The company "PC Transport Systems" (PC TS), which produces more than 50% of Russian trams, has made significant progress in localizing its products, increasing the share of Russian components to 95% in trams and about 80% in trolleybuses.
At the same time, the company continues to depend on imported electronic components, most of which come from China. The company's CEO, Alexander Dubrovkin, noted that a complete transition to domestic electronics is possible only with the development of the corresponding industry in Russia.
Over the past two years, PC TS has managed to replace 98% of imported components. For example, gearboxes, previously purchased in the Czech Republic, are now produced in Tver. However, electronics continue to be a vulnerable part of production, accounting for up to 40% of the cost of a tram.
Due to international sanctions that blocked exports to the CIS countries and far abroad, where foreign investments are often required, the company has focused on the Russian market. Currently, 65 Russian cities use trams, of which more than 50% have been in operation for more than 16 years.
