The batteries are several tonnes heavier than an engine+fuel tank.

Didn't know that. Might explain why the MK battery buses allow fewer
standees (only 7) than the otherwise identical diesel versions (which
allow a crush-load - the number permitted is more than you would
physically fit on).

I wonder how, given the UK's generation profile, this affects their
carbon footprint?
