Electric Compact Equipment?

[DavidLevin]

Does anyone know of electric skids or other compact equipment? If so, do you have any ideas where they may be used, Mines? Tunnels? Other indoor environment? Have you encountered night work in city centers where there are noise/pollution restrictions that would require use of electric vehicles?

The thinking is that with the new Obama administration stress on Green, there may be some potential there...
