Description

ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS TO OPTIMIZE ELECTRICAL VEHICLES AND STATIONARY INVERTER-BASED ELECTRICAL SYSTEMSTECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of energy systems. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to a system and method for optimizing power usage in electrical vehicles and stationary inverter-based electrical systems to enhance continuous electrical AC output with lesser or inconsistent DC input.BACKGROUND

[0002] Background description includes information that may be useful in understanding the present disclosure. It is not an admission that any of the information provided herein is prior art or relevant to the presently claimed disclosure, or that any publication specifically or implicitly referenced is prior art.

[0003] Existing electric vehicles (EVs) and solar power systems face significant limitations primarily due to their reliance on large battery packs. These batteries are costly to produce, increasing the upfront cost of EVs. Over time, battery degradation reduces performance, leading to frequent replacements and higher maintenance expenses. The limited energy storage capacity restricts the range of EVs, making them less viable for long-distance travel. In solar and Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS) systems, battery dependency means power availability is reduced during prolonged cloudy periods or outages. Additionally, scaling up such systems to meet higher energy demands requires the addition of more batteries, further inflating costs and physical space requirements. Battery disposal also raises environmental concerns due to toxic chemicals and heavy metals. Furthermore, the existing systems are inefficient in utilizing all available power, often leading to energy losses. The lack of alternative or supplemental charging methods results in downtime and reliability issues. Overall, the dependency on batteries in current designs poses financial, operational, and environmental challenges.

[0004] Electric vehicle (EV) battery packs are typically sized according to the motor rating and the vehicle’s distance requirements; for instance, a 50-seater electric bus may require a battery pack of around 240 kWh to achieve a range of approximately 150 kilometres. However, such high-capacity battery configurations come with several drawbacks, including significantly increased initial investment due to the cost of the battery itself. Additionally, the need for frequent and high-capacity charging results in elevated operational expenses. Over time, repeated charge-discharge cycles reduce battery health, leading to a shorter overall lifespan.This degradation eventually necessitates costly battery replacements, further compounding the total cost of ownership for electric buses and similar large EVs.

[0005] To address these limitations, the present invention provides a novel system and method that overcomes the shortcomings of the prior art.OBJECTS OF THE PRESENT DISCLOSURE

[0028] The following is a detailed description of embodiments of the disclosure depicted in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments are in such detail as to communicate the disclosure. However, the amount of detail offered is not intended to limit the anticipated variations of embodiments. On the contrary, the intention is to cover all modifications, equivalents, and alternatives falling within the spirit, and scope of the present disclosure as defined by the appended claims.

[0029] The various embodiments throughout the disclosure will be explained in more detail with reference to FIGs. 1-6.

[0030] FIG.s 1A-1B illustrate exemplary block diagram representations of the proposed system for optimizing power usage and extending operational range of electrical systems, in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0031] Illustrated in FIGs. 1A-1B is a block diagram representation of the system 100 for optimizing power usage and extending operational range of electrical systems.

[0032] Illustrated in Figures lA and IB are two embodiments 100A, 100B of the system 100 configured to work with DC inputs from either a battery pack 102 (or a solar plate 112),enabling efficient motor-generator operations and energy feedback. In Figure 1A, the battery pack 102 supplies DC power to an inverter 104, which converts the DC power input into AC to drive a motor 106. The motor 106 is mechanically coupled to a generator 108, which is sized at 3 to 4 times the rating of the motor 106 and the inverter 104, to produce a substantially higher output. The AC output from generator 108 is then passed through a rectifier 110 to convert the AC back into DC, enabling partial energy regeneration and then to a load 118. Approximately one-third of the electricity produced by the generator 108 is fed back into the system 100, either to support the inverter 104 again or to recharge the battery pack 102, enhancing operational efficiency. This regenerative loop supports cyclic operation and prolongs energy utilization.

