Abstract
There is provided an electric motor comprising a rotor, a stator and a motor controller. The stator comprises a substantially cylindrical body, a plurality of teeth extending from the substantially cylindrical body in a radial direction, one or more first sets of electrical windings that are wound around said teeth and configured to drive the rotor, and one or more second sets of electrical windings electrically separate from the first set of electrical windings. The second set of electrical windings on the stator are electrically connected to the motor controller such that energy produced by the electric motor during a regenerative mode of operation in use is diverted to the second set of electrical windings on the stator for dissipating the energy produced in the regenerative mode.
