Ik zie het nog niet gebeuren dat vrachtwagens en reisbussen op elektriciteit gaan rijden.

En wat dan met zeeschepen, de grootste vervuilers in het verkeer?

Zeeschepen nog niet (alhoewel dieselhybride zou een heel goed idee zijn- > electrisch in de havengebieden).

Diesel-electric hybrid.

There is a third potential use for a diesel auxiliary and that is to charge the batteries, when they suddenly start to wane far from shore in the middle of the night, or at anchor after some days of living aboard. In this case, where this kind of use is to be expected, perhaps on a larger cruising yacht, then a combined diesel-electric solution may be designed from the start. The diesel engine is installed with the prime purpose of charging the battery banks, and the electric motor with that of propulsion. There is some reduction in efficiency if motoring for long distances as the diesel's power is converted first to electricity and then to motion, but there is a balancing saving every time the wind-, sail- and solar-charged batteries are used for manoeuvring and for short journeys without starting the diesel. There is the flexibility of being able to start the diesel as a pure generator whenever required. The main losses are in weight and installation cost, but on the bigger cruising boats that may sit at anchor running large diesels for hours every day, these are not too big an issue, compared to the savings that can be made at other times. An example is the fishing boat Selfa El-Max 1099,[26] with 135 kWh battery and 80kW diesel generator.[27] An LNG-powered supply vessel started operation in 2016 with a 653 kWh/1600 kW battery acting as spinning reserve during dynamic positioning, saving 15-30% fuel.[28]

Schepen op kortere afstanden varen ook electrisch. De Ampere in Noorwegen zal wel voorlopig de grootste E-ferry zijn.
In elk geval heeft Siemens het uitgerekend dat veel E-ferrys best rendabel kunnen zijn, payback-time minder dan 5 naar.

Commercial ferries. Norway's first battery-electric ferry is the Ampere,[14][15][16] with capacity for 120 cars and 12 trucks. As of November 2016, it has operated for 106,000 km. Its battery holds 1 MWh of energy, but the 9 minute charge time is sometimes not enough, and more battery capacity is to be installed. Norway has scheduled several other electric and hybrid ferry projects.[17]

Based on operational data, Siemens concludes in a life cycle analysis that 61 of Norway's 112 diesel ferry routes could be replaced by electric ferries with a payback time of 5 years. The analysis includes auxiliary costs such as chargers, grid, and so on.[18]

In Finland Föri, the historic Turku city ferry across the Aura River to Abo, was converted to all-electric propulsion in April 2017. The vessel was introduced as a wood-burning steam ferry in 1904, converted to diesel operation in 1955 and now provides a continuous daily service from 0615 to late evening for foot and cycle passengers on battery power. Charging takes place at night.[19]
Other projects are considered in Canada, Sweden and Denmark.[20][21][22] India's First Solar Ferry, a 75-passenger boat, that is powered by sun and grid charging with lithium batteries, is under construction and expected to be in operation by July, 2016. Based on the predictions of consumption the payback time is 3 years.[23][24][25]
