GD Goenka Public School introduces Delhi NCR's 1st electric school bus

Date: 26 Sep 2024

GD Goenka Public School, Vasant Kunj, one of the leading educational institutions in the country, announced Delhi NCR's first electric school bus pilot programme in collaboration with VE Commercial Vehicles.

This pioneering endeavour marks a substantial step towards sustainability and reducing carbon footprints in the education sector, making GD Goenka the first school to undertake such an initiative.

''This transformative initiative reflects our commitment to creating a greener future and establishing new sustainability benchmarks in the education landscape. In the coming times, we will continue to embrace innovative measures for environmental stewardship and fostering change agents of the future,'' said Nipun Goenka, Managing Director of GD Goenka Group.

In an effort to convert its entire school bus fleet to 100 percent electric, the school has partnered with VECV to design a suitable operational and financial model. The pilot program will assess the performance of electric buses, student satisfaction, charging cycles, maintenance requirements, and overall efficiency.

The programme is set to usher in a new era in school transportation in India, as most electric bus fleets to date have been used only in city bus applications.

''We are pleased to partner with GD Goenka Public school, Vasant Kunj to drive sustainable transportation and ensure a greener tomorrow. The institution has been at the forefront in embracing innovative practices, and we are happy to support them with their sustainability goals,' 'said, SS Gill, Chief Commercial Officer, VE Commercial Vehicles.
