zingbus strengthens green mobility roadmap

zingbus, India’s leading intercity mobility platform, is strengthening its commitment to sustainable travel as electrification and climate action continue to shape long-distance mobility across India.

As Punjab prepares to roll out an EV-friendly policy framework to encourage clean mobility and infrastructure development, zingbus has already been advancing its green intercity roadmap through real-world deployment. Over the past few years, the company has focused on introducing electric intercity buses, integrating bio-toilet systems, and embedding climate-positive operational practices across its network.

As part of this sustainability roadmap, zingbus has deployed electric intercity buses on select high-demand corridors and rolled out bio-toilet systems across multiple services. This integrated approach supports zero-tailpipe-emission travel while also improving onboard hygiene and enabling water conservation reflecting a holistic view of green mobility where cleaner propulsion and responsible resource use go hand in hand.

Through its EV and sustainability initiatives, zingbus has helped neutralise over 593,000 kg of CO2 emissions, measured in partnership with its climate-impact partner Climes. These initiatives convert environmental intent into measurable, real-world outcomes.

Prashant Kumar, Co-founder of zingbus, said “At zingbus, sustainability is being built into the very foundation of intercity travel. From deploying electric buses on long-distance corridors to integrating bio-toilets and climate-positive operations, our focus is on translating intent into measurable impact. As India’s EV ecosystem evolves, we are committed to scaling solutions that reduce emissions, conserve resources, and make greener intercity mobility practical, comfortable, and accessible for millions of travellers.”

The climate impact achieved through these efforts is substantial and tangible. It is equivalent to growing 9,786 saplings over a period of 10 years, avoiding 272,835 days of household electricity consumption, and diverting 25,207 bags of waste from landfills through responsible recycling. Together, these outcomes reflect a meaningful contribution toward reducing environmental strain, conserving natural resources, and advancing long-term sustainability goals.

For zingbus, sustainability is not a single intervention but a system embedded into how intercity travel operates from cleaner propulsion and improved onboard hygiene to efficient long-distance route planning and operational optimisation.

Alongside EV buses, the introduction of bio-toilets across multiple services has enhanced passenger comfort while addressing sanitation and water conservation at scale. Together, these initiatives reduce environmental load and make sustainable intercity travel more practical for long-haul journeys.

With state-level EV initiatives creating an enabling environment for cleaner mobility, zingbus continues to align its deployments with long-term sustainability goals. The company is currently in advanced stages of deploying electric buses on high-demand intercity corridors, including the Delhi–Amritsar route, demonstrating how electric mobility can effectively power long-distance travel beyond city limits.
