With buses operated by the Telangana State Road Transport Corporation (TGSRTC) consuming nearly 6 lakh litres of fuel each day, efforts are under way to reduce the resulting carbon footprint, estimated at around 1,200 kg of carbon dioxide emissions.

TGSRTC Vice-Chairman and Managing Director V. Nagi Reddy said this was a key factor driving the State-run undertaking’s push towards electric mobility.
