Not directly about buses, but this news could affect the future viability of battery electric vehicles, or if the country bites the bullet, even reintroduction of much cleaner trolleybuses in major cities.
Someone has just woken up and smelled the coffee and answered my long time pleas for the United Kingdom to invest heavily in Hydro-electric power generation - surely the most sustainable and long lasting of all renewable energy. No doubt the environmentalists will shout about flooded valleys and the 'toxic' gases into the atmosphere from pouring large amounts of concrete, but it is a one-off and certainly not as damaging and costly as spent nuclear fuel storage of that so called renewable source! Also, no one rises an eyebrow when square mile of concrete are laid at new industrial estate sites such as the one on the East side of Warndon M5 junction on erstwhile prime agricultural land.
