The road to sustainable cities

Join the 
Platform

The Clean Bus Europe Platform provides different services and levels of support. Are you a city representative looking to learn about clean bus deployment? Read here how you can become a Follower and how the Platform can help you!

The Platform's cities have been categorised in 3 main profiles: Host, Target and Follower. While Host and Target cities have been selected in line with project requirements, the Clean Bus Europe Platform is looking to expand its network of Follower Cities that want to learn about clean bus deployment. 

Host Cities

The Platform's Host Cities are cities that have or are introducing clean buses in their regular transport operation, beyond individual pilot projects. A Host City has gained solid experience in the operation of, at least one technology, in one or more lines, and is beyond the piloting phase. 

Host Cities will support the Platform by:

  • Supporting knowledge transfer and capacity building on clean bus deployment
  • Hosting the study tours for Target Cities to showcase the local system and exchange on practical experience, including a technical visit.

The current Host cities have been selected by the Consortium in line with project requirements and then approved by the EC.

Target Cities

Target Cities are the main beneficiaries of the Platform.

A Target City is a Full Member of the Clean Bus Europe Platform provided that:

  • The city has joined the Clean Bus Europe Platform by signing the letter of intent.
  • The city signed the Clean Bus Declaration

A Target City will enjoy the following benefits from the Platform:

  • Capacity building (webinars, study visits)
