Welcome to the Future of Transportation
Electric school buses make sense on so many levels
- Reduced fuel and maintenance costs
- Zero emissions
- Quiet, clean operation
- Technology to optimize performance
- Community appreciation
- Available tax credits & grants
Why the moment is now
Electric school bus adoption continues to expand aggressively in the United States. Here’s why:
- Diesel exhaust is a known cause of health issues
- Electric school buses reduce greenhouse gas emissions
- Exciting new vehicles are energizing decision-makers and stakeholders
- Favorable financing sources accelerate adoption
- Lower total cost of ownership
School bus fleet decision-makers can take advantage of this time and plan a path to electrification. And DeVivo has everything you need.
“Electric school buses are worth three times what a normal school bus would be”
Jim Lopez, assistant superintendent for transportation for the Harrison County school district in West Virginia (Education Week 2024)
LEADING THE CHARGE TO ELECTRIFICATION
Accelerated adoption is expected with government funding made possible through the EPA’s Clean School Bus Program. This program provides funding to replace existing school buses with zero-emission and low-emission models.
