TDIC will bring world's first aero-emission electric buses to Sir Bani Yas Island
Abu Dhabi, Jan 20, 2010 (WAM)- Tourism Development and Investment Company (TDIC), a master developer of major cultural, residential and tourism destinations in Abu Dhabi, yesterday announced that the company has placed an order for two zero-emission all-electric buses to Abu Dhabi for operation on Sir Bani Yas Island.
In line with TDIC's environmental policies which adhere to global sustainability standards, these vehicles will be introduced from March 2010 to Desert Islands. This makes Sir Bani Yas Island, the 87-square kilometre natural island, the first destination in the world to have a public transportation system run purely on all-electric buses.
Produced by US-based bus manufacturer DesignLine Corporation specifically to suit the Middle East climatic conditions, the technologically-advanced, environmentally-friendly vehicles offer the perfect transport solution for Sir Ban Yas, namely for their low noise, low vibration, low maintenance costs and zero carbon emissions.
The announcement was released at the 2010 World Future Energy Summit (WFES). TDIC's participation at the event is a reflection of the significant environmental and sustainable advances the company has made since its inception in 2005.
