INTELLIGENT ENERGY MANAGEMENT ARCHITECTURE
First Claim
1. A vehicle energy control system, comprising:
- an intelligent device that is configured to determine an energy demand of the intelligent device during an operation of a vehicle; and
an energy management system configured to;
communicate with the intelligent device regarding the energy demand to coordinate scheduling of energy distribution during the operation; and
generate an energy distribution schedule to account for the energy demand and at least a second energy demand of another device.

Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for energy control and vehicle energy control. A vehicle energy control system includes an intelligent device that is configured to determine an energy demand of the intelligent device during an operation of a vehicle. The vehicle energy control system also includes an energy management system. The energy management system is configured to communicate with the intelligent device regarding the energy demand to coordinate scheduling of energy distribution during the operation. The energy management system is further configured to generate an energy distribution schedule to account for the energy demand and at least a second energy demand of another device.
