The developers of an engine that relies on electrical pulses from a battery to produce mechanical potential energy claim that it could replace traditional internal-combustion engines (ICEs).rnThe backers of the concept, from Barreiro, claim that its PulseMoto engine offers 42 per cent efficiency, which they say is double if not three times better than ICEs.rnThe PulseMoto engine relies on electric pulses from a 12V battery. The electrical energy is converted to mechanical potential energy by a series of springs. The energy from the springs is then transferred and stored in a flywheel, which can then be used to do work with devices such as generators, pumps or vehicles.
