So he’s probably not in it for the being ‘green’.

    It’s not that he’s not in it for the being green part…
    He realized his battery would run out without being able to reach a charging point in time, so he asked a passing truck driver for some help. He’s also saying in the video that he’s getting recharged 20x faster this way than if he was to simply plug into a regular home outlet. Also he’s saying that for approximately every 2km driven he’s getting 5km of battery life when driving 60km/hour.
