Transit agencies are increasingly adopting battery-electric and hydrogen fuel cell buses to achieve sustainability goals. Both alternatives present operational priorities of workforce training, safety enhancements, and resilience considerations. While the upfront costs are higher compared to traditional diesel or CNG buses, the long-term operational savings and environmental benefits make the investment worthwhile. Workforce development is vital, with a need for gap analysis and training on electrical troubleshooting and system maintenance for high-voltage systems in both types of buses. Safety protocols, especially for high-voltage systems, are crucial for operators and technicians to mitigate fire risks and ensure proper handling of warning signals. Resilience planning varies between battery-electric and hydrogen buses, with microgrids providing enhanced resiliency for the former, while challenges exist in securing hydrogen supply for the latter. Overall, careful evaluation and planning are essential for transit agencies to successfully transition to zero-emission fleets while addressing workforce, safety, and resilience priorities.
