MILPITAS, Calif. — Former A-Z Bus Sales executive Jim Reynolds has been appointed president and CEO of green vehicle technology company ADOMANI Inc.
Reynolds, a 13-year veteran of the school, commercial and transit bus industries, retired from his role as CEO of A-Z Bus Sales this summer. He then joined ADOMANI’s board of directors.
ADOMANI converts gas or diesel vehicles to all-electric or plug-in hybrid vehicles. One of the company’s recent conversions is an all-electric Type D school bus at Gilroy (Calif.) Unified School District. The bus has a range of 40 miles per charge, and the district’s facility is supplemented with solar panels to charge the vehicle’s batteries.
According to the company, ADOMANI can supply a bus with enough battery power to travel 100 miles on one charge.
Reynolds said that he was initially reluctant when ADOMANI approached him about working with the company, “but once I saw their technology and realized the impact a company like ADOMANI could make on the transportation industry and the environment, I was on board.”
ADOMANI founder and Chief Technology Officer Edward Monfort pointed to Reynolds’ industry expertise, relationships, and sales and marketing experience.
“After I met him and spent some time with him,” Monfort said, “I told the board we needed him as our CEO and I would be willing to step down as the CEO if Jim would accept the position.”
From EV charging growth to V2G testing and new bus deployments, districts and providers advance alt-fuel goals amid challenges.
