In the example of Mississauga’s MiWay, the buses are hybrid electric and diesel. That is a good solution.
@9XQWQS75mos5MO
I say yes and no because if you have gas and electric power at the same time you can see if one of them works better.
@9DDB3M22yrs2Y
I dont use public transportation.
@934HG9Q3yrs3Y
I think all vehicles should be hybrid
@8ZGVPWT3yrs3Y
I don't really care about this, I just want a bus to get home with. It will be way too costly if all the public transit vehicles are remodelled, rebuilt and the old ones are simply trashed.
@8Z87ZRQ3yrs3Y
No, it'll just increase pressure on electronic grid. It's a zero sum solution.
@8VSKG6T4yrs4Y
Maybe, but aren’t we just kidding ourselves as to how we make the electricity?
Some should run on electrical energy and making all run in electric should be something to work towards
@8VKBY6Y4yrs4Y
Where economically plausible
@8VJV2K2New Democratic4yrs4Y
Yes, but only of the electricity is from a renewable source
@9CTW5VK2yrs2Y
At the moment I feel there needs to be a hybrid system. 60% electric 40% fossil fuels. Until we have come up with a better plan for full electric conversion
@9CMX2HD2yrs2Y
Depends on the source of the power
@99TKWY72yrs2Y
This is a complicated issue that requires more context/evidence
@97NRTW82yrs2Y
Only in communities where it would be sufficient.
@96CXQPL3yrs3Y
Yes but to a certain amount
