1. A cable transportation system comprising: a plurality of rails extending along a transportation path;a draw cable extending along the transportation path;a drive member configured to drive the draw cable;at least one passenger station; andat least one passenger vehicle configured to move along the transportation path and stop at the at least one passenger station, said at least one passenger vehicle including: a plurality of wheels configured to roll along the rails, each wheel including a hub configured to rotate about a pin,a coupling device configured to connect the passenger vehicle to the draw cable, and to be selectively disconnected from the draw cable at the at least one passenger station,at least one electric machine fitted to one of the wheels, said at least one electric machine being driveable by the wheel to generate, independent of any braking of the passenger vehicle, electric power on board the passenger vehicle, said at least one electric machine including a stator and a rotor fitted to the hub,at least one user device powered by the electric power generated by the at least one electric machine,a selector coupled to an accumulator, said selector configured to regulate flow of the generated electric power between the at least one electric machine, the accumulator and the at least one user device, anda control unit configured to set the selector to a dissipating operating mode to regulate the amount of power dissipated and to regulate the braking force of the electric machine. 2. The cable transportation system of claim 1, wherein the accumulator is configured to store the power generated by the at least one electric machine. 3. The cable transportation system of claim 1, wherein for each passenger vehicle, the at least one electric machine is reversible, and configured to supply drive torque to at least one of the wheels. 4. The cable transportation system of claim 1, wherein each passenger vehicle includes a plurality of electric machines, each of said electric machines being fitted to the hub of a corresponding one of the wheels of said passenger vehicle. 5. A passenger vehicle configured to move along a transportation path, the vehicle including: at least one wheel configured to roll along the transportation path, said wheel including a hub configured to rotate about a pin;a coupling device configured to connect the passenger vehicle to a draw cable, said coupling device configured to be selectively disconnected from the draw cable at a passenger station;an electric machine fitted to the wheel and driven by the at least one wheel to generate, independent of any braking of the passenger vehicle, electric power on board the passenger vehicle, said electric machine including a stator and a rotor fitted to the hub; andat least one user device powered by the electric power generated by the electric machine. 6. The passenger vehicle of claim 5, which includes an accumulator configured to store the electric power generated by the electric machine. 7. The passenger vehicle of claim 5, wherein the electric machine is reversible, and configured to supply drive torque to said at least one wheel. 8. The passenger vehicle of claim 5, wherein a selector is associated with an accumulator, said selector configured to regulate flow of the generated electric power between the electric machine, the accumulator, and the at least one user device.
