Infrastructure additions are part of the integration process when bringing electric buses and trucks into your fleet. The good news is that infrastructure can help you better manage your energy needs overall! We can help you navigate what companies can support your needs and find potential financial assistance and grants that may be available.

When purchasing a bus or truck, one should consider
the total cost it will take to maintain and fuel
vehicle throughout its lifetime. Blue Bird’s
Vision and All American RE Electric buses as well as the Micro Bird Type A Electric bus and Volvo’s VNR Electric truck cut costs on fuel and have fewer moving
parts, thus reducing maintenance costs.
Along with reduced maintenance and fuel costs, many government subsidies and grants are available to help you buy electric buses and trucks – talk to us about grant options, as it varies by location.
With grant writing services available we are electric transportation experts on buses and heavy trucks. Zero emissions to protect the environment! Call us to learn more about electrifying your fleet.
