Very unlikely - while work has started to get a connection to the nearest substation to Faverdale, no work has commenced within the depot itself yet as I understand. As the Kites are still only under construction and testing with Wrightbus, it will be a while before they start to be shipped over.
More likely the 10 full-length E200MMCs for Darlington will be in service before the Kites - delivery of the AD vehicles is apparently due to commence soon.
