Blue Bird Corporation, a leading American school bus manufacturer, has achieved a significant milestone by delivering its 2,000th electric school bus to the Clark County School District in Nevada. This achievement highlights the company’s commitment to promoting sustainable transportation solutions and the growing adoption of electric vehicles in the school bus industry.
In the third round of funding for the EPA’s Clean School Bus Program, over $5 billion has been allocated for the purchase of clean propane autogas buses. Fifty-eight districts will receive a total of 269 propane autogas buses to replace aging diesel buses. Propane autogas buses reduce harmful nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions by 96% compared to diesel, have a range of 400 miles, and can operate even if the electric grid is down.
