<p>In 2030, emissions from the public bus transport in the Netherlands must be reduced to zero ('zero emission'). This must yield in more than 300 kton CO2 reduction compared to the current emmission level. Electric bus transport is expected to deliver one important contribution to this transition. For the functioning of an electric public bus transport system, charging infrastructure and optimal capacity connections to the electricity grid are crucial. A timely roll out strategy of this energy transition in the public transport must be cost efficient to keep public transportion cheap and reliable. Effective cooperation in the chain between muncipalities, transportation companies en grid operators is crucial for timely availability of charging infrastructure against the lowest social costs. In this research we point out the main steps in order to facility the transition towards zero emission bus transportation.</p>
