GM will use the technology to collect low-level waste heat and use it in important ways, allowing their EVs to accelerate faster, charge faster, and go further. An automotive-grade heat pump absorbs and recoups waste heat in the vehicle system. But that’s a bit wasteful, and it’s not what electric cars are all about.