[0033] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, a solar plate 112 supplies DC energy to the inverter 110, which in turn powers the motor 106 to drive the generator 108 in a similar fashion. The generated AC power is also converted through the rectifier 110 and redirected toward the load 118. The excess energy is not only looped back to the inverter 104 but also transferred to one or more Light Emitting Diode (LED) plates 114, which simulate solar radiation to maintain continuous excitation of the solar plate 112. The one or more LED plates 114 is integrated within an Optic Fibre Cable (OFC) tunnel 116 that optimizes the light intensity and spectrum for maximum solar panel efficiency. The OFC tunnel 116 ensures that the solar plate 112 receives controlled and consistent illumination, essentially creating a hybrid regeneration model. The LED plates 114, powered by a fraction of the energy generated by the generator 108, help maintain the input to the system 100, allowing for nearly continuous operation even during low sunlight conditions. This closed-loop concept enhances system autonomy. The OFC tunnel 116, acting as the optical feedback control environment, aids in simulating ideal solar exposure conditions.

[0034] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, 100A-100B depict how DC inputs are essential to start the chain reaction of energy conversion. The inverter 110 is critical in converting DC to AC, enabling the motor 106 to function effectively. With the generator 108 having a higher capacity, the output becomes sufficient for both direct load and feedback processes. The rectifier 110 plays a crucial role in re-routing generated AC back into DC pathways. The battery pack 102 in Figure 1A acts as a standalone DC source, while the solar plate 112 in Figure IB depends on artificial illumination through the LED plates 114. The representations 100A-100B highlight energy sustainability and internal loop recycling. The strategic capacity ratio between the motor 106 and the generator 108 ensures surplus generation for feedback. Integrating the LED plates 114 and the OFC tunnel 116 makes the solar-based model semi -autonomous. This integration enhances overall system resilience. Suchregenerative systems can be applied in off-grid or mobile energy scenarios. The rectifier 110 thus becomes the pivotal component for effective DC recapture. The use of the battery pack 102 ensures mobility and initial power availability. Meanwhile, the solar plate 112 makes the system 100 green and renewable. The combination of the inverter 104 and the motor 106 drives the initial mechanical motion.

[0035] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the system 100 emphasizes upon the importance of feedback energy recovery. The reusage of one-third of the output of the generator 108 boosts efficiency. The system 100 reduces dependence on external charging infrastructure. Further, the system 100 supports modular expansion using the additional solar plates 112 or the battery pack 102. This dual approach merges renewable and stored energy systems. Consequently, both configurations offer robust, scalable, and regenerative power solutions.

[0036] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the generator 108 plays a crucial role in converting mechanical energy into electrical energy within the system. The generator 108 is driven by the motor 106, which receives AC power from the inverter 104. The inverter 104 itself is powered by DC input from either the battery pack 102 or the solar plate 112, depending on the configuration. The generator 108 is designed to have a capacity 3 to 4 times greater than the motor 106 and the inverter 104 to ensure surplus energy output. This surplus is crucial for maintaining energy regeneration and supporting other system components. The AC output from the generator 108 is directed to the rectifier 110 to be converted back into DC power. A portion of this rectified energy can recharge the battery pack 102, enhancing the longevity of the system 100. Alternatively, the generator 108 can feed back into the inverter 104 to continue powering the motor 106. In the solar configuration, another portion of the generated energy is routed to the LED plates 114. The OFC tunnel 116 ensures consistent and focused illumination. This illumination is then received by the solar plate 112 to produce additional DC power. The generator 108, therefore, indirectly sustains the energy loop of the system 100. The generator 108 acts as the primary point of energy multiplication and regeneration. Without the generator 108, the system 100 would be unable to sustain itself after the initial input is consumed. The energy generated by the generator 108 supports both active operation and feedback pathways. The rectifier 110 ensures that this energy can be reused effectively. By powering the LED plates 114, the generator 108 indirectly keeps the solar plate 112 active even in the absence of sunlight. This enables 24 / 7 operation in controlled environments. The continuous operation of the motor 106 and the generator 108 pair is vital for overall system efficiency. Thus, the generator 108 is the heart of the regenerative loop, converting mechanical effort into high- output electrical energy that drives the entire system 100 forward.

