. . .on what? sorry I didn't know I proposed something different.
On the alternator producing X watts? I suspect that is the case because it works like that on regenerative braking that I have used in the past. The vehicle was a narrow gauge railroad car that was electric. Had battery readouts, voltage, current and (trivially) power output when the system was running either direction. Power/RPM peaked around I think it was 2000 RPM or 25 MPH(very small wheels). If you popped the brakes on going faster than that you didn't get much more voltage or current and it peaked out shortly after that.
