States across the country are taking steps to bring the health, climate and economic benefits of electric school buses to their communities. What have we learned from their experiences? What are the different policy options or tools? What best practices should other states consider?

The Alliance for Electric School Buses and WRI’s Electric School Bus Initiative will be launching a state policy playbook, with recommendations for policymakers, regulators, advocates and other parties interested in advancing equitable electric school bus adoption. This webinar will feature leaders from state agencies, advocacy groups, school districts, and others to shed light on policy best practices to deploy at the state level.

Join us as we discuss the inner workings behind successful electric school bus adoption and the myriad considerations that go into policy design.