[0037] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the rectifier 110 plays a pivotal role in converting alternating current (AC) generated by the generator 108 into direct current (DC) that can be reused within the system. Once the motor 106, powered by the inverter 104, drives the generator 108, AC power is produced. However, since the primary energy sources — the battery pack 102 and the solar plate 112 — operate on DC, the rectifier 110 becomes essential for compatibility. The rectifier 110 takes the AC output from the generator 108 and converts the AC output into a DC form suitable for storage and redistribution. A portion of this rectified DC power is redirected back to the battery pack 102 to recharge for extended autonomous operation. Another portion is supplied to the inverter 104 to sustain the motor 106, maintaining the cycle of mechanical-to-electrical conversion. In the solar-powered model, the rectifier 110 also directs some of the converted DC power to the LED plates 114. The LED plates 114 and the OFC tunnel 116 to provide optimal simulated sunlight. The controlled lighting from the LED plates 114 enhances the efficiency of the solar plate 112. This process enables the solar plate 112 to continue supplying DC power even when natural sunlight is unavailable. Thus, the rectifier 110 helps close the energy feedback loop. Without it, AC power from the generator 108 would be unusable by DC-driven components. Its presence ensures energy versatility and reusability within the system. The rectifier 110 supports dynamic routing of power to various system units. It helps maintain consistent operation without external input. Its efficiency directly affects the system's energy retention. The battery pack 102 relies on it for effective recharging. The inverter 104 benefits by receiving a stabilized DC input. The rectifier 110 also enables indirect operation of the motor 106 from generator-produced electricity. Therefore, the rectifier 110 ensures seamless integration between AC and DC components. In short, the rectifier 110 is the backbone of the regenerative energy pathway.

[0038] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the motor 106 serves as the crucial mechanical driver within the energy conversion system, transforming electrical energy into rotational motion. Powered by the inverter 104, which receives DC input from either the battery pack 102 or the solar plate 112, the motor 106 initiates the mechanical process required to spin the generator 108. This mechanical motion allows the generator 108 to produce a higher- capacity AC output. The motor 106 acts as the bridge between electrical input and mechanical energy transfer. Its performance is directly dependent on the efficiency of the inverter 104, which modulates and supplies the necessary AC waveform. The electricity that powers the motor 106 can come from renewable sources like the solar plate 112, or stored energy in the battery pack 102. The motor 106 is intentionally rated at one-third the capacity of the generator 108 to ensure energy gain. When functioning optimally, the motor 106 allows the system 100to generate more energy than it consumes. This surplus AC power is converted to DC by the rectifier 110 for reuse. Some of the rectified energy feeds back into the inverter 104 to keep the motor 106 running continuously. This creates a semi-closed-loop energy cycle. Further, the motor 106 indirectly supports energy redirection to the LED plates 114. The LED plates 114, provide artificial illumination to the solar plate 112. As a result, even without sunlight, the system 100 can keep the solar plate 112 active and producing power. This makes the motor 106 integral to both energy production and sustainability. The motor 106 acts as the mechanical initiator for the regenerative loop. The efficiency of the system 100 hinges on the reliable function of the motor 106. The motor 106 also enables energy multiplication via the high- capacity generator 108. In essence, the motor 106 translates electric energy into motion, setting the foundation for further energy conversion and recycling. Without the motor 106, the generator 108 would remain inactive, halting the entire process.

