Demystifying the operation of electric school buses
Free English
The number of electric school buses (ESBs) on the road are increasing each year, but many of the technical barriers and myths continue to delay the transition. If you're currently operating a fleet of ESBs or are considering transitioning your fleet, this webinar is for you!
From driving, repairing, charging to powering, join the Canadian Electric School Bus Alliance (CESBA) on March 20, 2023 between 11:00 am and 12:30 pm ET to learn and share about the technical logistics of operating ESB fleets.
Experts from Propulsion Québec, Highland Fleets and Dunsky Energy+Climate will share some of the key aspects to consider when transitioning to ESBs in our Canadian context.
You will learn about:
- The characteristics of electric buses and charging equipments;
- The ranging and efficiency of ESBs in various driving and weather conditions;
- The impacts of ESBs on power supply and the potential of vehicle-to-grid technology
