It is also the scope for identifying the participation of institutions beyond and of the transportation ecosystem in the decision-making process of electric bus projects. <strong>Methodology/ Approach:</strong> The methodology is based in a feasibility study to assess the applicability of electric buses according to the operational and infrastructure characteristics of the cities. <strong>Findings: </strong>The achieved strategy presented a global vision of project elaboration, including the participation of steakholders who are not traditionally associated with planning, but are an active part of the services provision. <strong>Research Implication:</strong> Based on the project evaluation strategy proposed is possible to reduce market or technology uncertainties, to anticipate and mitigate the identified risks to provide safer recommendations to decision makers. <strong>Originality/Value of paper: </strong>transportation planners and decision maker will now be able to make decisions based on a thorough assessment of the compatibility of electric buses with the respective cities.</p>}, journal={Revista Produção e Desenvolvimento}, author={Souza, Filipe Leonardo Cardoso and Dantas, André Soares}, year={2020}, month={Sep.} }
