摘要： A vehicle controller includes a processing unit which creates a power-supply plan that ensures a first amount of electric power needed for the vehicle to arrive at the destination from the current location along a travel route. The travel route includes a specified section on which wireless power-supply equipment, among a plurality of power-supply equipment, is disposed. Using weather information including the specified section, the processing unit creates the power-supply plan in which a ratio of a second amount of electric power, which is supplied from the at least one wireless power-supply equipment to the vehicle, to the first amount of electric power is less in a first case in which deposition is determined to be present on the specified section than in a second case in which deposition is determined to be not present on the at least one specified section.

摘要： Systems and methods for energy management of vehicles are provided. A controller may control conduction of generated electric current from one or more traction motors of a vehicle to both a first energy assembly and a second energy assembly. The controller may control conduction of the generated current based at least in part on a measured or estimated value for a rate and/or an amount at which the electric current is generated by the traction motors. The controller may direct a first portion of the generated current to the second energy assembly and a second portion of the generated current to the first energy assembly based on the measured or estimated value for the rate and/or the amount at which the generated current is generated by the traction motors.
