On this episode of Mobility Matters, Hosts Arlene Holt and Christopher Gonda speak with Doug O'Malley, State Director for Environment New Jersey, and Melissa Evanego, Bureau Chief for the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP), about the Electric School Bus Grant Program.
We talk about the environmental and health benefits of converting diesel school buses to electric fleets and the NJDEP Electric School Bus Grant Program that will open on February 1, 2024. The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJ DEP) announced the availability of the Electric School Bus Grant Program, which will provide $15 million per year for three years. NJ DEP will host a series of three webinars introducing the program and its components. Interested applicants are encouraged to register and attend these webinars.
