Why Events like This Matter

1. In-Person Insight
   Seeing vehicles like the Karsan eJEST in person and speaking directly with experienced team members lets transit leaders explore real-world solutions beyond the brochure. It’s a chance to ask meaningful questions, get tailored answers, and assess vehicle fit firsthand.
2. Trust and Relationship Building
   Transit procurement is about more than specs—it’s about support. Meeting representatives from Damera and Karsan helps you evaluate not only the product, but also the people behind it—people you’ll be working with for years to come.
3. Staying Ahead of Industry Trends
   Events like this are filled with expertise, case studies, and lessons from other agencies—all helping you stay ahead of funding shifts, technology advances, and service models like microtransit and paratransit.

More than Buses

At Damera, we do more than supply zero-emission buses. We partner with transit agencies to plan, implement, and sustain their transition to clean, efficient, and inclusive transportation systems.

As agencies across North America look to electrify their fleets, Damera provides strategic support across five key areas beyond vehicle delivery:

‍

🔌 1. Charging Infrastructure Deployment
We help agencies design and deploy tailored charging infrastructure—whether depot-based or on-route. Our team calculates fleet charging needs, advises on charger types (plug-in or pantograph), and supports integration with load management systems and renewable energy.

‍

📈 2. Strategic & Phased Implementation Planning
Transitioning to electric fleets requires careful planning. Damera supports agencies in setting SMART goals, designing phased rollout strategies, and running pilot programs to test vehicle performance, charging needs, and operational feasibility before scaling.

‍

📝 3. Procurement & Evaluation Guidance
We assist agencies in creating effective procurement frameworks—helping define technical specs (battery capacity, accessibility, range), evaluate lifecycle costs, and assess vendor proposals through weighted scoring systems that prioritize long-term value.

‍

⚡ 4. Load & Energy Management
To reduce electricity costs and increase sustainability, we advise on smart charging systems, depot energy management tools, and the integration of renewables and storage solutions. Our approach helps agencies manage demand and optimize energy use.

‍

👩‍🏫 5. Workforce Training & Upskilling
Technology is only as effective as the team behind it. Damera provides training for drivers on EV operation and for technicians on electric drivetrains, diagnostics, and charging systems. We also help create training partnerships with manufacturers and colleges to build long-term capacity.

More Than a Bus Supplier

Our mission is to make zero-emission transit practical, sustainable, and scalable. That means offering more than a product—we deliver complete solutions to support your transition.
