I received your e-mail from Doug Neidigh inquiring about the Electric Car Company grant. The Electric Car Company has been awarded a grant in the amount of $50,000 to be used toward the conversion of a shuttle bus with a 275 HP Cummins 1583.9 diesel engine to a shuttle bus with a completely electric motor/drive train. The grant is actually a EPA grant, not a DOE grant, that was awarded to the Missouri Department of Natural Resources and is being administered in southwest Missouri by the Ozarks Center for Sustainable Solutions at Drury University. According to the terms of the grant, ECC will be required to provide at least 25% of the total project costs.
If you need any additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Thanks,
Amy
