Claim:
1. A computer-implemented method for controlling an operation of an energy storage system of a micro-hybrid vehicle, the method comprising: determining, using a processor, a driving mode of the micro-hybrid vehicle, and determining a speed of the micro-hybrid vehicle when in the driving mode, wherein the driving mode comprises one of an engine-off mode, an acceleration mode, or a slow-down mode; determining, using the processor, a target state of charge (SOC) of each of a first energy storage device and a second energy storage device based on the speed; determining, using the processor, a current SOC of each of the first energy storage device and the second energy storage device; determining, using the processor, an amount of power available from a regenerative event for: directing, using the processor, a power flow from the regenerative event to the first energy storage device, the second energy storage device, the electrical accessories associated with the micro-hybrid vehicle, and the motor associated with the micro-hybrid vehicle using a fuzzy logic and the amount of power available from the regenerative event, wherein the fuzzy logic is configured to cause the processor to:
