It aims to present the growing interest and investment in the sector along with key aspects of the current technology. </span></p><p><span>A scan of the market explores the growing demand for these school buses and how manufacturers are positioning themselves to meet that demand along with broader social and environmental considerations. The catalog presents electric school bus models available today with detailed vehicle specifications allowing readers to compare various models and weigh important considerations.</span></p><h3><span>Highlights</span></h3><ul><li><span><strong>Momentum for electric school buses (ESBs) continues to grow. </strong>As of June 2024, 1,514 school districts (or private operators) had committed to procuring 12,167 ESBs in 49 states. States and municipalities are setting electrification goals while manufacturers scale production. </span></li><li><span><strong>Diesel exhaust pollution presents real health and development dangers to students, drivers, and communities. </strong>ESBs have zero tailpipe emissions of harmful air pollutants and the lowest greenhouse gas emissions of any school bus type, even when accounting for emissions from the generation of electric power. </span></li><li><span><strong>Although diesel-burning school buses have a lower upfront cost, record funding is available for ESBs</strong>, and they have the potential for lower operations and maintenance costs. With funding, an electric school bus can have a total cost of ownership hundreds of thousands of dollars lower than a diesel-burning school bus.</span></li><li><span><strong>As of June 2024, 26 ESB models were available for Types A, C, and D buses: 20 newly manufactured models and 6 repowered models. </strong>Each generation of electric school buses becomes more advanced. The nameplate range of current models is between 100 and 300 miles, enough to reliably cover most routes in operation. </span></li><li><span><strong>Beyond the bus, charging infrastructure and software to manage the charge are necessary components of successful electric school bus adoption and operations. </strong>Close and early collaboration with electric utilities and charge management software companies for support is necessary.</span></li></ul></div> </div> </div> </div> <div><a name="section-452"></a> <div class="my-lg ts-grid-6-center"> <div class="highlight bg-green-200 py-md px-md rounded-lg text-white"> <div class="h3"> <h2 class="text-2xl font-serif font-bold">Electric school buses offer access to record funding, have the potential for lower operations and maintenance costs compared to diesel-burning school buses, and produce zero tailpipe emissions.</h2> </div> <div class="body-sm my-sm"></div> <a href="https://electricschoolbusinitiative.org/sites/default/files/2024-08/Electric%20School%20Bus%20U.S.%20Market%20Study%20%28August%202024%29.pdf" class="btn-solid-green-dk inline-block mr-xs mb-xs">Learn more <svg viewBox="0 0 18 18" fill="none" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"> <path d="M7.27918 4.5L6.22168 5.5575L9.65668 9L6.22168 12.4425L7.27918 13.5L11.7792 9L7.27918 4.5Z" fill="#191919"/> </svg> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div><a name="section-22"></a> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--rich-text paragraph--view-mode--full-content"> <div class="wysiwyg-container"> <div><h3><span>Context</span></h3><p><span>Momentum around electric school buses (ESBs) continues to grow in the United States as school districts across the country transition to a cleaner and healthier technology, bolstered by multiple federal funding programs, including the Environmental Protection Agency’s $5 billion Clean School Bus Program. The ESB transition requires a coordinated effort among numerous entities, including school district leadership and staff, school bus and charging infrastructure manufacturers and contractors, utilities, policymakers, regulators, local advocacy organizations, and community members.</span></p><p><span>In the “Status of the Electric School Bus Market” section, we explore the growing demand and funding opportunities for these school buses and how manufacturers are positioning themselves to meet that demand. The second section, “Summary of available technology,” breaks down the key components of the vehicles, charging infrastructure, and charge management software, and outlines battery chemistry, safety, and circularity. This section also highlights key trends in current ESB vehicle models, the industry and repowers (fossil fuel school buses that have been converted to electric). </span></p><p><span>An accompanying publication— </span><a href="https://electricschoolbusinitiative.org/sites/default/files/2024-06/Electric%20School%20Bus%20U.S.%20Buyer%27s%20Guide%202024%20-%20WRI%27s%20Electric%20School%20Bus%20Initiative%20%28June%202024%29.xlsx"><span>Electric School Bus U.S. Buyer’s Guide</span></a><em><span> </span></em><span>catalogs the 26 ESB models available as of June 2024, including vehicle specifications.
