TO ZERO – our company goal is in the name. By retrofitting existing vehicles and converting new vehicles to electric drive, we aim to use technical innovation to create a resource-saving form of transportation. Our focus here is primarily on local public transport. Public transportation plays a central role in the daily lives of nearly 30 million people, often in the form of public buses. However, these are usually powered by fossil fuels, which leads to noise as well as harmful exhaust fumes and emissions. As traffic densities continue to rise, so does this pollution. We want to counter this with our work and are striving to reduce the emissions caused by bus traffic in the direction of zero.
