Solar bus

First in Spain The bus on solar batteries began to supervise in Roquetas de Mar (Almeria). Special solar panels installed on its roof, help the bus to get energy and move around the city at a maximum speed of 15 km / h. The bus is fully powered by the energy of the sun and is intended for the transportation of tourists.

The fare for such an environmentally friendly transport is 10 EUR for adults on a full route and 4 for a short trip. Children will have to pay 2 to 3 EUR depending on their age. The cost of travel includes a story about the history of the city and the main sights that meet on the route.

Not all have positively reacted to the appearance of the new vehicle. So the trade union of taxi drivers saw in this know-how a direct threat to their work, which does not bring any big profits because of the economic crisis in the country. In this regard, the official presentation of the bus was postponed at the last moment. However, it will not directly compete either taxi drivers or bicycle rental companies.
