School Transportation News - Transportation Directors Consider Path Toward 100-Percent Electric Fleets
Fifty school leaders gathered at the nation’s capital to educate themselves on the steps toward achieving a 100-percent electric fleet of school buses.
The first-ever Clean Energy Schools Symposium convened school decision-makers from 16 states who are transitioning their schools to clean energy. Generation180, a non-profit with the goal of inspiring and equipping people to take action on clean energy, hosted the March 26-28 event in Washington, D.C., along with the Center for Transportation Environment (CTE), which facilitated and provided the content for the March 28 discussion. The entire day, sponsored by the World Resources Institute, was dedicated to Electrifying School Transportation, which CTE Development Director Lauren Justice said was designed to be a workshop.
