The school district, together with its partners Highland Electric Fleets and Blue Bird, has added 27 EV school buses and 28 EV chargers to support student transportation. This investment makes the district one of the largest electric school bus fleets operating in ComEd\u2019s northern Illinois service territory, and one of the largest recipients of an EV school bus rebate through ComEd\u2019s Beneficial Electrification (BE) Plan.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cComEd is proud to fund electrification projects like West Aurora School District 129\u2019s and hundreds of others across the region, as our customers and communities take steps toward a lower carbon future,\u201d said <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.comed.com%2Fabout-us%2Fleadership-values%2Fexecutive-leadership%2Fgil-c-quiniones&amp;esheet=54359243&amp;newsitemid=20251117538299&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Gil+Quiniones%2C+President+and+CEO+of+ComEd&amp;index=1&amp;md5=0f8c54923557008ff2496a017abf7ab5\"><b>Gil Quiniones, President and CEO of ComEd<\/b><\/a>. \u201cEV rebates are helping reduce the upfront costs while also bringing us closer to achieving the state\u2019s energy and climate goals.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nSince the launch of ComEd\u2019s EV rebate programs in February of 2024, ComEd has awarded nearly $130 million in <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.comed.com%2Fnews%2Fnews-releases%2F2025-10-02&amp;esheet=54359243&amp;newsitemid=20251117538299&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=EV+rebate+funding&amp;index=2&amp;md5=5331a2669a612f1f5c2549a879ff5120\">EV rebate funding<\/a> in 354 northern Illinois zip codes\u2014helping fund more than 8,700 EV charging ports and over 2,700 fleet electric vehicles. Eighty percent of the rebates paid have gone to low-income customers or organizations located in, or primarily serving, low-income and Equity Investment Eligible Communities (EIECs).<\/p>\n<p>\nThe new electric buses will reduce emissions in the community and provide a quieter, more comfortable experience for students, drivers and the surrounding community. West Aurora is committed to improving operational efficiency and environmental performance across its schools.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cWest Aurora is proud to lead with actions that strengthen our schools and our community,\u201d said <b>Dr. Angie Smith, SD129 Associate Superintendent of Operations<\/b>. \u201cFrom energy efficiency to transportation, these investments reduce emissions, improve air quality and create a healthier environment for students, staff and families across our district.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nFunding for fleet EVs, including school buses, and related infrastructure is an essential step to reducing barriers to EV adoption. ComEd\u2019s EV rebate programs are a requirement of the Climate and Equitable Jobs Act (CEJA), a landmark climate law passed in Illinois aiming to put 1 million EVs on Illinois roads by 2030. Currently, there are over 150,000 EVs registered in Illinois, with nearly 90 percent operating in ComEd\u2019s service territory, up from 19,000 registered EVs in northern Illinois in 2019.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cReaching Illinois\u2019 goals for a cleaner transportation future depends on advancing fleet electrification plans, including school bus fleets, to reduce tailpipe emissions throughout our state,\u201d said <b>Megha Lakhchaura, EV Officer for the state of Illinois<\/b>. \u201cWest Aurora School District 129 is leading by example in their fleet electrification efforts, thanks to initiatives like the ComEd EV rebate and the Clean School Bus programs. The work of programs like this are making transportation electrification more accessible for all northern Illinois businesses and communities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nElectrifying transportation\u2014especially vehicle fleets\u2014can create tangible benefits for all communities and families across northern Illinois, including health benefits in communities which have traditionally borne the brunt of climate change and air pollution. ComEd\u2019s EV related rebates will continue into 2028, designed to support business and municipalities as they transition to electric fleets in Illinois. Projects located in, or primarily serving, low-income areas or EIECs will be eligible for higher rebate amounts and will continue to receive more than 50 percent of ComEd\u2019s EV rebate budget.