Italy Electric Bus Market to Grow with a CAGR of 8.50% through 2030

Growing government support for electrification, rising focus on sustainable public transport, and advancements in battery technology are the factors driving the market in the forecast period 2026-2030.

 

According to TechSci Research report, “Italy Electric Bus Market – By Region, Competition, Opportunities and Forecast, 2020-2030F”, The Italy Electric Bus Market was valued at USD 652.68 Million in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 1064.83 Million by 2030 with a CAGR of 8.50% during the forecast period.

The Italy electric bus market is evolving amid shifting procurement strategies, increasing public investment in sustainable mobility, and the rising influence of structured national tenders. The market’s progress is closely tied to large-scale public procurement programs managed by entities such as Consip and regional transport authorities, which are channeling significant funding into electric fleet expansion. The introduction of multi-million-euro tenders for hundreds of battery-electric buses reflects a strategic shift from fragmented purchases to consolidated bulk orders, streamlining deployment and cost efficiencies. The emergence of turnkey partnerships involving vehicle supply, charging infrastructure, and long-term service agreements is reshaping the market approach for operators and manufacturers alike.

The expansion of Italy’s EV charging infrastructure, now exceeding 65,000 public points with a growing share of fast and ultra-fast chargers, is fostering confidence among transport operators for large-scale electrification projects. Another key factor is the national push toward integrated urban mobility models, where electric buses play a central role in multimodal transport networks, supported by smart energy management and digital fleet monitoring systems. The market is further propelled by collaborative efforts between municipal authorities and private mobility firms to align urban development plans with sustainable transport goals. Regulatory compliance, coupled with the ambition to achieve low-emission zones in major cities, is intensifying the demand for zero-emission bus fleets across Italy’s public transport landscape.

Italy Electric Bus Market Is Segmented by Battery Type, Battery Capacity, Length, Seating Capacity, Propulsion, and Region.

​Lithium-ion batteries recorded the fastest growth in Italy’s electric bus market in 2024 due to their high energy density, extended lifespan, and cost-effectiveness. The ability of lithium-ion technology to support longer driving ranges with quicker charging cycles made it the most practical choice for public transport fleets. Operators favored lithium-ion for its reliability in maintaining consistent performance across various operational demands, especially in urban routes with intensive daily use. The improvement in battery management systems further enhanced the appeal of lithium-ion by increasing safety standards and optimizing energy efficiency. As battery prices continued to decline and integration with advanced charging systems became smoother, lithium-ion emerged as the leading battery type adopted by most manufacturers and transit agencies for new electric bus fleets.

The South & Islands region achieved the fastest growth in electric bus deployment in 2024, driven by increased investments in sustainable transport and targeted funding for mobility improvement projects. The region saw a sharp rise in fleet electrification initiatives aimed at modernizing public transport systems and reducing emissions. Local authorities focused on acquiring electric buses suited for both urban and intercity routes, ensuring versatility in fleet operations. The expansion of charging infrastructure, especially in key transit hubs and depots, supported this growth. The proactive approach of regional administrations helped accelerate the shift toward electric mobility across diverse service areas.

“The rise of integrated mobility partnerships and service-oriented business models is transforming the electric bus market. Manufacturers, technology providers, energy companies, and public transport operators are collaborating to offer comprehensive mobility solutions that go beyond vehicle supply. These partnerships encompass aspects such as vehicle leasing, battery-as-a-service models, charging infrastructure provision, and fleet management support. The integration of such services helps operators overcome financial and operational barriers associated with electric bus deployment. Collaborative business models enable risk-sharing among stakeholders and provide operators with access to bundled solutions that simplify fleet electrification processes. Integrated mobility platforms often include data analytics, predictive maintenance, and real-time monitoring services, enhancing operational efficiency and decision-making capabilities. The emergence of pay-per-use models and managed service agreements reflects a shift towards value-driven solutions rather than traditional vehicle ownership. These partnerships facilitate the scaling of electric bus fleets by reducing upfront investment requirements and streamlining operational management”, said Mr. Karan Chechi, Research Director of TechSci Research, a research-based global management consulting firm.
