Power generation by means of braking energy recuperation, where the electric motor plays the role of a generator, works particularly effectively. The electric energy channelled into the high-voltage battery either in this way or when plugged into the power grid also feeds the 12-volt on-board power supply.

As she drives her electric vehicle to her mother’s house, Monique’s battery gauge indicates that it’s time to reenergize. Monique closes her EV’s fueling port and heads onto the highway with enough stored energy to drive 640 kilometers (400 miles). An example, she says, is the task of balancing energy flows in the power grid.
