DIGIZITY: INDUSTRIAL RESEARCH FOR INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS TO DECARBONIZE, DIGITIZE AND AUTOMATE URBAN TRANSPORT WITH ZERO-EMISSION BUSES
Avanza, in collaboration with the Zaragoza City Council, will lead the largest PERTE R&D project for electric and connected vehicles. This two-year project aims to decarbonize, digitalize and automate urban transport with zero-emission buses.
DIGIZITY is the result of the union of bus, engine, component and on-board systems manufacturers, telecommunications equipment and a large fleet operator. Through the solution it will provide, Zaragoza will become a zero-emission city and will promote sustainable mobility with the transition from private vehicles to public transport.
