Summary

The bill sets a timeline for Connecticut school districts to replace their fleets so that by 2030 buses serving environmental‑justice areas are zero‑emission, and by 2040 all school buses in the state are zero‑emission (or alternative‑fuel or hybrid until then). It creates a grant program, administered by the Commissioner of Energy and Environmental Protection, to match local funding and prioritize projects in environmental‑justice communities. The measure also establishes a dedicated account to cover program costs.