[0039] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the inverter 104 plays a central role in initiating and maintaining the energy conversion cycle by transforming direct current (DC) from either the battery pack 102 or the solar plate 112 into alternating current (AC) required to power the motor 106. This AC output from the inverter 104 drives the motor 106, which in turn mechanically spins the generator 108 to produce higher-capacity AC electricity. The inverter 104 ensures that the input DC voltage is modulated into a form suitable for efficient motor operation, including frequency and phase adjustments. When the battery pack 102 is the source, the inverter 104 manages voltage levels to prevent overdriving or underpowering the motor 106. Similarly, when the solar plate 112 is active, the inverter 104 stabilizes fluctuating solargenerated DC to maintain consistent motor 106 performance. A portion of the AC power generated by the generator 108 is then converted back into DC by the rectifier 110. This rectified energy can be routed back to the inverter 104 to continue powering the motor 106, creating a partially self-sustaining energy loop. The inverter 104 thus enables dynamic energy redirection, adapting to inputs from both renewable and stored sources. In the solar-powered setup, excess energy from the generator 108 may also power the LED plates 114. The LED plates 114 simulate sunlight for the solar plate 112, allowing for extended power generation even in low-light conditions. The inverter 104 balances these processes, ensuring optimal energy flow to all components. The inverter 104 prevents system overload by regulating the input-output conversion rate. Without the inverter 104, the DC power from the battery pack 102 or the solar plate 112 would be unusable by the AC-dependent motor 106. The inverter 104 is the keystone in enabling the transition between energy forms. The inverter 104 also plays a critical role in energy recovery through feedback from the rectifier 110. The inverter 104handles variations in load while ensuring stable motor torque. Further, the inverter 104 accommodates bidirectional power flow in regenerative scenarios. The seamless integration of stored and renewable energy sources hinges on the inverter 104. The inverter 104 enables intelligent routing and transformation of energy, making it a vital component of the overall system architecture.

[0040] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the battery pack 102 serves as the primary energy reservoir in the system, supplying direct current (DC) power when solar input is unavailable or insufficient. The battery pack 102 provides stable and instant power to the inverter 104, which converts the DC into alternating current (AC) required by the motor 106. This enables the motor 106 to mechanically rotate the generator 108, initiating the energy generation process. The battery pack 102 is essential for kickstarting the system, especially during low-light or night-time conditions. When the motor 106 drives the generator 108, the resulting AC output is processed by the rectifier 110, which converts the AC back into DC. A portion of this DC energy is redirected to recharge the battery pack 102, maintaining its charge and prolonging autonomous operation. This energy feedback loop ensures efficient power utilization and reduces dependency on external sources. Further, in cases where the solar plate 112 is active, the solar plate 112 can contribute to charging the battery pack 102 via direct DC input. This makes the battery pack 102 a versatile and dual -input storage unit. When solar energy is abundant, excess power can be stored for later use. The LED plates 114, powered by the system 100, simulate sunlight for the solar plate 112, ensuring power generation continuity. The stored energy in the battery pack 102 supports continuous lighting of the LED plates 114 during low-sunlight hours. As a result, the battery pack 102 indirectly enables solar simulation and consistent DC output. The performance of the inverter 104 and the motor 106 relies heavily on the stability of the battery pack 102. The battery pack 102 ensures that the motor receives consistent voltage, thus enabling efficient mechanical motion. In emergency scenarios, it acts as a backup to keep critical components running. The battery pack 102 supports energy independence and system mobility. It allows for off-grid operation, making the entire system self-sustaining. Its rechargeability via both the generator 108 and the solar plate 112 improves flexibility. The battery pack 102 is thus integral to the system 100 for initialization, energy buffering, and operational stability. Without the battery pack 102, the entire energy cycle would fail to initialize or recover.

[0041] FIG. 2 illustrates an exemplary block diagram representation of an optimized large Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) electrical system powered by the proposed system, in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0042] Illustrated in FIG. 2 is a representation of an optimized large Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) electrical system 200 powered by the system 100. The system 100 begins operation with a battery pack 202, sized to match the power demands of the UPS electrical system 200. The battery pack 202 feeds an inverter 204, which is rated at half the total load, converting Direct Current (DC) battery power into Alternating Current (AC). The AC output then drives a motor 206, also rated at half the load, which transforms electrical energy into mechanical motion. The motor 206 powers a generator 208, which is intentionally rated at two times the load to ensure sufficient power generation capacity.

[0043] In an embodiment, the generator 208 supplies energy to a desired load 210, which represents the primary power-consuming component of the UPS electrical system 200. Simultaneously, part of the output of the generator 208 is fed into a rectifier 212. This rectifier 212 converts AC back into DC. The rectified DC is directed back into the battery pack 202, effectively closing the energy loop. This arrangement enables real-time battery recharge while the load 210 is being powered, improving energy efficiency. The inverter-motor-generator combination acts as a buffer, smoothing fluctuations and helping in load-sharing. The oversized generator 208 ensures the system 100 maintains a positive energy balance.

