Posted January 2025

In conjunction with the National Renewable Energy Laboratory and the Joint Office of Energy and Transportation, ITLC hosted the final part of a four-part webinar series on November 20, offering electric school bus (ESB) mechanics and technicians the fundamentals of ESB technology. ITLC Program Director John Schiavone moderated the webinar and highlighted various topics to promote knowledge and understanding of electric bus components, systems, safety, and charging. 

Bluebird’s Electric Vehicle Product Segment Leader Brad Beauchamp kicked off the presentations by providing an overview of ESB charging and technology. InCharge’s Chief Revenue Officer Stephen Kelley covered facility operations and considerations for ESBs, and OWL’s Services Director of eMobility Richie Beebe discussed ESB charging standards, maintenance, and safety. John moderated an engaging Q&A after each presentation.
