The first V2G-capable electric school bus deploys

By Michelle Froese | October 2, 2024

Nuvve Holding, a global technology company focused on advancing transportation electrification through its energy management and aggregation platform, has commissioned its first deployment in New Mexico in partnership with Las Cruces Public Schools.

This project represents an important step in enhancing electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure in the education sector.

Las Cruces Public Schools, the second largest school district in New Mexico, has partnered with Nuvve to deploy five Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G)-capable DC Fast Chargers and seven Nuvve Level II PowerPorts. These installations will support the district’s shift to electric school buses and other EVs.

Key aspects of the partnership:

  • Nuvve’s Role: Serving as the preferred energy manager and flexibility aggregator for Las Cruces Public Schools’ EV infrastructure.
  • Charger Deployment: Installation of 5 DC Fast Chargers and 7 Nuvve Level II powerports, providing robust and efficient charging solutions for the school district’s electric buses and other EVs.
  • Energy Management: Utilizing Nuvve’s GIVe platform, known for its bidirectional energy management capabilities, to transform the school district’s EVs into grid-integrated energy storage resources.
  • Benefits: Optimizing energy usage, reducing costs, and supporting the integration of renewable energy sources such as solar and wind.

“Our partnership with Nuvve reflects our shared commitment to sustainability and innovation,” said Ignacio Ruiz, superintendent of Las Cruces Public Schools. “By transitioning to electric vehicles and leveraging Nuvve’s advanced energy management solutions, we are taking important steps towards reducing environmental impacts. This collaboration aims to not only address climate change but also to create a healthier environment for our students.”
