Miller said the PSTA will save about $20,000 a year in diesel fuel costs with each electric bus. The battery range averages 200 miles or about 14 hours of operating time on a single charge. “PSTA is leading the way for our region to meet our green goal.”Įach electric bus is recharged one of three ways: overnight charging, regenerative braking and on-route charging stations. “PSTA is determined to deliver on the promise of a zero-emissions fleet by 2050,” said Miller. The PSTA has agreed to purchase 60 more electric buses. The new electric buses are expected to be on Pinellas County roads by 2024. Last month the PSTA agreed to purchase 60 electric buses over the next five years after unveiling four electric depot bus chargers in June for the six all-electric buses the county has already purchased. Petersburg, Dunedin and now Clearwater are urged to take a PSTA survey to help determine if the public wants the shuttles.Īdditionally, the PSTA is transitioning to energy-efficient, environmentally friendly electric buses.
