A method for adaptive power engine control of a transport refrigeration unit (TRU) is provided. The method includes determining a current compressor power of a compressor of the TRU. The method also includes determining an adaptive compressor power error of the compressor. Also, the method includes calculating and setting a target compressor power of the compressor based on the current compressor power and the adaptive compressor power error. Further, the method includes determining a suction pressure control point of the compressor based on the target compressor power and a compressor curve map. Moreover, the method includes operating the compressor with the suction pressure control point of the compressor.
