Madrid public transportation company committed to offering greener buses

Among these projects, carried out in collaboration with other companies, the EMT will launch a ‘dual-fuel’ initiative, which consists of an adaptation of a conventional diesel combustion engine to another system allowing simultaneous or alternative use of diesel and natural gas. In the short term, the company plans to test the performance of this technology in Madrid streets.

Moreover, the operator has already approved the budget for 2013 with a starting investment of 37.9 million euros. The 34.7 percent of this amount, i.e. 13.15 million euros, will be allocated to the purchase of 42 new compressed natural gas-powered buses.

This fleet will include 24 Iveco Citelis CNG assembled by Tata Hispano and 18 articulated MAN NG313F CNG assembled by Castrosua. This renewal responds to the municipal commitment to cleaner and more sustainable fuels than diesel. In addition, buses expected for 2013 offer the market’s best ratios of performance and consumption.