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cReducing emissions from vehicles, especially heavy-duty vehicles like school buses, is one of the most effective steps we can take to improve air quality and public health in Illinois,\u201d said <b>Brian Urbaszewski, Director of Environmental Health Programs at Respiratory Health Association<\/b>. \u201cComEd\u2019s continued support of transportation electrification funding is allowing businesses, communities and school districts like West Aurora to achieve their electrification goals and help eliminate pollution and create cleaner air for all our communities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cThe Environmental Law &amp; Policy Center celebrates West Aurora School District 129\u2019s launch of its new electric school bus fleet. This transition to zero-emission buses will bring healthier, quieter rides for students, their drivers and the neighborhoods these buses serve,\u201d said <b>Genevieve Kwan, Illinois Government Affairs Representative at the Environmental Law &amp; Policy Center<\/b>. \u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to see this partnership come to life\u2014leveraging federal and ComEd funding, and Highland Fleets\u2019 expertise\u2014to build what may now be the largest electric school bus fleet in northern Illinois. We\u2019re also excited to see these buses support the grid when they\u2019re not performing their critical job of safely transporting student, enabling the district to send power back to the grid and receive compensation for that service.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;These kids and drivers will no longer breathe in tailpipe emissions. These buses will not release tailpipe emissions throughout the community. And the partnership between the school district, Highland Electric Fleets and ComEd ensures these buses will charge at times that are most beneficial to the local grid,\u201d <b>said Tim Farquer, founder and administrative lead of Bus2Grid<\/b>. \u201cIn addition, when fully charged, these new buses hold more than 4 megawatts of stored energy. That&#8217;s the equivalent of over 300 Tesla Powerwalls. That makes us equally excited to see this partnership unlock the potential for these school buses to export energy and reduce constraints on the local grid. This project reflects everything Bus2Grid stands for, and we couldn&#8217;t be more happy for our friends at West Aurora, Highland Electric Fleets and ComEd for working together to pull this off. I can&#8217;t wait to see more and more of these projects deployed around the state.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nTo help customers connect to the benefits of EVs, ComEd offers various resources including, the <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.comed.com%2Fsmart-energy%2Finnovation-technology%2Felectric-vehicles%2Fsavings-benefits-incentives&amp;esheet=54359243&amp;newsitemid=20251117538299&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=ComEd+EV+Toolkit&amp;index=3&amp;md5=8bfcd3674275a140ecf4243b7fb702ac\">ComEd EV Toolkit<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.comed.com%2Fnews%2Fnews-releases%2F2025-05-27&amp;esheet=54359243&amp;newsitemid=20251117538299&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=EV+Ambassador+Program&amp;index=4&amp;md5=9c49d3143d1c349b70f76e9cadb51de6\">EV Ambassador Program<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fmayorscaucus.org%2Finitiatives%2Fenvironment%2Fbecoming-ev-ready%2F&amp;esheet=54359243&amp;newsitemid=20251117538299&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=EV+Readiness+program&amp;index=5&amp;md5=5fa50bfbb9bed3bda037c8062652d66d\">EV Readiness program<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fcomed.chooseev.com%2Fcommercial%2Fabout%2F&amp;esheet=54359243&amp;newsitemid=20251117538299&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=EV+Load+Capacity+Map&amp;index=6&amp;md5=2efc3120003ffec799b6f716d946da35\">EV Load Capacity Map<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.comed.com%2Fways-to-save%2Ffor-your-business%2Fassessments%2Ffleet-electrification-assessment&amp;esheet=54359243&amp;newsitemid=20251117538299&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Fleet+Electrification+Assessments&amp;index=7&amp;md5=161c713dfc964f9e41b547d3952447d8\">Fleet Electrification Assessments<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fcomed2.my.salesforce-sites.com%2FEVSP&amp;esheet=54359243&amp;newsitemid=20251117538299&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=EV+Service+Provider+Network&amp;index=8&amp;md5=607dc07412cd9ed2550e61923f539f94\">EV Service Provider Network<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.comed.com%2Fdoing-business-with-us%2Fdealer-network&amp;esheet=54359243&amp;newsitemid=20251117538299&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=EV+Dealership+Network&amp;index=9&amp;md5=0bf3135596c88a7c08a0cf91e63340cc\">EV Dealership Network<\/a> and <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.comed.com%2Fsmart-energy%2Finnovation-technology%2Felectric-vehicles&amp;esheet=54359243&amp;newsitemid=20251117538299&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=more&amp;index=10&amp;md5=d5d99e9fe44da2f03767fce10b9751e5\">more<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\nComEd is a unit of Chicago-based Exelon Corporation (NASDAQ: EXC), a Fortune 200 company and one of the nation\u2019s largest utility companies, serving more than 10.7 million electricity and natural gas customers.
