Abstract: Methods and systems for an electric driveline are provided. In one example, the electric driveline system includes a transmission with a planetary gearset, with a first gearset component rotationally coupled to a first electric machine and a second electric machine, and a first output interface and a second output interface rotationally coupled to a first axle and a second axle, respectively, and a second gearset component in the planetary gearset. The driveline system further includes a first friction clutch configured to selectively brake a third gearset component and a second friction clutch configured to selectively couple the first gearset component to an output shaft.

Abstract: A method and system for operating a transmission that includes two power take off devices is described. In one example, an internal combustion engine and/or an electric machine may supply power to accessory devices via first and second power take off devices. Alternatively, power may be delivered to the transmission via one or both of the first and second power take off devices.
