It's potentially possible that the energy could be used to power the EV. If the energy is being generated, whether you want it or not, and if you don't "harvest" it, it will simply dissipate as heat. However, I can only imagine that the amount generated is infinitesimal. Peri -- Original

We should not confuse the original post with generator in a wheel folks, I dealt with those people in the early 90s when I worked at GE on electric vehicles.  The article talks about enough power for a Tire Monitoring Pressure System, which requires milliAmps to power the sensor to send signals

David, many years ago we often had people come to our EAA meetings with these suggestions. Engineers in attendance would tell them such things defy the laws of physics. One 'inventor' responded that the laws of physics would be changing, so perhaps that has happened. :) Gail On 7/30/2019 4:44

I am amazed that EVs and hybrids do not inherently install 120v AC outlets in the front and back of every car for VEHICLE-TO-OUTLETS.. (VTO) It would only cost them maybe $99 per car to add a 1 kW or better inverter. Shucks, they could even make a profit and charge for it as an option. But it is
