School bus fleets are moving from pilot electrification projects to full-scale EV deployment, and the industry is learning fast where the real pressure points are.
Sasha Pejcic, managing partner for North America, joins us at ACT Expo to break down what school bus electrification actually looks like behind the scenes — from deploying 300 electric buses to solving route chaos, charger issues, and vehicle-to-grid challenges with AI-driven tools.
In this interview:
- Why electrifying school buses is harder than expected
- How AI is changing EV fleet operations
- The challenge utilities still haven’t solved
- Why operators are rethinking diesel in the wake of fuel prices
- What happens when chargers create too much “noise”
- How automation could transform dispatching and charging
