GridLink has partnered with Pellston Public Schools to optimize the charging of their electric school bus fleet. We will help PPS to maximize the benefits of electrification while keeping costs low and operations seamless.
What we are doing:
- Automating charge schedules to ensure buses are ready for routes at the lowest cost
- In June 2025 we will be automating demand response participation for PPS to help turn their fleet into a revenue generating asset
GridLink received a GEM Grant to test and refine our charging optimization algorithm in a real-world environment at DSPL using a varied light-duty fleet and Wallbox chargers.
Key Takeaways:
- Validated key platform features and performance with different vehicles and chargers
- 42%+ reduction in charging costs through optimized scheduling
