Texas districts are weighing in on the future of buses and the logistics needed to go electric.
"Tesi Solis, transportation director of the Northside district in San Antonio, Texas, has identified one particular bus depot as the best fit for a potential electric bus."
Electric buses are growing more appealing as fuel prices rise, but some districts remain wary of the cost and logistics.
