Answered by Deputy Minister for Climate Change | Answered on 02/03/2023

To date, we have invested £8.519m to purchase electric buses for the Traws Cymru Network. This includes the provision of associated infrastructure and depots.

We have also provided a commercial loan to Newport Transport Ltd of £1.85m to purchase electric buses and grants to Cardiff and Newport councils of £8m and £6.323m, respectively, to support them to purchase electric buses.
