Tallinn Receives First Batch of New Electric Trolleybuses

Tallinn, Estonia – The city of Tallinn today took delivery of its initial three new Škoda trolleybuses, marking a significant step in its modernization of its public transport system. These vehicles are scheduled to begin operating on city lines starting July 1st. The arrival follows a tender process completed in 2024, resulting in Tallinn’s acquisition of a total of 40 new trolleybuses.

The new fleet incorporates advanced technology and, crucially, the capability to operate solely on battery power, offering increased flexibility and environmental benefits. This investment represents a substantial upgrade to Tallinn’s existing trolleybus network. The vehicles are designed to enhance operational efficiency and reduce the city’s carbon footprint.

The purchase was the result of a competitive tender and reflects Tallinn’s ongoing commitment to sustainable transportation solutions. City officials anticipate the expanded fleet will improve service reliability and cater to evolving passenger needs within the Tallinn metropolitan area. The remaining 37 trolleybuses are expected to arrive over the coming months, completing the ambitious project.
