    Wow…

    LNG conversions do make sense in a very limited set of conversions… e.g. garbage trucks powered locally by methane from landfill gas and organic waste. But the math is increasingly clear that electric and battery electric is the way to go for public passenger transport, unlike waste transport.

    Lithium batteries stuff does come a lot from China, but it doesn’t have to, since we have sources of lithium in Canada. On the energy side why do we have to rely on LNG transported from far away when we (in the case of Southern Ontario) have a robust, clean grid and on top of that an agency can expand into solar/wind to further increase resilience.