[0044] In an embodiment, the system 100 leverages mechanical inertia and controlled electrical conversion to minimize losses. The motor-generator unit allows energy recycling with minimal conversion losses under optimal load conditions. The inverter 204 and the motor 206 being half the load rating reduces capital cost and improves system redundancy. By recycling energy through rectification and charging, the system 100 reduces deep discharges and extends battery life. The NAP component of the rectifier 212 likely helps regulate voltage and prevent backflow to ensure safe charging . This approach ensures that the load 210 remains continuously powered even during grid outages. The looped system enhances autonomy by dynamically managing energy storage and output. Thus, the system 100 transforms traditional UPS systems into smart, semi-regenerative platforms with sustained performance.

[0045] FIG. 3 illustrates an exemplary block diagram representation of an optimized solarbased electricity generation unit as a discrete domestic version as an implementation of the proposed system for optimizing power usage in EVs, in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0046] Illustrated in FIG. 3 is a representation of an optimized solar-based electricity generation unit 300 as a discrete domestic version as an implementation of the system 100. The optimized solar-based electricity generation unit 300 begins operation with a solar panel 302, which serve as the primary energy source, converting sunlight into DC electricity. This energyis directed to an inverter 304, selected according to the solar panel ratings, which converts the DC electricity into AC suitable for domestic use. The output from the inverter 304 powers a motor 306, chosen to match the output rating of the inverter 304, ensuring optimal energy transfer. The motor 306 is mechanically coupled to a generator 308, which is rated to be twice that of the motor 306 to boost energy generation.

[0047] In an embodiment, the generator 308 splits the output into two equal parts. One-half of the output of the generator 308 is used to power an electrical load 310, which represents household appliances or equipment. The second half of the generator output is redirected toward system sustainability. This redirected power goes through a switch over unit 312, which intelligently decides energy routing based on system conditions. The switch over unit 312 may either send this power to the load 310 or back for inverter operation. There is also provision for a normal electrical supply line 314, which is used solely to start the inverter 304 when solar input is unavailable. The normal electrical supply line 314 ensures the optimized solar-based electricity generation unit 300 can initiate functioning under low sunlight or night conditions.

[0048] In an embodiment, the switch over unit 312 considers voltage thresholds or usage demands to determine whether solar-generated power is sufficient or backup is required. In the feedback loop, the output from the generator 308 also enters a rectifier 316 with non-reverse current protection, which converts AC back into DC. This rectified power is safely directed to support the inverter input without risking backflow or component damage. The rectifier 316 ensures the generator 308 does not get overloaded or reverse current from the inverter 204. The flow from the solar panel 302 to the inverter 304 to the motor 306 and back to the generator 308 allows a self-sustaining loop under optimal sunlight conditions. Meanwhile, load consumption is balanced dynamically, using solar or generator power as per availability.

[0049] In an embodiment, the optimized solar-based electricity generation unit 300 is configured to optimize power generation while reducing dependence on the grid. The switch over unit 312 is crucial, making real-time decisions to ensure uninterrupted energy supply. The optimized solar-based electricity generation unit 300 is modular and discrete, and is therefore, suitable for domestic rooftop solar installations. The system 100 enables the optimized solarbased electricity generation unit 300 to reduce energy bills, promote renewable usage, and minimize reliance on external grid power.

[0050] FIG. 4 illustrates an exemplary block diagram representation of an optimized solarbased electricity generation unit as an industrial version as an implementation of the proposed system for optimizing power usage and extending operational range of electrical systems, in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0051] Illustrated in FIG. 4 is a representation of an optimized solar-based electricity generation unit 400 as an industrial version as an implementation of the system 100.

