    Thank you for that Acorn.

    His bottom line about battery size for a 42.5 Kg GCM Semi is 5.6 ton

    A B Double is 65 ton GCM

    so if we do a simple calc based on his estimate we get

    65/42.5 X 5.6 which is 8.56 Ton battery for a B double.

    I guess this is significantly short of my Car to B Double comparison
    of 11 ton but it nevertheless illustrates that with present technology
    E-Trucks are not capable of replacing Diesels yet not only because of initial
    capital cost but also operational costs as exemplified by the acute
    payload reduction.

    Again Acorn, than you for the link
