The idea is to take as little energy as possible from the internal combustion engine. We then multiplied the sources of electrical energy for power units by adding solar panels and installing an exhaust gas heat energy recovery system based on the Rankine cycle. The more energy there is available at low cost, the more it will be used.

The Ricardo CryoPower split-cycle engine concept redefines the processes of internal combustion to enable significantly improved internal thermal efficiency in comparison with today’s state-of-the-art engines. CryoPower is based on the use of a separate induction and compression cylinder from that used for combustion and exhaust.
