Naveen Patnaik flagged-off the first batch of JBM Ecolife e-buses in Berhampur
Date: March 11, 2024Haryana- JBM Group., a bus manufacturer., that the Chief Minister of Odisha, Naveen Patnaik flagged-off the first batch of JBM Ecolife e-buses in Berhampur.
200 air-conditioned e-buses will run in the cities of Cuttack, Bhubaneswar, and Berhampur as part of the order. With this flag-off, the corporation officially enters the country's eastern region.
Currently, more than 1,500 JBM electric buses are operating in ten Indian states and at key airports. JBM Auto has set up an end-to-end electric bus ecosystem, complete with power and charging infrastructure, at the depot to enable the smooth running of these buses.
Over the course of its ten-year operation, the recently introduced nine-meter JBM Ecolife electric bus, which is a zero-emission vehicle (ZEV), will save 420,000 liters of diesel and about 1,000 equivalent tonnes of carbon dioxide. Fast charging lithium-ion batteries power these buses, which are outfitted with all the latest amenities including CCTV cameras, stop request buttons, vehicle location and tracking systems, real-time passenger information systems (PIS), panic buttons for emergencies, and fire detection and suppression systems, to mention a few. Over 200 kilometers should be covered by the buses each day. It is a genuinely worldwide product because the ergonomically built dashboard offers drivers an easy-to-use and intuitive system that lets them focus on driving without interruptions.
Nishant Arya, Vice-Chairman & MD, JBM Group said that, We are grateful to the state administration for allowing us to serve the state and its citizens on this significant occasion as we join the Eastern market. These cutting-edge electric buses are safe, effective, comfortable, and will significantly reduce the amount of pollution in the city. Because we are dedicated to making sure everything runs smoothly, we have put up the necessary infrastructure for these electric buses' maintenance and charging.
