What would be the effect on air pollution in your town and other urban areas if 90% of heavy vehicle braking energy was used to relaunch equipment such as refuse collection trucks and municipal transit buses?
A great deal of development work has already been done to get the KERS concept accepted throughout the world. And that's good news for all of us. The Kinetic Power Launch Assist Module now makes KERS applicable for large, heavy vehicles. The High Efficiency High Torque (HEHT) design is more efficient and less complicated than other KERS systems. Remember that Keep-it-Simple axiom? The Kinetic Power Launch Assist Module collects and stores the vehicle’s braking energy as kinetic energy and relaunches the vehicle using that same never-converted kinetic energy. There's no conversion to electric and then to chemical (battery) energy for storage, and we avoid the complexity of compressing a gas over hydraulic fluid and then using that high pressure fluid to turn a hydraulic motor. Kinetic Power LLC introduces an all-mechanical system that offers a simple and highly efficient design with high torque capacity, ideal for use in large trucks, buses and other stop and go applications. Less exhaust emissions, less noise, less maintenance, less employee exposure and certainly a lot less fuel. Learn more ...
