Fast charge in maybe two hours? And you have the bus for about 16 hours? Each charger can do eight buses (maybe). So maybe ten chargers? And some bus jockeys. Or a big investment in a smart charging field.
Good point. Purchasing 80 chargers sounds like it could be a pretty big budgetary consideration, and if they didn't have one for every bus, or at least, one for every bus that runs daily, then there's a pretty big logistics consideration.
