Will Propane Lead the School Bus Industry?
Summary
In a recent webinar, the President of ROUSH CleanTech, Todd Mouw, made a bold proclamation: "Propane [in school buses] is going to be the lead horse for the next decade," referring to its status as the most commonly used alt fuel. ROUSH CleanTech provides a variety of alt-fuel vehicles and conversion systems, so he doesnt have a horse in this race, so to speak. In the meantime, a fuel is needed to bridge the gap between gasoline and pure electric buses. However, the US possesses vast reserves of natural gas, and its far less environmentally disruptive to acquire, compared to gasoline or diesel. The school bus industry is aware that gasoline and diesel are on the way out, and propane is increasingly looking like the best all-around alternative while we wait for all-electric engines to become standard.
