The application relates to an apparatus, comprising: a flywheel (120) attached to a crankshaft (112) of an engine (108) such that an axis of rotation of the flywheel (120) is aligned with an axis of rotation of the crankshaft (112); a rotor (122) attached to the flywheel (120) such that an axis of rotation of the rotor (122) is aligned with the axis of rotation of the flywheel (120); and a stator (124) positioned with respect to the rotor (122) such that the rotor (122) and the stator (124) together form an electric generator (126) for generating electrical power (140) when the rotor (122) is rotated by the crankshaft (112). The application also relates to a corresponding method. The aim is to reduce engine emissions.
