Abstract
A method and a system for changing the power consumption value available for an HVAC unit of a vehicle when an available battery power for batteries of the vehicle is low. A method and a system for non-linearly changing the power consumption value available for the HVAC unit when the available battery power decreases to a power value less than a low power value. The system can be a vehicle including batteries, an HVAC unit, an ECU and a memory. The method may include setting an HVAC power consumption value to a relatively constant power value when the available battery power is greater than a low power value and decreasing the HVAC power consumption value by a non-linear rate of power reduction when the available battery power decreases to a power value less than the low power value.
