    Abstract: A mobile energy supply system may include a fuel source, an energy converter, and a transfer device. The fuel source may be disposed onboard a vehicle chassis and may hold a supply of a fuel. The energy converter may be disposed onboard the vehicle chassis and may convert at least a portion of the supply of the fuel from the fuel source into electric energy. The transfer device may be disposed onboard the vehicle chassis and be electrically couplable to a propulsion vehicle. The transfer device may transfer the electric energy from the energy converter offboard of the vehicle chassis and to the propulsion vehicle for powering a propulsion system of the propulsion vehicle.
