A battery powered semi-truck? That's some serious science fiction shite right there... Don't see that happening anytime soon.
I think trucks are a perfect and obvious vehicle to run on batteries. They need lots of torque (electric motors destroy IC engines in this regard), they almost always have a trailer attached to house more batteries, and they have tons of roof space for solar panels. Further, they are perfect candidates for automation. They drive mainly on highways along particular routes, and they will never fall asleep at the wheel as truckers do.
