EMP/Concentric AB clinches supply contract in North American electric bus segment

July, 2023

Concentric AB has secured a significant contract to supply EMP branded electric water pumps to a major OEM in the North American electric school bus segment. This 14 MSEK award underscores the robust demand for the company’s highly-efficient electric water pump solutions, particularly in a market that is rapidly transitioning towards cleaner, electric transportation. This announcement comes amid rising interest in electrification, part of the Concentric AB group’s targets, as set out in our recent Capital Markets Day, where the electric bus segment was identified as a key growth area. 

 

According to a report published by Allied Market Research, the global electric bus market was estimated at $35.3 billion in 2021 and is expected to hit $439.7 billion by 2031, registering a CAGR of 29.5% from 2022 to 2031. This opportunity is further enhanced by ongoing government incentives aimed at promoting clean energy and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. These initiatives are creating a favorable environment for the adoption of electric vehicles, including buses, reinforcing Concentric AB’s strategic positioning in the market. The team at Concentric AB is proud to be at the forefront of this transition, contributing our state-of-the-art technology to help achieve sustainability targets while improving transportation efficiency across North America.  

“We believe this partnership signals not only a pivotal advancement for our company, but also for the broader shift toward a greener, more sustainable future.”, says Boris Gavric, SVP Engines Europe & Asia and Advanced Products.
