Clark County School District Orders 15 GreenPower School Buses

“Clark County is an innovative and forward-thinking school district that leads the country in the transition to all-electric school buses,” said Michael Perez, GreenPower’s Vice President for School Bus, Contracts and Grants. The order for the 15 GreenPower BEASTs comes a few months after the school district took delivery, and put into service, its first GreenPower Type D BEAST school bus. The 15 GreenPower Type D BEAST all-electric school buses will be purchased using funding from the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Clean School Bus Program awarded to school districts meeting the criteria for the purchase of new electric buses and infrastructure. Under Round 1 of the EPA funding, the Type D GreenPower BEAST all-electric school bus is eligible for $375,000 in grant funding through the program for priority school districts. The total purchase price approved by the Clark County School District Board of Education for the dealer for the purchase of the 15 GreenPower BEAST buses is approaching $7.0 million.
