Gates Chili Central School District has 15 electric buses with a lift to its fleet the first in the state to do so.

Less than ten years left before all school districts have to be fully electric.

Governor Kathy Hochul recently talked about the possibility of pushing back that 2035 deadline.

News 8 recently asked RG&E whether there's enough capacity to charge electric fleets throughout the area.
