In recent years there has been universal agreement that traditional methods of fuelling buses and coaches need to be replaced with zero-emission alternatives. Zero-emission buses (ZEBs) are the latest development in bus technology and follow the introduction of low-emission buses and ultra-low emission buses. Bus companies have trialled and ordered considerable deliveries of electric, hydrogen and hybrid vehicles but the process hasn’t been without its problems, specifically around having the necessary infrastructure in place for charging batteries. Coach operators are starting to come on board too with longer distance journeys now possible.
Richard Walter examines developments in both the UK and overseas with an array of many previously unpublished and fascinating photographs of the myriad zero-emission vehicles now in service.
'In addition to the main manufacturers, there are some of the more unusual variants, including airport vehicles and coaches, and with a small section on overseas vehicles. The photos are generally good quality and have been taken in a variety of settings. In a few years time this will all seem slightly old fashioned and quirky, but the book does show a snapshot of the transition to zero emission vehicles. The technology is developing rapidly and keeping up with developments makes it interesting for enthusiasts.' * PSV Circle, March 2026 *
'Over 180 images are included, all in colour and reproduced to a high standard with the standout front cover drawing attention to the publication.' * Bus & Coach Buyer *
