    Oct 28 2024

    In August, the Oakland Unified School District in California became the first major school district in the United States to fully electrify its school bus fleet.

The fleet was made possible by Zum (www.ridezum.com), the leading provider of turnkey electric school bus solutions, and Pacific Gas and Electric, the electric utility which provides 2.7 MW to the site. On this episode, Ritu Narayan, Founder and CEO of Zum, and Sarah Swickard, Vehicle Grid Integration Manager at PG&E, talk about the Oakland fleet as well as opportunities and challenges related to electric school buses.
