The battery packs handling it isn't a concern. You see, there will be a giant Tesla brand Tesla Coil to handle the discharge of excess energy preferably generating music.

Mad Max prop?
Although the generator might not overheat, the battery getting hot or filling up is a real concern. Although I suppose with the rumored 1MW charging rate it’d take quite a bit to overwhelm that battery!
Letting off the accelerator applies some regen, brake application activates progressively more aggressive regen and then the final travel on the brake pedal applying friction braking
Having three EVs with three different approaches to regenerative braking, I prefer Tesla by a wide margin.I'd like that on the Car, let alone a Truck In particular balanced so that lift off accelerator is always same effect (i.e. use friction brakes if necessary), even if battery cold or 100% SoC. And if Brake Pedal could have initial travel providing even-more-regen, as you describe, I'd prefer that to using friction brakes
Having read through this thread I have to wonder, are there any plans to optionally have drive motors in the trailers that are being pulled? Seems like it would not only up what could be moved but importantly it would also provide regen braking on the trailers helping keep them in line.

The Bosch system posted just above doesn’t seem to be.They certainly would be tied to a tesla only tractor though if you did that.
