Cedar rapids, linn mar, vintonshellsburg are just some of those districts. Propane is considered a greener alternative to diesel. It emits fewer Greenhouse Gases because it has a lower carbon content compared to diesel. Propane buses cost about 5 thousand dollars more than their diesel counterparts. But districts say they recoup the cost from lower propane prices. Right now, diesel is selling for 2 dollars and 18 cents per gallon. Midwest residential propane is selling for 1 dollar and 46 cents per gallon, according to the Us Energy Information administration.

We are projecting about 3,200 a year of savings per bus, and thats not just in fuel but in reoccurring maintenance costs. Those who sell the buses say theres Something Else thats grabbing the interest of iowa School Districts. Propane buses dont have problems in the bitter cold, like diesel engines. With a diesel bus, number one you are going to hope that you have it plugged in, number two you are going to hope you have your fuel properly blended so you dont have a gelling issue, which will leave that sitting basically along the road, which then involves a tow truck. When its 40 below earlier this week with temperatures hovering around zero, linnmars transportation manager put his new buses to the test. We did have one bus ice up that morning, a diesel bus, had no issues with the propane operation whatsoever most School Districts also plug buses into block heaters to warm them for the cold dayayhead. Linnmar says it doesnt even do that with its propane buses. We have actually opted this year to run our without using the block heaters just to test them and we have had no issues at all. Tv9s Jill Kasparie with that story. Linnmar had to purchase a propane fueling system for 27 thousand dollars.
