French company Cixi have produced a drive unit that converts your pedal strokes into power and controls the output of the rear hub motor. Called PERS and now offered on ICE trike models.

Intriguing - legally an EAPC must"...be fitted with pedals by means of which it is capable of being propelled". Is that really the case here? I assume once the battery is dead then the bike won't move, regardless of how hard you pedal.
I mean, I doubt any regulator or police officer would really care - but it would be interesting to find out. Also, I assume you really could get stuck when the battery dies.
