I was going to nitpick about efficiency of the generator not being 100 %, but apparently a generator can be 99 % effective.

Yeah, if you start from the break HP of the motor, pretty much all the work can be converted into electricity. If you start from the energy in the fuel, and go all the way to the generator, its like 50%.
