🚍⚡️ #London has reached a major environmental milestone, with more than 3,000 zero-emission #buses now in service, representing around a third of #Transport for London’s fleet ahead of Clean Air Day. The number has increased from just 30 electric buses in 2016, making London home to the largest zero-emission bus fleet in Western #Europe. #TfL estimates a fully zero-emission bus fleet could save five million tonnes of carbon over the next 20 years, while the current fleet already cuts emissions by more than 100,000 tonnes of CO₂ annually. All new London buses have been zero-emission since 2021. TfL has also completed the conversion of lighting at around 12,000 bus shelters to LED #technology, reducing energy use by more than half and improving visibility. The 3,000th zero-emission bus is operating on route 165 between #Romford and #Rainham.
