It has been a pleasure to support UITP with their training across Middle East and UK. This training has helped public transport authorities, operators, and other stakeholders make informed decisions about electric bus procurement, financing, and operations.

UITP Electric Bus Training in the Middle East

UITP has been actively delivering training on electric buses in the Middle East over the past few months. In September and October 2023, UITP conducted diploma training in electric buses in Dubai to Roads and Transport Authority (RTA). The training covers topics such as procuring electric buses and life cycle analysis. This was a valuable opportunity to share expertise and lessons learned in this fast-moving sector.

Funding and Financing of Public Transport

UITP also recently hosted a Funding and Financing of Public Transport event in London in November 2023. This event focused on funding and financing public transport covering areas such as government grants and green bonds. The training provided participants with insights into the latest funding and financing options for sustainable public transport projects.
