Bucket Hybrid Truck combine the benefits of gasoline and electric motors, they are designed to achieve different goals. The engine of these trucks shuts off when the vehicle comes to stop and restarts it when the accelerator is pressed, which reduces wasted energy.
The role of the electric motor is to assist the engine in accelerating, passing, or climbing and that way it allows a smaller, more-efficient engine to be used. Unlike the standard Bucket Truck the operation with Hybrid Bucket Truck is quiet because the motor can run quietly without any background noise and is eco- friendly .
The hybrid motor doesn’t emit gases into the atmosphere and the workers are safer and are not imposed to health risks. Hybrid technologies realize fuel savings approaching to 50 percent, therefore hybrid engines can be set to a ‘work mode’ and with that option are kicking only 75 percent of the stored energy in the batteries powering equipment has been used and than the engine is running long enough to recharge the batteries.
