Zero-emission public transport, powered by renewable energy, is fast becoming the next stop for transport networks in cities across the world. With the number of buses in operation increasing significantly, hydrogen power can now be considered an efficient solution available for operators to meet their net zero targets, while providing passengers with an efficient, clean, and sustainable mode of transport. 

Ballard Power Systems delivers fuel cell power for a sustainable planet, using considerable fuel cell expertise built up over more than 40 years to provide real-world solutions to global customers. Today, Ballard has over 1,600 buses in operation in more than 70 cities worldwide – with several new fleets due to be launched in 2024 – making Ballard the largest fuel cell supplier with more than 150 million kilometres of proven experience. 

Fuel cell electric buses powered by hydrogen are the only zero-emission technology to offer one-to-one replacement of vehicles in diesel fleets, with proven range, complete route flexibility, short refueling time and similar depot space utilization. Hydrogen fuel cells are the most viable solution to reduce emissions and create a cleaner future without compromise. 

The future of public transport is zero-emission and global government mandates, goals, and industry advancements are supporting a quick transition. As the industry shifts to make full decarbonization a reality, Ballard is ideally positioned with long-term experience and mature technology in real-world applications, ensuring the next stop for public transport around the world is hydrogen power.
