Anaheim’s plan to operate California’s first all-electric bus fleet are being fueled with a $5 million grant from the California Energy Commission.

The grant—provided by the California Energy Commission—will be used by the Anaheim Transportation Network (ATN) to acquire charging stations, batteries, and other solar infrastructure. It will also finance the purchase of a large solar panel canopy that will provide 25 percent of the total excepted energy consumption.
