Nuvve deploys 16 electric school bus charging stations

The Mt. Diablo Unified School District serves 29,000 students across more than 50 school sites.

Nuvve Holding Corp. has deployed 16 Nuvve PowerPort charging stations for Mt. Diablo Unified School District (MDUSD) in the San Francisco Bay Area. The charging infrastructure will help MDUSD operate new electric buses recently acquired through a Carl Moyer Program grant aimed at reducing emissions from heavy-duty vehicles. MDUSD serves 29,000 students across more than 50 school sites. By working with California-based Blue Bird Corporation dealer, A-Z Bus Sales, the district was awarded $3.4 million to update their fleet to electric.

Nuvve provided 16 Level 2 AC charging stations outfitted with its software to help manage the fleet’s charging needs. Nuvve says its Level 2 AC solution charges bus fleets at off-peak times when utility rates are low and allows fleet managers to view vehicle charging and generate monthly reports.
