Meet the man converting school buses and firetrucks into electric vehicles

from In the Loop (Segments) · host WBEZ Chicago

Buying brand-new electric vehicles isn’t the only way to get more EVs on the road. It turns out that conventional cars and trucks that are already in garages can be converted to run on alternate fuels or power sources. And that’s what Seloc, a Chicago-based company, is trying to do: electrify fleets, improve air quality and provide job training opportunities. In the Loop sits down with the founder to learn his inspiration and how this strategy fits into meeting the city and state’s climate goals. GUESTS: Greg Coles, founder, Seloc Karen Weigert, director of Loyola University Chicago’s Baumhart Center for Social Enterprise and Responsibility
