KSNF/KODE — Hundreds of school districts across the country will soon receive new eBuses thanks to a rebate program from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Out of all the school districts nationwide that applied (nearly 2,400), 401 were chosen to receive rebates totaling nearly $1 billion to replace existing school buses with clean and zero-emission (ZE) models, all in an effort to reduce harmful emissions from older, dirtier buses.
The grants from the EPA’s Clean School Bus Program will allow a number of selected districts to receive a pre-determined number of “clean” school buses that will accelerate the full transition to zero-emission vehicles and produce cleaner air in and around schools and communities.
