Nearly 200,000 of the more than 25 million students who take the bus in the U.S. will catch an electric battery-powered ride this year .
Over 800 school districts have at least one electric bus on the road, and funding is secured for about 12,000 more.
At a cost of around $350,000 per bus, districts say they would not be able to fund new fleets out of their own budgets.
