Patent abstract
A method of controlling an idle speed of an engine of a vehicle includes evaluating a plurality of instantaneous current requirements of the vehicle at respective points in time. The engine is a variably set to idle speeds based upon the evaluated instantaneous current requirement of the vehicle such that the idle speeds are above minimum engine idle speeds required to produce alternator output currents that satisfy the evaluated instantaneous current requirements of the vehicle.
