THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
Ameren Missouri and EM-ACT are offering a $36 million program to fund electric school buses, charging infrastructure, and installation for eligible districts. Schools choose their own bus vendor, charger provider, and electrical contractor, but must submit signed contracts to receive funding and operate projects for at least five years. This is a strong funding-backed trigger for transportation, charger, and electrical firms to help districts design projects, select equipment, and prepare contracts that meet program requirements.
Funds cannot be used for existing projects; diesel buses from 2010 or older must be scrapped by the district, newer buses can be sold.
