This $18,911,861.00 Project Grant award from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under the Clean School Bus Program (CFDA 66.045) will allow Van-Con, Inc. to replace existing diesel school buses with electric school buses and install DC fast chargers and Level 2 chargers in several school districts in New Jersey.

The key deliverables include the replacement of diesel school buses with battery electric school buses, the installation of AC Level 2 and DC fast charging infrastructure, and the provision of training programs for bus drivers and maintenance staff. These efforts are expected to result in significant annual reductions in emissions of carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides, particulate matter, and volatile organic compounds, while also benefiting the local communities through improved air quality, economic, and social outcomes. The award period runs from November 1, 2024 to October 31, 2026.
