With the transition to zero-emission battery-electric and hydrogen-powered models, buses will become even more sustainable. The transformation of our industry is in full swing, and the need for emission-free public mobility continues to grow. I am therefore firmly convinced that we are in the \u2018decade of the bus\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, to enable the widespread use of zero-emission buses, manufacturers, decision makers, energy suppliers, and bus operators must work closely together. We need a realistic legal framework and must collaborate to develop the necessary infrastructure.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mr Oberw\u00f6rder was elected by members of ACEA\u2019s bus and coach division, which brings together Europe\u2019s five main bus and coach manufacturers: Daimler Truck, Iveco Group, MAN, Scania, and Volvo Group. Mr Oberw\u00f6rder has taken over the function from Domenico Nucera, President of Iveco Bus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t<blockquote class=\"shareable-blockquote\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"content\">The European
