Shenzhen. The southern Chinese metropolis – home to 12 million residents – is located near Hong Kong. It is also the first city in China to be serviced exclusively by electric buses.

According to local press sources, by October, at almost the same time that the UN climate conference COP-23 kicked off in Bonn, Germany, all of the cities 15,000 buses had been converted to electric power. The city's transport authority says that this will save some 1.18 million cubic tons of greenhouse gas emissions each year. Shenzhen's taxis are also scheduled to be converted to electric by the year 2020. In order to make electric autos visible in traffic, China has introduced green license plates (see title image) for them; internal combustion vehicles in China have blue plates.
