WEBINAR: Electrification and the Tender Reset

I dette 30 minutter lange webinaret forklarer Jim Rogers og Abdelkrim Benamar hvordan lading påvirker batteriets ytelse, pålitelighet og sikkerhet. De tar for seg utfordringer knyttet til elektriske flåter, som SoC-nøyaktighet, ytelsesvariasjoner og nedbrytning som kan forebygges, og foreslår praktiske justeringer for å forlenge batteriets levetid og forbedre driftsstabiliteten.

Watch the Webinar with Tenix and Former CEO of Tide Buss, Roger Harkestad

In this webinar, electrification and the tender reset, we discuss how electrification affects the tender process and how operators should adapt.

Om dette webinaret

How does electrification change the way bus tenders are won and lost?

In this webinar, Jim Rogers (Sales Director UK & Ireland, Tenix) interviews Roger Harkestad, former Group CEO of Tidevann, one of the largest bus operators in Norway and Denmark, about the realities of delivering large-scale electric bus contracts in highly competitive public tender markets.

Drawing on Norway’s early transition to electric buses, Roger shares practical lessons from scaling electric fleets, adapting operations, and managing the new risks introduced by electrification. The discussion focuses specifically on how electric buses changed procurement strategy, operational planning, and competitive advantage for both PTAs and operators.

Topics include:

  • What PTAs and operators should do differently going forward
  • How electrification changed tender competition
  • Why operational systems have become as important as the buses themselves
  • The risks operators underestimated in early electric tenders
  • The role of charging, grid capacity, and live operational control
  • Lessons from the Nordic market for the UK’s transition to franchising and electric fleets
