In the coming year, ÖBB Postbus will be turning its bus services green! The company has been investing in testing alternative and emission-free drive systems for the past several years. Up to now, battery-powered electric engines were seen as the best climate-friendly alternative to diesel fuelled buses. However, climate-neutral hydrogen buses offer a completely new approach!
Five of these hydrogen-powered buses have already been integrated into the public transport network during the past two years. With this technology, ÖBB Postbus is positioning itself as a pioneer in alternative drive systems in Austrian regional bus transport and is the first bus company to use hydrogen buses in intercity transport, thereby setting an example for climate-neutral mobility. The goal is to operate a total of 36 hydrogen buses in the Villach area by the end of May 2026 - 35 of them on regional services and one on urban services in Villach.
