Bihar has launched its first e-bus charging station in Purnia, with plans to complete similar infrastructure in Patna, Gaya, Darbhanga, Muzaffarpur, and Bhagalpur by the end of November.
Bihar is accelerating its transition to electric public transport by expanding the network of e-bus charging stations across the state. The first such facility has become operational in Purnia, marking a significant step in the state's green mobility initiative.
Officials have set a target to complete the installation of charging infrastructure in five other key divisions by the end of November. These divisions include Patna, Gaya, Darbhanga, Muzaffarpur, and Bhagalpur.
The expansion aims to support the growing fleet of electric buses and ensure reliable connectivity for commuters. By establishing these stations in major urban centers, the state government intends to reduce dependency on fossil fuels and lower carbon emissions in the transport sector.
The project reflects a broader strategy to modernize public transport infrastructure in Bihar. The completion of these stations is expected to facilitate smoother operations for e-buses and enhance the overall efficiency of the state's public transit system.
