1. A transport refrigeration system, the system comprising:
a refrigeration unit, the refrigeration unit comprising one or more components;
an electric motor operatively connected to a power source; and
a controller operatively connected with the electric motor and the one or more components of the refrigeration unit, wherein the controller is configured to:
generate a control signal that sends power to the electric motor to generate magnetic reluctance and convert the electric motor to an electric generator; and
direct power generated by the electric motor through the controller to the one or more components of the refrigeration unit.
