Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to providing temporary, additional cooling to one or more elements of the vehicle on an as needed basis, e.g., under extreme conditions, when additional cooling is required or predicted to be needed, etc. According to one embodiment, the RC can be “overclocked” or “supercharged” to provide short-term, high output cooling performance under such conditions. For example, if the cooling system is a 10 kW system, it is increased to 15 kW for a short time period by increasing the electrical current and/or frequency to increase the torque and/or speed of the motor driving the RC. According to one embodiment, the cooling system can also be adapted to more effectively utilize the available cooling capacity, either the standard capacity to temporarily increased capacity, by directing the air or liquid coolant to one or more components in need of extra cooling.