[0052] In an embodiment, the optimized solar-based electricity generation unit 400 begins operation with a solar plate 402, which is the primary source of energy and convert sunlight into electrical power. To enhance solar efficiency, convex lenses 404 are positioned above the solar plate 402 to focus more sunlight onto them, increasing energy absorption. The DC power generated from the solar plate 402 is directed to an inverter 406, rated according to the maximum capacity of the solar plate 402. The inverter 406 converts DC to AC and powers a motor 308, which is selected to match 60% of the output rating of the inverter 406 to optimize energy usage. There is further provided a motor 408 that mechanically drives a generator 410, which is rated at three times the motor capacity to produce surplus electricity.

[0053] In an embodiment, a portion of the output of the generator 410 powers an industrial load 412, which requires energy equivalent to twice the rating of the motor 408. The rest of the generated power is directed into an auxiliary subsystem to maintain 24-hour operation. The subsystem may include a Light Emitting Diode (LED) photo unit 414, rated equal to the power of the motor 408, that emits focused light as an energy substitute during nighttime or low sunlight. The LED unit 414 is illuminated using the surplus power of the generator 410 and simulates sunlight. The concave lenses 404 is used to collimate and direct the LED light precisely into a fibre optic cable 416. The fibre optic cable 416 transmits the concentrated light to the solar plate 402, allowing the solar plate 402 to function even without actual sunlight. The convex lenses 404 at the solar end of the fibre optic cable 416 re-focus the artificial light onto the solar panel surfaces. This closed-loop system ensures that solar panel 402 continuously generate electricity by mimicking sunlight with LED light. This technique extends the operational time of the solar panel 402 to 24 hours, thus maximizing electricity output.

[0054] In an embodiment, the generator 410 is deliberately oversized to ensure both real-time load supply and artificial light generation. The LED photo unit 414 acts as a bridge between traditional electrical and modem optical systems. The LED photo 414 plays a crucial role in ensuring energy feedback during non-solar hours without external grid dependence. The fibre optic cable 416 minimizes energy loss and ensures accurate targeting of the artificial light. This optimized solar-based electricity generation unit 400 is particularly suitable for industrial operations where continuous, reliable, and renewable power is required. The optimized solarbased electricity generation unit 400 creatively combines optics and electromechanics to maximize sustainability and operational continuity.

[0056] Illustrated in FIG. 5 is a representation of a system 500 for optimizing power usage in EVs as an implementation of the system 100.

[0057] In an embodiment, the system 500 for optimizing power usage in EVs begins operation with a battery pack 502, whose capacity is matched to the power rating of an inverter 504. This inverter 504 converts DC battery power to AC, with capacities of 60 kW (LV), 15 kW (MV), and 300 W (ER). The inverter 504 powers a first motor 506, rated as per its output capacity, which drives the vehicle. The first motor 506 in turn is connected to a generator 508 acting as an energy recovery unit, with outputs of 250 kW (LV), 60 kW (MV), and 1 kW (ER).

[0058] In an embodiment, the generator 508 delivers energy to a vehicle driving motor 510, acting as a secondary drive system or power support, rated similarly at 250 kW, 60 kW, and 1 kW respectively. A key feature of the system 500 for optimizing power usage in EVs is an onboard charging system 512, incorporating a cylindrical wind turbine 512-2 made from lightweight polymer materials. The cylindrical wind turbines 512-2, each 24 inches in diameter and length, activate when the EV moves at or above 30 km / h or when stationary wind is present. The cylindrical wind turbine 512-2 drives a 15kW DC alternator 512-4, converting mechanical wind energy into electrical energy. This regenerated power is used to charge the battery pack 502 in real-time, enhancing system autonomy.

[0059] In an embodiment, the alternator 512-4 is capable of delivering 15kW, and multiple units can be connected in parallel for higher output. Low Voltage (LV) electrical systems utilize four such cylindrical wind turbines, Medium Voltage (MV) electrical systems use one cylindrical wind turbine, and Equipment Room (ER) has two smaller cylindrical wind turbines made from tabletop DC fans with housings. The compact cylindrical wind turbine 512-2 may be strategically integrated to minimize drag while maximizing airflow capture during motion.

