Claim 12:
13. A method of controlling a mobile work machine, comprising:
initiating an electric motor that is powered by a battery to drive a set of ground engaging elements, the battery having a steady state regeneration energy capacity defining a first rate at which the battery can continuously receive regeneration energy, generated by the electric motor, and a power surge capacity defining a second rate at which the battery can temporarily receive regeneration energy, generated by the electric motor, the second rate greater than the first rate;
detecting a variable indicative of the power surge capacity of the battery;
generating, a power surge capacity indicator indicative of the power surge capacity of the battery based on the detected variable; and
controlling application of regeneration energy, generated by the electric motor, to the battery, based on the power surge capacity indicator.
