Yes Panasonic is going in right direction with their tech a 4680 battery which exceeds the current 2170 cells they use currently that replaced the 18650's in EV's. It packs 9000 mAh per cell and uses raw silicone as new anode for NCA battery (nickel-cobalt-aluminum) which will give about a 16% increase in their range, not much but adds up over time.
In the mean time if the geniuses that is running the buses in your area had any sense of electricity they wouldn't need as much power as they are running right now. Don't know the schedule of all the buses or how many buses the area is running but instead of just sucking on the all electric bus tit they should integrate the other buses that run on natural gas/diesel and rotate them on use as they aren't more than so many on bulk charge. When one or so many comes off bulk charge to absorb have other bus(es) get start charging, try to start charging so many buses at once.
