energy recovery

Energy recovery includes any technique or method of minimizing the input of energy to an overall system by the exchange of energy from one sub-system of the overall system with another. The energy can be in any form in either subsystem, but most energy recovery systems exchange thermal energy in either sensible or latent form.
In some circumstances the use of an enabling technology, either daily thermal energy storage or seasonal thermal energy storage (STES, which allows heat or cold storage between opposing seasons), is necessary to make energy recovery practicable. One example is waste heat from air conditioning machinery stored in a buffer tank to aid in night time heating.

    Regenerative Braking: beginners explanation, please

    Please explain it to me like I’ve never owned an EV before! :) I understand the one-pedal driving concept. Seems like a good idea but not one for me, at least not yet anyway. I also get the mechanics behind regenerative braking, it’s more the selecting of 1/2/3/A that I’m asking about. Is this...

    Level 1 regeneration. MGS5.

    Well, having written reams on how level 1 regen is the one for me, I've been trying level 2 regen and I'm actually finding its pretty good. Bit of a shame the setting cannot it seems be stored as my preferred setting, but its not the end of the world considering what a good car it is.

    One pedal driving vs KERs

    Hi I have taken delivery of my new camden grey S5 having upgraded from a ZS EV and everything is fine so far. I am very happy with it. This is the first car I've had with one pedal driving, and what I was hoping some one could explain is, is the energy recovery better on one pedal driving or...

    we need a level 3 regenerative braking

    2 isnt enough. You still need to use the brake pedal too much - and when you use the brake you can see the power going more negative when means pressing the brake increases the regenerative braking more before the actual brakes are eventually applied. I actually find this baffling and infuriating.

    Driving with one pedal

    If you set the setting for driving with 1 pedal on a fully loaded MG, this setting does not work, this setting only works when you apparently have 85% battery capacity. Is it correct that this setting is completely linked to energy recovery because it seems that if this setting works, it...
