Ebusco signs contract with NIAG, part of the RETHMANN Group
Deurne, 14 December 2022 – Ebusco (Euronext: EBUS), a pioneer and frontrunner in the development of electric buses and charging systems, has signed a contract with NIAG (like Transdev part of the RETHMANN Group) for 12 Ebusco 3.0 12-meter buses. The delivery of these buses is planned for end 2023.
The new 12 Ebusco 3.0 12-meter buses will be used by public transport company NIAG. NIAG will deploy the busses in the district of Wesel and Kleve. For this order, Ebusco competed against other preferred suppliers in a so-called mini-tender.

NIAG creates connections for the region in two core business areas: local public transport and logistics. With its bus route network of more than 2,200 kilometres and 36.5 million passengers per year, NIAG is the largest provider of public bus transport in the Lower Rhine region.
Hendrik Vonnegut, board member at NIAG comments: “We are pleased to have ordered the first 12 electric buses for NIAG from Ebusco. This initial order is the first important step towards the electrification of the entire bus fleet.”
Peter Bijvelds, CEO of Ebusco comments: “We are delighted with this collaboration with NIAG/Transdev, as we share the commitment to drive the transition to zero emission public transport, in which Transdev is an industry leader. Having already delivered more than 170 buses to Transdev, this order is a clear recognition for Ebusco and we look forward to further expanding our successful partnership with Transdev and NIAG.”
