Bump

I put the following in the public transit thread because I couldn't originally remember where we had been talking about electric commercial vehicles

St albert plans to buy electric buses
http://www.stalbertgazette.com/artic...308269975/1039

the vehicle is more expensive but the energy cost is something like a fifth of energy cost of diesel. They are expecting $99,000 savings over life of bus with today's battery technology

maybe commercial electric vehicles are in the near future
