Unlike exhaust-driven turbochargers, electric superchargers are driven by an electric motor. When coupled with an energy recovery system, electric superchargers can be used to create a cost-competitive hybrid solution that can deliver fuel savings of up to 20% in the standard European driving cycle, Valeo said.
