Description
The Grossmont Union High School District (GUHSD) celebrated their new state-of-the-art transportation services center Wednesday during a dedication ceremony and ribbon-cutting.
The goal was to spotlight the district's planned transition to an all-electric bus fleet. The energy infrastructure to support the all-electric fleet was designed in partnership with ENGIE, a global energy and services group with expertise in energy infrastructure. With the recent delivery of 17 electric buses, phase one of GUHSD's plan is already underway.
District leaders say the cutting-edge technology will set a new nationwide bar for innovation in school transportation.
"I'm proud of the fact that we're going to lead the way for the infrastructure, the chargers, the software -- smart technology at the right time. We don't charge buses between 4 p.m. and 9 p.m. and we get the job done," said CJ Rasure, Director of Transportation.
