Those compactors you see at malls, grocery stores, large office buildings, etc. usually have a 10 hp motor just to compact the trash. Once the store ak worked at had a prolonged power outage ad was running off a large 200+kW rental diesel generator. You could hear genset throttle up to pick up that load when we started the compactor.
Energy Density is the issue, and regardless of all the PR around EVs, they simply do not have the energy density to compete with fossil fuel.
Unless, or until, some fundamental break through in battery technology comes along, they will remain a niche and very expensive product.
The current (no pun intended) technologies are jokes for serious transport energy requirements.
