The Orange Line, and other private ROW BRT systems are ideal for the installation of quick chargers at station stops or even just at the terminals. Giving the bus a quick charge on each trip can greatly increase the range, to the point where it'll run longer than a comparable diesel or CNG bus. Admittedly it doesn't make sense to do it for one demo bus, but it's a possibility for the future.

Now if they could just lay some rails they'd have some actual transit rather than a child's playtoy.
