Pluggable Hybrid Electric Terminal Tractor Development and Proof of Concept Project
| Sub-Grantees: | Capacity of Texas
|
The proposed project is designed to demonstrate the increased efficiency and reduced emissions of a Pluggable Hybrid Electric Terminal Tractor with motive power provided by an alternating current traction motor coupled directly to planetary axle, as compared to a diesel engine coupled to a transmission coupled to the rear axle. The proposed terminal tractor will be a generator-set dominant, Pluggable Hybrid Electric vehicle (PHEV). The prototype for initial production units will be designed for the heaviest duty applications and to run continuously with no plug-in required.
