Default Electric buses at waterloo

There was an article in the Evening Standard last night about the bus garage
near waterloo that has europes largest fleet of battery electric buses.
Apparently they had to install their own "generator". Now knowing the quality
of journalism in the standard I wonder if they meant generator or substation
because if its the former it completely defeats the point of having electric
buses in central london if a generator is just shoving out diesel fumes in
their place (and probably more due to inefficiencies with battery charging).
Anyone know which it is?
