Electric units just can't do the jobBoulder, Colorado, is as leftist as a community can be in a state that's put its weight behind the climate change campaign. It promotes green ideology throughout its services.
Which is why the district has surprised a lot of people by announcing the pending purchase of a bunch of diesel school buses.
The report explained the district confirmed EVs just can't do the work involved in running more demanding routes into the Colorado Rocky Mountain foothills.
The report said school officials continued, "Propane and electric buses have limitations on mountain routes. Propane can struggle with altitude and extreme cold, while electric buses experience reduced range in hilly areas and require frequent recharging, making them less reliable for these specific routes."
The report said the district now almost 240 vehicles, 113 diesel, 53 gas, 46 propane and six electric.
