electrical energy — sold at premium $ / KWH — back to the electric grid during hot afternoons, as it sits plugged - in, in the parking lot of one's employer.
Also, some of the energy used to overcome inertia and accelerate the
vehicle — normally lost when the
vehicle is slowed, to aerodynamic forces and rolling resistance as well to the mechanical brakes (as heat)-- may be recaptured as
electrical energy if regenerative braking is available (see the discussion of
hybrid electric drive trains).
