Opportunity Title:
Clean Bus Planning Awards (CBPA)
Funder/Agency:
Joint Office of Energy and Transportation (Joint Office), National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL)
Description:
The Clean Bus Planning Awards (CBPA) program reduces barriers to zero-emission bus deployment by providing school and transit bus fleets with free technical assistance to develop comprehensive and customized fleet electrification transition plans.
CBPA is managed by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) and funded by the Joint Office of Energy and Transportation (Joint Office). CBPA connects transit and school bus fleets with technical experts to support planning for bus electrification. Fleets also have the option to receive free deployment assistance from NREL at the completion of their plan.
CBPA is not an incentive program, and fleets do not receive direct funding—rather, selected applicants will be allocated technical assistance resources by NREL.
Eligibility:
State and local governmental entities
Private school bus fleets
Nonprofit school transportation associations
Tribes, Tribal organizations
Deadline:
Applications on a rolling basis
