Abstract:

The Volume – III report, considers two operating models for e-Buses, namely

1) PTAs (Public Transport Authorities) with all inhouse e-Bus operations and

2) PTAs (Public Transport Authorities with SPV structure and PPP model, requiring no Central Workshop.

In PTAs (Public Transport Authorities) with in-house operations, all the activities of administration, planning, contracting, monitoring, operations, repair and maintenance, and delivery. services are carried out in-house by the respective departments. PTAs with PPP operations focus on the administration, planning, contracting, and monitoring of e-Bus operations at the organizational level. Whereas, the physical operations, repair, maintenance, and delivery of services is carried out by private operators. This report proposes inclusion of e-Bus roles in the organisation structure of PTAs for the adoption of e-Buses under the above said operating models.
