Coupled with other strategies for light duty vehicles, area sources, and the stationary sector, increased use of natural gas in the heavy-duty sector is a fast, cost- effective, and deployable fuel and technology combination. All totaled, engine heat accounts for 26% of the fuel consumed, and exhaust heat accounts for another 24%.

The range extender system uses a turbine to drive a generator which charges the battery pack. Air drawn into the micro turbine is passed through a heat exchanger where heat from the exhaust air is transferred to the cold intake air, and compressed before it is ignited. This in turn, provides electricity to drive the traction motors.
