Lion Electric Company has successfully launched five of its electric school buses in New York that features a vehicle-to-grid (V2G) charging technology to be used in reducing emissions and carbon waste. The deployment of the e-School Buses would equip "The Big Apple" with a powerful machine with an impressive range of 155 miles with 72 passengers on board.
Also, there can be options where a vehicle can be charged or discharged when staying at a power grid that is compatible with, giving different signals of energy consumption or production. The vehicle-to-grid's relevance is that it promotes the fight against climate change and promotes renewable energy to cycle from a vehicle back to the grid.
The electric school buses from Lions Energy Company, also known as LionC, have this technology built alongside its battery pack, enabling them to be more environment-friendly than other electric vehicles. Moreover, the LionC buses can give a massive 62 to 155 miles of range (100 to 250 kilometers) on a single full charge.
The vehicle is also capable of loading a total of 72 passengers on-board and for transport around the city. The e-School Buses have a 19.2 kW AC charger on-board. Consolidated Edison (Con Edison) also joins the venture by allowing the LionC buses to transmit energy to and from the grid across the White Plains City.
