The public transport operator in Cologne, Regionalverkehr Köln GmbH (RVK), has once again chosen our company as the supplier of hydrogen-powered buses, the Solaris announced.
After delivery, the hydrogen fleet in Cologne will number 84 Solaris buses.
There are already 64 Solaris hydrogen buses – from several previous orders – in passenger service in Cologne or in delivery process. Solaris is now adding an order for additional 20 hydrogen buses, including 11 in an articulated version. The delivery of the newly ordered buses is scheduled for the first half of 2025. The continued investment in hydrogen-based public transportation confirms Cologne’s commitment to the development of hydrogen technology, which is becoming the foundation for the city’s public transportation system.
“For us, another order for Solaris hydrogen buses of this number demonstrates the high level of confidence in our company and its products. It’s also a sign that the development toward innovative and emission-free public transportation is progressing rapidly. We are proud that RVK, as a pioneer in this field, has once again opted for our vehicles and that our long-standing, trusting cooperation can be further strengthened in this way,” said Christian Goll, Managing Director of Solaris Deutschland GmbH.
