Status of Implementation
The County Department of Airports has purchased 18 zero-emission electric shuttle buses and incorporated them into our existing fleet of compressed natural gas buses. These buses provide passenger transportation to the Airport Rental Car Facility and the Economy Parking Lot. To support these buses, a bus charging facility, with four 60 kilowatt (kW) and eight 120 kW chargers, has been designed and built next to the east solar facility and electrical vault. This facility will provide adequate charging infrastructure to support the full fleet conversion. When buses charge during the day, they can take advantage of renewable energy from the solar facility.
