In 2022 BC Transit had a Proterra ZX5 electric bus for evaluation as part of a state wide scheme. It is seen, numbered 9093, at its special charging bay for the night one evening in Septmeber 2023 with conventional diesel powered NovaBus LFS buses 9423, 9366 and 9378 parked nearby. Rather like the hybrid Alexander Dennis Enviro500H the Proterra appeared to get special treatment, only allowed out on short shifts and probably not used at weekends.

The following day the Proterra is seen scurrying back to the depot.
