Unlike fuels, the environmental costs of an e-Bus's battery are a one-time event. The battery will be used for about 12 years in the bus and then they can be moved to provide fixed storage to support bus charging.
Electric buses can save cities up to $170,000 per unit — here's how to vie for them in your area. Swapping one diesel bus for an electric one reduces human health costs by $150,000 per year. Standard diesel-sucking buses are actually some of the most eco-friendly ways to travel when compared to planes and cars.

Public transportation gets people where they're going while emitting far fewer climate-warming greenhouse gases than private cars. The reason is simple efficiency: while cars usually carry just one or two people at a time, a bus can carry 50 or more, and a train in a large city may carry thousands.
Taken as a whole, urban transit averages 14.1 mph, less than half the speed of driving in most cities (and slower than many cyclists). This doesn't count the time spent getting to and from transit stops, waiting for transit vehicles, or transferring from one to another, all of which make transit even slower.
Expanding Bus Ranges and Declining Battery Prices Are Making Electric Buses Mainstream Electric buses today can travel anywhere between 150 miles on the lower end to 275 – 300 miles on a single charge.
