Does anyone know where the gas will be stored?, as the single deckers have the pods on the top, as seen on Daniels photo: https://www.flickr.com/photos/danielgrahamm/14290155712
Edit:
Also i don't know if the gas has a special name or not as its fuel so i just said "gas"... If you know, please correct me.
I think there's a compartment at the back. It's been a few weeks since I read the original article about it and my memory isn't the greatest.

Ah so it'll be set out like the Omnicities, that's not bad.
Thanks for the info.

It is indeed at the rear but is not set out like the Omnicitys, all the rear is taken by the engine bay hence why there's no rear window.
EdIT to accommodate the tanks, The rear overhang is longer than Diesel variants.
Putting renewable / green energy aside, what woud the energy cost (fuel or gas or a mixture of both) difference be between the Streetdeck and the Scania Enviro 400 Gas Bus?

The gas supply at Sunderland go through the main gas supply from the street i think, not sure if this costs them any extra though.
I would think gas would be cheaper than fuel.
Not sure what the cost difference is between building a gas re-fueling station or a fuel station.
