It’s hard to believe May is upon us. It has been an action packed few months, and we just finished a week at the premier alternative energy conference in our industry: ACT Expo.
While last year’s post-pandemic fervor seemingly had show-goers granting EVs a “free pass” in terms of scrutiny, this year’s attendees were looking for cold, hard facts as reality seems to have set in that the road to electrification will be long, winding and full of potholes.
The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, Public Law 117- 58, Section 741 of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (42 U.S.C. 16091) provides $5 billion over five years [Fiscal Year (FY) 22-26] for the replacement of existing school buses with low and zero-emission school buses.
At Roush, our curiosity, ingenuity and determination allow us to push the boundary between possible and impossible. We help partners across nearly every industry take an idea from design, engineering, prototyping and testing to production.
After decades of reliably providing fleets with a clean energy solution, propane is now reducing emissions along the path to zero even further by providing a significantly less expensive and cleaner recharging solution.
Gerald “Stretch” Blackard, owner of Tok Transportation in Alaska, gives his experience with running an electric bus in cold weather and why it may not be best for his operation.
Additionally, Steven Whaley of the Propane Education & Research Council shares how propane is a readily available way to help districts reach their clean school bus goals.
At ROUSH CleanTech, we want to equip customers with the tools and support they need to keep their fleets running as smoothly as possible. Our team of trainers is here to help you achieve your goals.
NTEA’s Work Truck Week 2023 drew 14,885 attendees, beating the record attendance in 2019. The event is fully recovered from the pandemic disruption and then some.
Last week, we wrapped up an action packed three days at the NTEA Work Truck Show and Green Truck Summit in Indianapolis. The industry’s premier commercial work truck event did not disappoint and it was great seeing many of you there!
Propane school buses are an excellent way to reduce emissions and improve air quality in your district—while meeting your energy needs. School bus engines powered by low-carbon propane are 90% cleaner than EPA standards. In fact, propane school buses have a lower average carbon intensity score over the lifetime of the vehicle than even electric buses. And they emit up to 96% less nitrogen oxide than diesel buses, nearly eliminating exposure to toxins that aggravate asthma and other health issues.
