The World Resources Institute’s (WRI) Electric School Bus Initiative reports that a number of fully deployed vehicle-to-grid (V2G) projects involving some 230 electric school buses are now able to supply 8 MWh of power back to the grid at any given time – enough electricity to power about 1,600 typical US homes for up to four hours and significantly shave peak load demand for the utilities they serve.
