First solar-powered bus in the world

Australia will play host to the first solar-powered electric bus in the world, with Tindo leading the charge in Adelaide, Australia. 100% powered by solar energy thanks to a BP Solar-sourced photovoltaic station, that green ride can ferry up to 42 passengers at once - without forking out a singled-out cent. According to the Adelaide City Council, “The solar electric bus and the recharging system at the

Adelaide Central Bus Station represent a significant investment by the Adelaide City Council into a sustainable future for the City of Adelaide, while providing leadership in sustainable public transport options for cities around Australia.” When will we see such buses roaming the streets of US?
