The Community Advocates For Clean Energy will host a November 13 webinar on EPA's Clean School Bus Grant Program from Noon to 1:15 p.m.

Join us to learn firsthand accounts of the benefits of transitioning your fleet to electric, about available funding options, and what it takes to electrify a depot from Pennsylvania districts that have electrified their buses.

Electric school buses not only result in reduced greenhouse gas emissions and cleaner air, they also save on maintenance and fuel costs, can provide power back to the grid or buildings during emergencies, and have been linked to improved academic outcomes.

Speakers include--

-- Joshua Dziubek, Energy Program Specialist at PA Department of Environmental Protection

-- Sydney Stern, EPA Region 3 CSB Team Lead and

-- Charlotte Leon, Project Officer at EPA Region 3

-- James Whitesel, Director of Facilities at Unionville Chadds Ford School District

-- Mark “J.J.” Carnes, Business Manager at Steelton-Highspire School District
