The public-school fleet sector


Public schools in California are well positioned to benefit by electrifying their school bus fleets:


  • Reduced operating costs
  • Fewer incidences of unscheduled maintenance
  • Lower maintenance costs

Also, by eliminating tailpipe emissions, buses no longer expose children to harmful diesel exhaust and fumes. School communities become safer and healthier.
