Abstract
Provided is an auxiliary power module removably connectable to a mobile platform, such as a municipal vehicle having a prime mover mounted thereon for powering the auxiliary power module. The auxiliary power module includes a connector configured to be fluidly connected to a connector on the vehicle, a hydraulic motor fluidly connected to the connector through a hydraulic circuit, and an auxiliary device, such as a generator, mechanically driven by the hydraulic motor. When the auxiliary power module is connected to the municipal vehicle, the existing vehicle hydraulic circuit may be used with the auxiliary power module to provide output power from the generator during emergency and disaster situations.
