I mean it's not bad to have alternatives though.

My roomie is a trucker, and the idea of an electric truck is laughable, at least in my country, because of how trucking works here. Unless the truck is out of order, being loaded, or being refuelled, it's always on the road; they just swap drivers around like a relay race. Unless a truck came with a swappable battery it wouldn't be feasible to operate like that, they'd have to at least double their arsenal, (at which point we can already start to question how environmentally friendly that is), and that'll increase the overall operating costs, which will ultimately end up on the consumer; everything will get more expensive because that's what they transport. Another problem with pure electric is also that the batteries weigh a shit ton, so the trucks end up being able to transport less because they have to lug the battery around everywhere.

Biogas is an alternative, and as far as I know it works alright; they already use it. They end up not as powerful as diesel trucks though.

Something I wonder if it might be applied is something like Toyota's hybrid system, with regenerative braking etc. I wonder if it scales. My roomie recently had to leave his Golf at the shop for a week, and got it swapped with a Yaris. It cut his fuel consumption by three quarters.
