All vehicles have regenerative braking and suspension system. Only 26 % of the available fuel energy is used to drive the vehicle, i.e. to overcome the resistance from road friction. In a vehicle the important losses are dissipation of vibration energy by shock absorbers in the vehicle suspensionand frictional loss during the regenerative braking.This paper is made with a purpose to inform in a concise way the essence of regenerative braking, suspension system and different methods, utilized to accumulate recuperated energy. Electric vehicles are a broad but very exciting and rapidly spreading topic concerning the following needs and factors: to lower emissions in the environment, to use green energy sources, increased energy demand and consumption etc. Regenerative braking is a process of deceleration of an electric vehicle (plug-in or hybrid) by converting mechanical energy to electrical via generator operation of its motor, while also providing brake torque, and further accumulating it in storage systems. This process extends their range or lowers fuel consumption respectively. Regenerative shock absorber is a type of suspension system that converts parasitic intermittent linear motion & vibration into use full energy, such as electricity. Conventional shock absorber simply dissipates this energy as heat. A conceptual regenerative braking and suspension system is designed and tested using a fabricated prototype.
