The environmental benefits of the trolleybus are considerable and have gained new recognition in the fight to reduce fossil fuel pollution to roadside. Emission comparisons between public transport modes are provided. In recent years the difference in costs between diesel and electric power has swung in favor of the trolleybus, particularly due to the latest energy saving traction motor controls. Guidelines are offered as to the requirements for upgrading existing systems and the implementation of new installations.
