How Electric ‘Infinity Trains’ Could Run Forever on One Initial Charge
- version_five 4y agoTldr, the trains are hauling ore that is uphill from its destination
- h2odragon 4y agoThey're running shit downhill.
- eutropia 4y agolight train goes up, heavy train goes down and regen breaks back to full battery. gravito-potential energy of raw material converts to electrochemical potential energy in the battery. That’s a cool idea. Makes sense if you can’t find the material in a lower potential energy area already, since you need to send lots of machinery up there to mine the ore.
- Traster 4y agoThey've reinvented the funicular.
