In August 2023, the Canadian Electric School Bus Alliance (CESBA) released its technical briefing “Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) and Electric School Buses”, prepared by Dunsky Energy + Climate. The briefing allows a better understanding of what V2G technology is, explores its benefits for ESBs, and examines ongoing pilot projects in Canada and the United States.
