Description
Abstract:	The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) tasked the Texas A&M Transportation Institute (TTI) with conducting this literature review and industry scan of electric school buses to proactively assist school districts in their efforts toward researching and/or implementing electric school bus use. The memo begins with an overview of the current fuel sources for school buses, followed by a more thorough discussion of electric school buses. An inventory of current electric school bus deployments and experiences related to these programs is provided, along with a summary of anticipated electric bus programs. Finally, this memo offers suggestions for consideration to assist school and state officials in making decisions regarding electric school buses.
