2. Energy efficiency in transport - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_efficiency_in_transport

   Because of their light weight and small motors, they are extremely energy-efficient with a typical energy efficiency of 1.1 kWh (4.0 MJ) per 100 km [56] (1904 MPGe 810 km/L 0.124 L/100 km), even more efficient than bicycles and walking. However, as they must be recharged frequently, they are often collected overnight with motor vehicles ...

3. Edison Motors - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edison_Motors

   Edison Motors is a Canadian electric truck manufacturing startup based in British Columbia, specializing in plug-in diesel-electric series hybrid technology for semi-truck prime-mover tractor units, full-size solid axle drive trucks, and heavy solid-axle pickups; combining a generator with electric drive motors and batteries.

4. Electric truck - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_truck

   Electric trucks reduce noise and pollution, relative to internal-combustion trucks. Due to the high efficiency and low component-counts of electric power trains, no fuel burning while idle, and silent and efficient acceleration, the costs of owning and operating electric trucks are dramatically lower than their predecessors.

5. Diesel–electric powertrain - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel–electric_powertrain

   Diesel–electric transmission is used on railways by diesel–electric locomotives and diesel–electric multiple units, as electric motors are able to supply full torque from 0 RPM. Diesel–electric systems are also used in marine transport, including submarines, and on some other land vehicles.

6. Premium efficiency - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Premium_efficiency

   Premium efficiency, when used in reference to specific types of Electric Motors (with a rotating shaft), is a class of motor efficiency.. As part of a concerted effort worldwide to reduce energy consumption, CO 2 emissions and the impact of industrial operations on the environment, various regulatory authorities in many countries have introduced, or are planning, legislation to encourage the ...

7. Electric motor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_motor

   An industrial electric motor . An electric motor is a machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy.Most electric motors operate through the interaction between the motor's magnetic field and electric current in a wire winding to generate force in the form of torque applied on the motor's shaft.
