Context :
BEST procures 32 electric buses on wet lease in
Mumbai, to be operational soon
Extract
:
Ø The
Brihanmumbai Electric Supply and Transport (BEST) has procured 32 electric
buses on wet lease, and it will soon begin operating in the city.
Ø Under
the wet lease model, BEST does not own the buses, but gets the
buses from contractors who provide them for a fixed per-kilometre
rate.
{ My arguments for “ Per Km rate “ :
This clause will force
the party leasing the buses (to BEST), to set up
Battery Charging
Stations, on its own- since their bus will stop earning , the moment it
Ø “The buses have been procured and will begin operations in the city soon. More electric buses will also be procured soon.” said a senior BEST official. A total of 340 electric buses will be procured by BEST.
These buses have a capacity of 31
passengers and can travel up to 200km in a
single charge.
