Everett Transit replaced aging diesel buses with 40-foot electric buses funded through an FTA grant. They chose depot charging over on-route charging due to high costs and land ownership issues. The buses are charged overnight at the depot. Implementing the electric bus system required ordering buses from Proterra, installing charging infrastructure with the local utility, training drivers and mechanics, and modifying facilities like installing an in-ground bus lift. Lessons learned included the need for specialized equipment, parts, training, and addressing driver concerns over issues like electromagnetic radiation and radio interference during acceleration. Reliability of early chargers was also an initial issue.
