Government remains committed to supporting the introduction of 4,000 zero emission buses (ZEB) with over £525 million funding available this Parliament. Through our Low and Ultra Low Emission Bus Schemes, Government is already supporting the deployment of over 60 hydrogen fuel cell buses in England. Many local areas are seeking funding to introduce hydrogen fuel cell buses and associated infrastructure through the £270m Zero Emission Bus Regional Areas (ZEBRA) scheme, which will award funding to successful areas through the standard track in spring 2022.
