For a while I was investigating what it would take to put regenerative braking on my trailer - it turns out that it would not be really feasible. I did learn though that apparently many transport companies do this, and even have power assist from the batteries in the trailer to help reduce the load on the tow vehicle when going up difficult inclines.
Pretty cool stuff. Some day your tow limit might have an Asterisk to note that power trailers have additional weight allowances, assuming that the technology becomes more feasible on a small scale.
