We have a ton of regular electric busses in my city in Denmark
Big powerlines everywhere in narrow city streets? People would get mad.. it looks terrible. And we already have all our power cables below ground.

But cables ugly/s
And the same people who gripe about overhead cables apparently have no trouble staring at a street full of idling, polluting, and noisy cars. It's really impressive.
Seattle used to have these as well. Sadly, the US (outside of a few cities that kept their 1930's infrastructure and updated it) can't find it's ass with both hands when it comes to public transportation.

Also people from Vancouver ( Canada ) where hydro power makes electricity super cheap.
Wait this isn't a thing in the west?
They are being phased out in most places. I think in favor of train and electric buses.