[0060] In an embodiment, the system 500 for optimizing power usage in EVs eliminates sole dependency on external charging by introducing a self-sustaining energy loop. The system 500 for optimizing power usage in EVs ensures that a portion of the mechanical energy, typically lost, is continuously harnessed and recycled. The cyclical flow from the battery pack 502 to the generator 508, and back to the battery pack 502 through the cylindrical wind turbine 512-2 creates a hybrid regenerative model. The use of low-weight polymers for the cylindrical windturbine 512-2 reduces overall vehicle load while keeping them durable. The parallel connection of the alternators allows modularity and scalability. The system 500 for optimizing power usage in EVs promotes a longer operational range and better battery health by avoiding deep discharge cycles. The system 500 for optimizing power usage in EVs leverages basic aerodynamic principles and electromechanical conversions to create a cost-effective and environment-friendly mobility solution. Furthermore, the system 100 redefines EV power systems by combining mobility with passive energy harvesting.

[0061] FIG. 6 illustrates an exemplary flowchart representation of the proposed method for optimizing power usage and extending operational range of electrical systems, in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0062] Illustrated in FIG. 6 is a representation of the method 600 for optimizing power usage and extending operational range of electrical systems. The method 600 begins with providing 602 DC power input to the inverter 104 from the battery pack 102. The method 600 proceeds with feeding 604 the motor 106 with the AC output of the inverter 104. The method 600 proceeds with driving 606 the generator 108 with an output of the motor 106. The method 600 ends with rerouting 608-2 a portion of a generator output to the inverter 104 via the rectifier 110 or to a desired load 608-4.

[0063] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the method 600 of operation of the system 100 may begin with the DC power input, which can originate from either the battery pack 102 or the solar plate 112. The battery pack 102 provides stored electrical energy, while the solar plate 112 generates electricity when exposed to sunlight. This DC input is fed into the inverter 104, which converts the DC into alternating current (AC) suitable for powering the AC motor 106. The motor 106 is responsible for converting electrical energy into mechanical rotation. This mechanical rotation is then used to drive the generator 108, which produces AC electrical power at a much higher output — typically 3 to 4 times the rating of the motor 106 and the inverter 104.

[0064] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the high-capacity generator 108 creates excess energy, a portion of which is routed back through the rectifier 110. The rectifier 110 converts the AC output back into DC, making it usable for other DC components within the system. One-third of this regenerated DC electricity is directed back into the inverter 104, creating a feedback loop that sustains motor operation. This loop reduces dependency on external power sources, enhancing system efficiency. Simultaneously, some of the regenerated DC power is sent to the one or more LED plates 114. The one or more LED plates 114 emit artificial light to mimic sunlight, stimulating the solar plate 112 during low-light or indoorconditions. This enables continuous DC generation from the solar plate 112, even in the absence of natural light. The feedback of generated power allows the system to operate in a semi -autonomous or even self-sustaining mode under optimal conditions. The use of the battery pack 102 ensures startup capability and power supply when solar or generator output is low.

[0065] Once the system 100 is active, the motor 106 and the generator 108 pair drive the energy amplification cycle. The inverter 104 continues converting and routing power intelligently based on system demand. The rectifier 110 ensures that AC output from the generator is usable in DC subsystems. When excess power is available, it can recharge the battery pack 102, maintaining system resilience. The solar plate 112 acts as a renewable source, contributing directly to system efficiency. When natural sunlight is unavailable, the one or more LED plates 114 maintain system continuity. The OFC tunnel 116 optimizes light direction and intensity to ensure consistent solar plate activation. This integrated design allows multiple energy conversion and regeneration cycles to operate in tandem.

[0066] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the system 100 is capable of scaling up output while maintaining energy balance through feedback mechanisms. The inverter 104 plays a vital control role, dynamically adjusting based on power source and demand. The motor 106 operates as the link between electrical and mechanical domains. The generator 108 is the powerhouse, responsible for multiplying energy capacity. The rectifier 110 ensures backward compatibility with DC-based components. The one or more LED plates 114 simulates and supplements solar energy. The closed-loop system 100 is ideal for sustainable, autonomous energy generation and management. Overall, the operation hinges on efficient energy transformation, regeneration, and feedback, ensuring maximum output with minimal external input.
