Battery Duty & Hybrid Economics

Battery cycling does not inherently save fuel. This screen credits the SFOC improvement between baseline genset production and optimized hybrid charging, after battery round-trip losses.

Battery Duty Register

Each row is a recurring battery-supported operating duty. Sizing uses the largest single-event energy and peak power; annual throughput uses all enabled duties.
