In 2026, the first electric buses will start operating on suburban routes in Belarus, reported on the STB TV channel.
Electric buses with a range of 100 km are currently undergoing trials. Such transport will shuttle between Minsk and satellite towns. However, employees of the Astravets NPP will be the first to test them.
According to Oleg Bytsko, Deputy General Director for Innovative Development of the "Belkommunmash" holding, plans are underway to modernize this electric bus next year, extending its autonomous range to 250 km and enabling express charging. He emphasized that the head of state has set the task of ensuring suburban transportation specifically with electric transport.
It is worth recalling that at a meeting in mid-November, Alexander Lukashenka noted that electric transport is developing in the country, and not only in large cities. This includes pilot projects for converting public transport to electric, which are being implemented in Shklov, Zhodino, and Novopolotsk. In his opinion, on some routes, minibuses can be replaced by buses, not only those with internal combustion engines but also electric buses.
A representative of "Belkommunmash" announced that next year such an electric bus will definitely be transporting passengers between Minsk and Smolevichi. And then, according to him, the other satellite cities will also be equipped with this type of transport.
New electric buses are designed with suburban conditions in mind. This includes enhanced comfort seats, seat belts, and special requirements for body durability. Since this development is a new experience for the Belarusian enterprise, scientists assisted the designers with calculations and nuances.
