The Diesel-Electric Bus

Makes sense. After all, the railroads have been running on Diesel-electric locomotives for as long as most folks can remember. What makes the bus special is that the electric motors are in the wheels. And the generator can of course be powered by used cooking oil, rendered turkey parts, hydrogen, whatever...

This winter, in the city of Apeldoorn, a city bus will be used to prove that the claims about the new invention are true. These are quite bold. E-traction, the company that developed the bus, boasts fuel savings of up to 60 per cent, with emissions down to only a fraction of the soot and carbon dioxide an ordinary bus would blow out of its tailpipe
