Electric school buses coming to region
School District No. 5 (Southeast Kootenay) and School District No. 6 (Rocky Mountain) are among 13 school districts that have purchased a total of 18 electric school buses that will begin operating in B.C. communities by the end of this school year.
Altogether, the 18 buses can provide service for about 1,300 K-12 students per day to and from school.
SD5 and SD6 will each be getting one electric school bus.
“By shifting gears from diesel to electric school buses, these K-12 students are benefiting from our government’s work to create healthier and more sustainable learning environments across B.C.,” said Premier John Horgan, MLA for Langford-Juan de Fuca. “Electric school buses produce zero emissions and also support CleanBC’s target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 40% by the year 2030, helping build a cleaner, healthier future for all of us.”
Work has begun on a new $23-million renewable energy hub at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver.
An entire city block is being transformed into an energy district to include the first hydrogen refuelling station for light and heavy-duty vehicles in the province.
B.C.’s Ministry of Energy, Mines and Low Carbon Innovation has contributed $5.6 million toward the project in low-carbon fuel standard credits. Other funding is coming from the Canada Foundation for Innovation, BC Knowledge Development Fund, Natural Resources Canada, Western Economic Diversification Canada and industry partners.
