The eDumper makes a good case for going fully electric with heavy-duty construction, mining, and industrial equipment.

    I cannot avoid to be pedantic on this, it is recharged during half the trip… it just does not require plug-like recharging

      Yeah another clickbait headline. It’s getting recharged all the time, it’s just very lucky to be in a use case where it goes down hills with large loads all the time

        It’s more than a clickbait headline, the first paragraph is just flat out wrong:

        Perhaps best of all, it consumes no energy doing it.

        Obviously it’s consuming energy going uphill. Just because the power source is gravity doesn’t mean it’s not consuming energy.
