Paperback. Why do two electric vehicles with nearly identical specifications deliver noticeably different real-world range? Why can advanced driver-assistance and autonomous features consume more energy than most drivers realize?The answer lies in one of the most important and least understood areas of modern automotive engineering: vehicle energy management.Whether powered by gasoline, electricity, hybrid systems, or hydrogen fuel cells, every vehicle relies on intelligent energy management to maximize efficiency, performance, reliability, and driving range. Behind every mile traveled is a complex balance of battery technology, thermal control, power electronics, software, and predictive control systems working together in real time.Vehicle Energy Management provides a comprehensive, engineering-focused guide to understanding how modern vehicles generate, store, distribute, and optimize energy. Rather than offering a high-level overview, this book explores the complete energy ecosystem from powertrain fundamentals and battery chemistry to intelligent charging strategies, connected vehicle technologies, and fleet-wide optimization.Inside this book, you'll discover how to understand: - How energy flows through internal combustion, hybrid, battery-electric, and hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles and where efficiency is gained or lost- Why battery chemistry influences charging speed, driving range, safety, long-term degradation, and vehicle lifespan- How thermal management systems protect batteries, improve performance, and extend component durability- The hidden energy demands of advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), autonomous driving technologies, sensors, and onboard computing- How regenerative braking works, why its recovery efficiency has practical limits, and how engineers optimize its performance- How power electronics, electric motors, inverters, converters, and energy storage systems operate as an integrated whole- How predictive software, artificial intelligence, and machine learning improve energy efficiency through smarter control strategies- How connected vehicles, smart charging infrastructure, route optimization, and fleet energy management reduce operating costs and improve utilization- How regulations, sustainability goals, lifecycle emissions, and total cost of ownership influence engineering decisions throughout vehicle developmentEach chapter combines clear explanations with practical examples, engineering insights, simplified calculations, and illustrative code to help readers build both theoretical understanding and practical intuition. Instead of presenting isolated concepts, this book connects every major subsystem into a complete picture of how modern vehicles manage energy in the real world.Whether you're an automotive engineer, engineering student, EV enthusiast, fleet manager, researcher, or technology professional, Vehicle Energy Management provides the knowledge needed to understand the systems driving the next generation of transportation.By the end of this book, you'll have a practical understanding of how batteries, power electronics, thermal systems, software, charging infrastructure, and intelligent control strategies work together to maximize vehicle efficiency, performance, and reliability.The future of transportation isn't defined by the battery alone, it's defined by how intelligently every joule of energy is managed. This book will show you exactly how that happens. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.…

Why do two electric vehicles with nearly identical specifications deliver noticeably different real-world range? Why can advanced driver-assistance and autonomous features consume more energy than most drivers realize?
The answer lies in one of the most important and least understood areas of modern automotive engineering: vehicle energy management.
Whether powered by gasoline, electricity, hybrid systems, or hydrogen fuel cells, every vehicle relies on intelligent energy management to maximize efficiency, performance, reliability, and driving range. Behind every mile traveled is a complex balance of battery technology, thermal control, power electronics, software, and predictive control systems working together in real time.
Vehicle Energy Management provides a comprehensive, engineering-focused guide to understanding how modern vehicles generate, store, distribute, and optimize energy. Rather than offering a high-level overview, this book explores the complete energy ecosystem from powertrain fundamentals and battery chemistry to intelligent charging strategies, connected vehicle technologies, and fleet-wide optimization.
Inside this book, you'll discover how to understand:
• How energy flows through internal combustion, hybrid, battery-electric, and hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles and where efficiency is gained or lost
• Why battery chemistry influences charging speed, driving range, safety, long-term degradation, and vehicle lifespan
• How thermal management systems protect batteries, improve performance, and extend component durability
• The hidden energy demands of advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), autonomous driving technologies, sensors, and onboard computing
• How regenerative braking works, why its recovery efficiency has practical limits, and how engineers optimize its performance
• How power electronics, electric motors, inverters, converters, and energy storage systems operate as an integrated whole
• How predictive software, artificial intelligence, and machine learning improve energy efficiency through smarter control strategies
• How connected vehicles, smart charging infrastructure, route optimization, and fleet energy management reduce operating costs and improve utilization
• How regulations, sustainability goals, lifecycle emissions, and total cost of ownership influence engineering decisions throughout vehicle development
Each chapter combines clear explanations with practical examples, engineering insights, simplified calculations, and illustrative code to help readers build both theoretical understanding and practical intuition. Instead of presenting isolated concepts, this book connects every major subsystem into a complete picture of how modern vehicles manage energy in the real world.
Whether you're an automotive engineer, engineering student, EV enthusiast, fleet manager, researcher, or technology professional, Vehicle Energy Management provides the knowledge needed to understand the systems driving the next generation of transportation.
By the end of this book, you'll have a practical understanding of how batteries, power electronics, thermal systems, software, charging infrastructure, and intelligent control strategies work together to maximize vehicle efficiency, performance, and reliability.
The future of transportation isn't defined by the battery alone, it's defined by how intelligently every joule of energy is managed. This book will show you exactly how that happens.
