KSRTC Mangalore and Puttur divisions will introduce eco-friendly electric buses on prominent routes in Dakshina Kannada district as well as inter-district destinations soon.
The state govt has sanctioned 45 electric buses to Mangalore division and 40 buses to Puttur division. The process of handing over the vehicles is under progress. The new electric buses sanctioned by govt are expected to arrive soon. Government has sanctioned AC and non-AC electric buses. The buses will have the capacity to run about 200km after each recharge cycle of nearly two hours. Hence, it will be difficult to introduce electric buses on long- distance routes like Bengaluru and Mysuru.
The division has been preparing to set up charging stations at various depots and a tender process in this regard has also been initiated. While a station with the capacity of five charging points will be set up in Mangalore depot at Bejai, another with 15 points will be opened at Kuntikana
