They also make the point about the sheer number of electric buses that will be needed. Hence the value of converting vehicles which were designed to be long-lived anyway.
It reflects the points made about the Australian HGV conversions by Janus: there are just too many trucks to rely on end-of-life replacements.

Absolutely right - it's also that thing of if the bus chassis already exists and is in good condition, then it's better to keep it on the road from a total carbon point of view as well as local emissions air quality.
