I remember reading something that there was a possibility that the 148 could get electrics when it got retendered. Probably was just some stupid rumour.
The reason that those rumours started was that a few years ago RATP stated that Shepherds Bush Garage would become an all electric garage. Whether this is still RATP's plan, who knows?
Currently S operates the following routes 70 72 94 148 C1 with only the 72 and 148 not being electric buses.
The 72 is a problem because of the long term closure of Hammersmith Bridge.
Now that the 148 has been announced to be continuing with LTs, S will not become all electric unless RATP move the 148 to Stamford Brook (to be with their other 2 LT routes 9 & 211) and something is done with the 72?
