Caro Wild told an environmental scrutiny meeting that the council would have liked to have made the vehicles electric, according to the"We have got the biggest electric RCV fleet in Wales but… because of the grid capacity at Lamby Way, the availability of the vehicles, the price of them, it is just not possible to do that number at this stage," he said.
