The captain said they use 150-200kwh a day, which would be around 2-3 EV batteries' worth (Model S has a 100kwh battery). That's split up between 88 trips, so there's plenty of opportunity to swap batteries.
So they could probably have some kind of battery system but I'm guessing since it's already "tethered" with a line just to cross, stringing an electrical cable was already easy to do and has simpler logistics than managing batteries.
