Proterra Profiles: Texas A&M University Driving Towards a Greener Future

By integrating Proterra’s all-electric transit buses, Texas A&M University is forging a more sustainable future that will benefit both Aggies today as well as the next generation. The Aggie Spirit fleet, operated by Texas A&M Transportation Services, is a central part of the Texas A&M experience. “The main reason I support the integration of electric buses is for the further learning and research of alternative means of powering vehicles. Soon after integrating the electric buses Tippy and his team discovered that the buses operate at a lower cost than their diesel buses. “The trainers were well-equipped to answer any questions about the electric buses and were very knowledgeable on the subject,” he adds.
