2010-2015 prius ac compressor option?

Hello all,
I have been dreaming of doing an electric ac system retrofit into a non hybrid vehicle, without adding access weight.
This is more due to engine bay space and as always mileage in mind.
so my thought has been a 3rd generation Toyota Prius ac compressor has it's own inverter on the compressor its self so aside from the controller its self you only need to supply DC power and ground to compressor.
My goal is to use a DC booster to run 24v to the compressor to avoid trying to also retrofit the Prius 201.6v H.V. battery as well, as stated before the lighter the better
Now the question and hurtle that I am facing is:
1) I don't know how to program
2) I don't know the inverter/controller pinout on the compressor
so this is where I reach out to the brilliance on this forum of anyone and everyone that has experience in this area or possible solution for controller?
Thanks in advance
