A system for managing power cell information resources of a non-petroleum
fueled vehicle, particularly electric or fuel cell vehicles of a fleet of
vehicles. Such vehicles have power pack instrumentation for wirelessly
reporting data to a base station computer including power pack charge
parameters and GPS location in real-time. This data is applied to a
database which documents past vehicle performance as well as contains
minimal acceptable vehicle parameters. A prediction is made regarding
remaining range, state of charge and vehicle scheduling, considering
vehicle load or mileage efficiency and GPS location of the vehicle for
appropriate dispatch.
