By 2040, the World LP Gas Association predicts that renewable propane could meet half of the world’s demand for propane. Renewable propane is made from feedstock like plant and vegetable oils, animal fats and used cooking oils. Conventional propane comes from oil and natural gas refining. In conjunction with O’Connor Bus Sales, Bonny Eagle MSAD 6 is the first district east of the Rocky Mountains to use renewable propane. Of the 38 buses we run on a daily basis, 30 of them are powered by propane. The fuel is dispensed by the largest propane fueling station in the state, and fueling is easy, taking just minutes. ~ Sarah Marean, Director of Transportation, Bonny Eagle, School Administrative District 6, Buxton
