Abstract

A method includes interpreting a powertrain load variation amplitude and an internal combustion engine output profile. The method further includes determining an engine output differential in response to the powertrain load variation amplitude and the internal combustion engine output profile. The method further includes providing an energy accumulator sizing parameter and/or an alternate motive power provider sizing parameter in response to the engine output differential.
