Aren’t a portion of the buses in Vancouver running on fuel cells? I think if you’re running large fleets like that which can be refuelled at a single point, it can make logistical sense.
I am just thinking of that show Ice Road Truckers, and I am trying to conceive how lithium batteries work on such long trips in and out of areas with no charging infrastructure? We’re talking about -50 degrees up to Tuktoyaktuk. I see absolutely nothing wrong with the Li solutions where its feasible and other solutions where its not. And maybe it’s still fossil fuels, but at least we’re cutting back by using it for high priority applications and not average Joe running doing errands.
The banging of the ‘Li for everything’ drum just seems fanboyish and unrealistic.
