• Abstract:
  This PresidiGo Capital Plan supports the Presidio Trust’s management decisions regarding purchasing, operating, and maintaining its transit fleet, which currently consists of six heavy-duty compressed natural gas (CNG) transit buses and three medium-duty CNG transit buses. The plan includes an analysis of the opportunities and challenges associated with three different fuel types – CNG, Renewable Natural Gas (RNG), and battery-electric buses (BEB) – and their associated fueling/charging infrastructure needs; the considerations needed to transition from CNG to BEB buses; and potential funding opportunities to support the PresidiGo fleet.
