Despite some recent doom and gloom headlines, EV sales continue to break records and the railway electrification code is beginning to crack.
This new electric train will hit the rails in Australia, complete with a regenerative braking braking system that recharges its own battery on-the-go.
Fortescue’s new zero emission Infinity Train is based on the same principle behind the electric truck hydropower scheme, which might not be so funny after all.
Fleets of electric trucks could be deployed in low impact hydropower systems that deploy existing roads instead of new, habitat-destroying infrastructure.
