The buses, which would be produced and sold by Bova, should produce 50 % fewer CO2 emissions and discharge fewer greenhouse gases than buses currently being used in Peru and should also consume less fuel. According to the Dutch authorities, the project should contribute to environmental protection in Peru by introducing new emission-reducing technology. 7.
