Electrifying Stagecoach Yorkshire – A Sustainable Transformation
Transitioning from a diesel-based fleet to electric
Transitioning from a diesel-based fleet to electric required overcoming several challenges:
- Infrastructure Overhaul
- Energy Management & Power Supply
- Optimising Fleet Operations
- Stakeholder Collaboration
Results & Impact
Improved Sustainability
Replacing diesel buses will significantly reduce emissions and improve air quality.
Lower Energy Costs
Smart energy management and solar power reduce reliance on expensive grid electricity.
Scalability
The project provides a scalable model for further expansion across other Stagecoach depots.
Operational Efficiency
VEV-IQ’s intelligent scheduling ensures costeffective charging and reliable fleet performance.
About Stagecoach Yorkshire
Stagecoach Yorkshire is at the forefront of the UK’s public transport shift towards cleaner, more sustainable operations through an ambitious electrification strategy.
Committed to creating a cleaner, more sustainable transport network, 57 electric buses will replace over two-thirds of the diesel fleet in Chesterfield and North Eastern Derbyshire in Spring 2025.
The Chesterfield depot has been modernised into a state-of-the-art charging and energy hub, marking the largest of four planned electrification projects.
The project is funded by Stagecoach itself, alongside Derbyshire County Council, and the UK Government’s ZEBRA 2 scheme.
