SHERIDAN, WYOMING – April 20, 2025 - Pioneering Partnership Brings Level 4 Automated Buses to Airports
Fusion Processing and Construct Invest announce strategic collaboration
Fusion Processing has partnered with Construct Invest to deliver fully automated Level 4 electric buses, tailored for airport passenger transport. This innovation leverages Fusion’s proven CAVstar automated drive system, aiming to modernize ground transportation at airports with zero-emission, driverless vehicles.
A Leap Toward Smarter, Greener Travel
Integrated automation enhances performance and efficiency
The newly announced solution offers an all-in-one automated transport system that significantly enhances airport operations while improving the passenger experience. With over 90,000 kilometers of in-field analysis, Fusion’s CAVstar system has demonstrated a 7% energy saving compared to manually driven vehicles—an advantage projected to rise to 20% in urban settings.
Efficiency Meets Sustainability
Lower operating costs and safer, smoother rides
Automated buses offer several benefits, including safer travel by removing human error, reduced wear on vehicle components thanks to the CAVstar system’s gentle driving, and operational cost savings of up to 30%. Additionally, in suitable environments, a remote operator can oversee multiple vehicles, increasing workforce efficiency.
“Airports seek increased efficiency in their ground transportation networks as they aim to reduce their carbon footprints and realize cost savings,” said Jim Hutchinson, CEO of Fusion Processing. “We’re working in partnership with Construct Invest and can now offer airports an integrated transport solution featuring fully automated buses utilising our CAVstar ADS to reduce costs, improve sustainability and safety, and offer a better service for passengers.”
Driving Innovation at Scale
Construct Invest highlights future-ready transport goals
Construct Invest’s mission to accelerate autonomous vehicle deployment is well aligned with Fusion’s cutting-edge technology.
“We’re thrilled to welcome Fusion Processing into the Construct Invest’s consortium,” said Karsten Baltzer, CEO, Construct Invest. “Fusion’s CAVstar technology is not only field-proven but also aligns perfectly with our commitment to sustainable and innovative transport solutions.”
On Display at PTE World
Live demonstrations showcase the technology in action
Fusion Processing and Construct Invest are presenting their automated transport solution this week at the Passenger Terminal Expo & Conference (PTE World), taking place April 8–10 in Madrid, Spain.
