OCEÂNTIA is a 100% Portuguese company that has developed new models for electric buses with 0% CO2 emissions, high capacity batteries, a modern and attractive design, and high interior comfort, ideal for public transport and school transport in companies and municipalities.
This is the promoter's fourth campaign, after raising 795,000€, to produce the first 0% CO2 emission buses (Oceântia Electric Buses, Oceântia Buses II, III and IV).
This campaign aims to support the project and grant liquidity to produce another 0% CO2 emission bus, ordered a few weeks ago by the Municipality of Coimbra.
See the latest bus sold to a Portuguese municipality in the images below.
The company has already received orders for the supply of electric buses to 10 Portuguese Municipalities, which have secured community funding for their purchase under the POSEUR program - Operational Program for Sustainability and Efficiency in the Use of Resources.
Each OCEÂNTIA electric bus that replaces an old combustion engine bus will save up to more than 1.000 tons of CO2 over its lifetime.
This new electric model has attracted the interest of Municipalities and Transportation Operators to be used in public passenger transport services and school transport services.

This loan will be repaid using the funds from the already agreed upon sale of the bus to a municipality.
Additionally, it is relevant to mention that there is EU funding available, under the Recovery and Resilience Program, to support Municipalities and Private Operators in the renovation and acquisition of new fleets of electric buses. In Portugal, this figure is above 100 million euros of investment for the acquisition of electric buses in the next 3 years. Similar funding is available in Spain and the rest of Europe. As a consequence, there is increased demand for electric buses and several organizations have shown interest in the purchase of this model.

Shareholder's pledge - Valter Duarte e João Lino
OCEÂNTIA is a Portuguese start-up, created by a group of Portuguese engineers, dedicated to the production and marketing of new models of electric buses with zero CO2 emissions. The company was born in 2020, followed by the pandemic crisis, which did not dissuade its founders, given their confidence in the product, and increased the debate on the need for green alternatives.
Although the company is yet to start its commercial activity, Oceântia has a portfolio of potential customers interested in renewing their bus fleets, replacing fossil combustion engines with electric buses. Among the potential buyers are municipalities, public and private carriers, schools, and tourism services.
This interest is reinforced by the current availability of considerable EU funding under the Recovery and Resilience Program to support the purchase of electric buses.
