Lithium Ion's are simply not available on this scale yet...yes, they
are 'better' than lead acid, but they also dangers (like sponteneous
combustion).

Using a serious power gyro or flywheel as energy storage is good applied
technology for a bus. For one good thing, no matters what the bus can't
ever fall over on its side, even if it's flying through the air.

Using whatever battery, super capacitor, compressed air or energy
packing gyro/flywheel(s), along with a good dual-fuel injected engine is
all that it takes.

h2o2 plus a little of damn near whatever else you'd care to burn has
darn little CO2, hardly if any SOx and essentially zero NOx. A
solar/wind derived source of clean birth to grave footprint of such
energy density that's better than 37.5 kw/m2 is also offering us better
than being 100 fold improved over taking that energy via nuclear.

A hybrid dual-fuel injected engine is also every bit as powerful and/or
as compact as such engines tend to get. If you wanted to pack 1000 SHP
under the hood of your full sized Hummer or whatever metro bus, that's
not a problem unless those passengers can't take the 2 Gs worth of
acceleration.

A hybrid dual-fuel combustion engine plus h2o2/aluminum battery as
hybrid is offering even better energy density per kg, as well as per m3.

BTW; h2o2 as utilized along with whatever isn't all that "exotic".
