CALSTART

CALSTART works with bus manufacturers, suppliers, transit operators and school bus fleets to develop next-generation technologies, accelerate sales of near-zero and zero-emission buses, and supports pioneering public policies that are helping to make clean transit a reality across the nation.

We’re working in the Midwest to help deploy fuel-cell buses servicing the NFL Football Hall of Fame, validating the performance battery-electric buses in the nation and increasing federal funding for low and no-emission buses. We are also working with School Districts to assist them with planning, purchasing and demonstrating advanced charging solutions. CALSTART is steering the way to a cleaner, lower-carbon bus future.
