So this model has nothing to do with buses, children or schools. These items are there to deceive the public into thinking that this scheme is for the common good......for the children.....for education......for safety..... You can eliminate the buses altogether and just install battery packs at locations to be charged at night and discharged during the day. And these locations no not have to be at schools.
And as Astro mentions (thank you Astro) the remaining model relies solely on the local electric company charge structure which could (and would) change to benefit the electric company if there was money to be made. Competition is a good thing and somewhat predictable and would eliminate this model's effectiveness in making money "for the children".
Bottom line here is the government knows nothing about effectively running a business and NEEDS to lie about it in order to sell the idea.
