Project Description
The transition to electric public transport offers an opportunity to improve infrastructure and modernize public transport services, as well as reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve management and concessions. Although there are high initial costs, it is possible to make this transition through financial structuring, contractual guarantees, revision of concession contracts and an adequate legal and regulatory framework. Overcoming institutional and financial barriers is essential, and new models of concession contracts are including targets and incentives for electromobility. The advantages and challenges of the transition, especially in the financial aspect, are addressed in this document.
The Transition to Electromobility in Brazilian Cities Project, financed by the Clean Technology Fund, the CTF, of the Climate Investment Funds (CIF), is the result of partnerships: the World Bank, the Ministry of Regional Development (MDR) and the Brazilian Institute of Development and Sustainability (IABS).
