Now Maryland has the same issues.

A Maryland school district that bought hundreds of electric buses is now ordering more than 100 diesel buses due to the electric ones not meeting requirements for use.
Montgomery County is the largest Maryland school district, with more than 1,300 buses that travel an estimated 112,000 miles per day.
“Our primary focus is ensuring safe, timely and reliable transportation for the more than 103,000 students we serve daily,” López said. “Current electric bus technology is not fully capable of meeting all of our transportation demands, particularly for longer routes, field trips and midday services that exceed charging capacities.”
