What is Regen Breaking?

What is Regen Breaking?

Regenerative braking is an energy recovery mechanism that slows the ebike by converting its kinetic energy into a form that can be either used immediately or stored until needed. In this mechanism, the electric motor uses the ebikes momentum to recover energy that would be otherwise lost to the brake discs as heat. This contrasts with conventional braking systems, where the excess kinetic energy is converted to unwanted and wasted heat by friction in the brakes, or with dynamic brakes, where energy is recovered by using electric motors as generators but is immediately dissipated as heat in resistors.
