First fully electrified Postbus garage in Switzerland

The electric postbus hall in Affoltern am Albis is officially opened on March 28. It is fully geared towards electromobility and deliberately lacks any refueling facilities for diesel fuel. Instead, there are charging stations where electric Postbuses can be charged within a few hours. The hall has space for 26 articulated buses.

Around 1000 solar modules were installed on the roof, providing a good 400 kilowatt peak of power. Battery storage has been avoided for the time being for cost reasons, but everything has been prepared for possible storage at a later date.

For washing the buses, there is an internal wastewater treatment plant so that the water can be washed several times, as well as a 36,000-liter rainwater tank for the final rinse.
