Walnut Creek, Calif.’s Central Contra Costa Transit Authority received four Gillig buses, powered by BAE Systems’ electric propulsion and accessory systems.
The all-electric buses were secured through funding from a Federal Transit Administration 2012 Clean Fuels grant as well as local matching funds. Together with Gillig, BAE was able to develop and deliver a highly capable and reliable all-electric bus to the community. The Series-EV uses the same components as our high-performance Series-E hybrid-electric system, which powers thousands of buses all around the world.
