The vehicle mobile microgrid is a vehicle on-board electrical grid dedicated to supplying all supplemental electrical needs for the vehicle utilizing recovered energy from internal combustion engine heat, vehicle motion and auxiliary electrical power generator, chemical and mechanical storage systems and electrical power from incident light energy. Unlike electrical grids that serve wide population areas, the vehicle on-board electrical grid is not meant to serve electrical demand beyond that utilized by the vehicle. This on-board electrical grid is therefore very small by comparison, and the term microgrid is meant to convey this comparative size. The microgrid utilizes a common-mode bidirectional microgrid to efficiently capture, store and distribute electrical power depending on the vehicle's demand for electrical power. |
