Big Lemon Buses

The Big Lemon

Local bus company, The Big Lemon, has some hugely ambitious goals. They envision every community in the UK having access to affordable, sustainable transport with zero emissions, powered and owned by the local community.

Starting in 2007 with buses running on waste cooking oil from local pubs and restaurants, The Big Lemon is now expanding their fleet of buses with a new goal: to be the UK's first all-electric route network. With solar power at their bus depot to charge their rapidly growing fleet of electric buses, The Big Lemon are storming ahead in pursuit of their goals, setting a fine example for bus companies nationwide.
