4 Benefits of Propane-Powered School Buses
(Family Features) Whether your child’s school bus takes them around the block or across town, every child deserves a safe, clean, healthy ride to the classroom. There are diverse energy options that can achieve this goal, such as propane, which is environmentally friendly and affordable.
Implementing solutions today, like propane-powered buses, can provide a better tomorrow for students. Consider these benefits of propane buses from the Propane Education & Research Council. https://www.youtube.com/embed/uxglNgN3JfM?modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0
Student Health
Propane buses provide a variety of health benefits compared to diesel buses, including:
- Reducing harmful emissions that are known to cause respiratory issues like asthma and bronchitis
- Providing a quieter ride, so students arrive calmer and ready to learn
- Offering a comfortable ride in a cabin that warms up quickly
The Environment
Propane reduces emissions that negatively impact air quality in a scalable, affordable way.
Cost Savings
Propane and electric offer clean transportation, but the cost is not equal. A propane bus costs roughly one-third of an electric bus, meaning school districts can retire aging diesel fleets three times faster.
Reliability
A range of 400 miles means propane buses offer reliable performance at long distances without stopping to refuel.
