It has two power supplies a 36V hydrogen fuel cell and a 24V battery. The FC is for cruising speeds and the battery is for sharp acceleration and start-up. When the switch is closed the fuel cell will power the motor and force the Schottky into a reverse bias, which prevents the battery from discharging (as well as can be expected) through the circuit. This set's up a voltage differential within the op-amp (comparator) which activates the op-amp to send current from the generator into the battery. Power source can be from back-emf circuits or from a wheel connected generator or another battery. When the FC switch is open the battery discharges into the motor and the op-amp closes the current between the generator and the battery and instead sends the generators current into an electrolyzer to create and store H2 (this can be toggled on and off) Essentially the circuits is supposed to allow control over discharge and recharging of current sources for a DC motor.
