Consat Telematics leads the transition to electrified public transportation

The transition to sustainable transport is one of the great challenges of our time. Consat Telematics is committed to reducing the environmental impact of public transport through innovative creation and widespread implementation. Their progress in developing advanced solutions for electromobility positions them at the forefront of future transport. By integrating the latest software technology with comprehensive data analysis, they are making significant strides towards realising the vision of intelligent and sustainable transport solutions across multiple markets.

In line with the EU's ambitious climate goals, which aim to reduce carbon emissions by 40% by 2030, Consat Telematics contributes its technologies to the green transition. Their innovations support Europe's journey towards a more sustainable future. Reflecting this trend, there are initiatives like the Dutch provinces' commitment to exclusively use zero-emission buses from 2025, and similar pledges have been made in cities such as Athens, Paris, Madrid, as well as nationally by Norway.

Consat Telematics stands out by delivering a comprehensive solution for electromobility that has become popular among transport authorities and operators globally.

– “Our promise is a user-centred intelligent solution for public transport that is scalable and adaptable, but never compromises on quality, reliability, and safety. By combining real-time monitoring with advanced data collection and the latest in charging technology, we promote efficient energy use. Furthermore, our innovations enhance efficiency for both electrified and traditional vehicles, thanks to improved traffic management and smart charging," says Pär Thuresson, CEO for Consat Telematics.

Consat Telematics' supports public transport operators and authorities in the world in their transition to greener forms of energy, contributing to reduced emissions within the transport sector. By putting their customers at the centre and offering a flexible solution, they ensure that more organisations can access better data to monitor, manage, and enhance their operations.

One example of the success is the efforts in West Sweden, where Västtrafik ambitiously aims to electrify its entire bus fleet before 2030. This initiative has already placed West Sweden in a leading position in the development of electrified traffic.

Norway has been progressively introducing electric buses and battery-powered ferries in its public transport systems across various cities, with the ambitious goal to have all buses in major cities run on electricity or other forms of renewable energy by 2025. To fully leverage the advantages of electromobility, access to the correct data from various parts of the ecosystem is essential. Henning Berthelsen, Connect Bus AS says “To deliver sustainability and profitable operation we need to have the data from the buses, from the charging system and the entire ecosystem. To handle this, we need Consat Telematics”.

By offering innovative solutions that facilitate a smooth transition to electrified mobility, Consat Telematics plays a crucial role in shaping more efficient and greener public transportation solutions worldwide, always at the forefront of innovation and technological advancement.
