SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING POWER FLOW BETWEEN ELECTRIFIED VEHICLES AND CHARGING TRAILERS DURING IN-FLIGHT ENERGY TRANSFERS
DRIVE
June 15, 2023
Systems and methods are provided for coordinating and controlling power flow during in-flight bidirectional energy transfer events between an electrified vehicle, one or more charging trailers, and optionally, one or more electrified recreational vehicles. The systems and methods may prioritize energy transfers between each connected energy unit based on various parameters, including but not limited to in-transit travel logistics, environmental information, time of day, etc. Charge energy may be transferred to the appropriate power source to meet customer needs with varying levels of priority according to an energy transfer prioritization control strategy that is derived from the various inputs that are considered.
