LAUNCH: The Canadian Electric School Bus Alliance

We are proud supporters of the newly-launched Canadian Electric School Bus Alliance, led by Équiterre and Green Communities Canada in partnership with various advocates across Canada.

CESBA aims to secure policy commitments at the federal and provincial levels of government that will enable all Canadian school bus fleets to transition from diesel to electric power by 2040.

CESBA will
*Mobilize and support stakeholders.
*Promote the sharing of knowledge and expertise.
*Develop strategies and recommendations.
*Be a public voice in favour of electric school buses.

“All children go to school,” says Jean-Patrick Toussaint, senior climate director at the Trottier Family Foundation in an exclusive interview with Electric Autonomy Canada.  “We’ve been using school buses for decades, and if we can make a difference in this sort of public transportation space that impacts our children and reduces the health impacts … that’s a win.”
