Siemens Sees a Future for Electric Trucks Powered by Overhead Lines
- rahuldottech 7y agoSorta like trams, heh. But this solves one of the biggest issues with current electric vehicles: the long wait times for batteries to charge. > The overhead line powers the electric motor and charges onboard batteries when the truck is connected to the line. When the truck leaves the overhead line, it can operate on battery power or with its diesel engine.

- rasz 7y agoNo it doesnt, its a corporate giveaway program. Illegal in EU to directly give money to national businesses, so why not run a "eco development effort" and BAM 84 million euros transferred to Siemens.
