Calgary Transit is looking to add electric buses to their fleet, and they're asking city council to give them more than $20 million in next year's budget to make it happen.
Transit fleet manager Russell Davies said his team has been looking to launch an electric bus pilot project for some time.
Most recently Calgary Transit put out a request for information about electric buses on the market, "as part of its efforts to diversify its fleet and hedge exposure to energy and carbon costs."
