AUSTRALIA’S FIRST all-electric bus depot has been opened in Currumbin and is powered by 100 per cent renewable energy, including a 56-kilowatt solar panel array.
It is expected the depot will house 14 buses, with some travelling the 777 route from the airport to Coolangatta.
The ‘green depot’ in the coastal suburb of Currumbin is part of Kinetic’s south-east Queensland bus operation Surfside
