Aren't the running costs lower though, so that should offset some of the extra cost (I'm not sure how much though obviously). For gas buses I always thought the stumbling block was more the infrastructure costs upfront.
Mind in the short term future it would be nice to see the government really push them by changing the BSOG payment so that any new Diesel bus is punished in comparison to zero emission buses.
