    Under normal conditions the alternator is responsible for supplying all of the electrical energy required for the vehicle systems and the battery is only used to help in filtering out voltage spikes and supplying short duration of currents when heavy electrical loads are turned on (e.g electric engine cooling fans).

     

    The alternator is also responsible for charging the battery after the engine has been started, to replace the electrical energy that was stored in the battery and used to start the engine.
