Public transport is a basic instrument for sustainable mobility in urban areas. The core of public transport in cities is often electrified railway system, underground and trams. Trolleybuses are also widely used in many countries. Therefore, urban public transport is one of the most electrified transport subsystems. The process of implementing electric buses is currently seen in Poland, and its economic effectiveness depends, among other things, on the energy prices and energy mix of the country. Electric energy from non-renewable sources increases both own costs and external costs, which impacts the effectiveness of mobility. The chapter presents an overview of the directions of the European transport policy in the field of electromobility development. A particular emphasis has been put on presenting the problems of electromobility in Polish conditions, as well as systematizing the provision of strategic documents in the context of its implementation and development. The chapter also presents a TCO comparative analysis for the electric bus and combustion bus.
