The author has the right idea. Unfortunately. some serious misunderstandings as well:

Its two electric motors produce a combined output of 300 kilowatts, but only after they are fed the 80 kilowatts of power the battery supplies per hour.

That would be a fine perpetual motion machine of the 1st kind with a generator to recharge the battery. Sadly it is an 80 kWยทh battery pack.
