Locating Funding for Electric School Buses

▤ Summary

Considering that studies have shown that air pollution can directly harm student test scores, on top of the other health risks, schools have more incentive than ever to go electric. Most of the major manufacturers, such as Thomas Built and Blue Bird, will work with interested districts to help them find funding. Some states, such as New York and California, are taking the lead in encouraging the adoption of electric vehicles. For many districts, the solution isnt to find a single "angel" donor to cover the cost of the buses but to seek funding from a variety of sources. In short, theres no single all-in-one source for school bus funding, but EV upgrades are entirely possible with some research and work.
