JAC Motors, a Volkswagen-backed Chinese automaker, unveiled the first mass-produced EV with a sodium-ion battery through its new Yiwei brand. Although sodium-ion battery tech has a lower density than lithium-ion, its lower costs, simpler and more abundant supplies and superior cold-weather performance could help accelerate mass EV adoption.

Yeah but this dude has this thing called common sense, try acquiring that first.
Maybe then you can think about the implications of BE buses more than " cables need to be installed therefore Be is better than trolley"
You might think about stuff like extra weight extra purchase cost, decreased capacity, more expensive road maintenance cost, less uptime due to charging, less efficiency due to weight, decreased range in cold or hot when AC is needed that makes everything worse

Why don’t you show me a town that switched from trolleys to BeBs and saved money ?

Literally the first city I checked is switching gas powered buses to trolleys and new bus purchases are going down to 0 and Brno unlike many cities has an excellent public transport system
