The New York School Bus Incentive Program (NYSBIP) is a voucher incentive program to accelerate the deployment of zero-emission school buses and associated charging infrastructure throughout New York State using funds allocated by the 2022 Clean Water, Clean Air, and Green Jobs Environmental Bond Act (Bond Act). Zero-emission school buses include both electric school buses (also referred to as ESBs) and hydrogen fuel cell school buses.

A total of $300 million is now available through NYSBIP. School Bus Voucher Applications are being accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. To apply and for more information about how fleets, dealers, and manufacturers can participate in SBVIP can be found at the NYSBIP website.
