Electric School Buses Put Batteries To Work To Stabilize Grids
Reported byCleanTechnica ↗·Sourced by Goodlede
About 230 deployed electric school buses with vehicle-to-grid (V2G) capability now supply approximately 8 megawatt-hours of power capacity to stabilize electrical grids during peak demand; 31 utilities and 21 states are actively involved in V2G school bus projects, with more electric buses being added to fleets.
Early-stage technology facing barriers: V2G projects have significant upfront costs, lack universal technology standards, and regulatory frameworks remain years away. Battery warranty and degradation concerns must still be resolved.
