Utah has utilized $7.5 million from the Clean School Bus Program to transition to electric buses. Schools like Uintah have already saved around $65,000 annually due to lower electricity costs compared to diesel. Despite some implementation challenges, the electric buses have shown promising results and fewer maintenance issues. The program continues with further funding to support additional electric buses in the state.

Morgan, Granite, Park City, Tintic, Uintah and Guadalupe Schools were awarded funds in 2022 and 2023.
