The objective of the ZeEUS User Group is to enlarge the assessment and validation of the ZeEUS concepts and results through independent expertise. This Working Group is external to the ZeEUS consortium, which provides a broad basis of support and external buy-in for the on-going developments and achievements of the project.
The User Group follows the progress of the project, actively participates in debates, discussions, and assessment exercises on major issues that arise during the project. The members of the User Group are also able to provide valuable advice and external feedback in the project advancements and enable the ZeEUS consortium to widen the project's results, adapting them to the needs of specific stakeholders. The Group is chaired by UITP.
The ZeEUS User Group is composed of public transport authorities and operators interested in implementing high capacity e-buses into their fleets. The Group members wish to learn from the project and find answers to their questions about the electrification of buses. The ZeEUS User Group is therefore a platform to share knowledge and provide necessary guidelines. The Group is linked directly with the ZeEUS Observatory, thanks to which the members obtain a full picture of all technologies as well as related challenges and benefits.
