Michael Matheson GLASGOW is set to host the UK s largest Electric Vehicle (EV) charging hub after ambitious £35 million changes are made to a South Side bus depot. Work has already begun to transform First Bus s Caledonia depot with space to charge up to 300 EV buses on site. This will provide vital infrastructure to support the introduction of a further 22 electric buses to Glasgow’s streets ahead of the COP26 United Nation’s Climate Change conference in November.
