John Deere: ‘We believe in electric tractors. 100%’
If it was up to the engineers at John Deere, electricity will become the power source of the future. For more efficiency, better traction, lower costs and lower ground pressure. An interview with three experts.

Not exactly the same thing; but....
For heavy equipment there are already models that use a diesel engine to provide electricity that powers the equipment. It’s a bit more money upfront but lower operating costs and greater torque/power. As long as the government idiots don’t insist on “recharging” electric vehicles these things can make sense.
Using electric power rather than pneumatics is a plus.
