Abstract

Self-discharging reserve power units and related methods are described. A self-discharging reserve power unit comprises an electrical energy storage component to provide power to a process control device. The electric energy storage component is coupled to an energy discharge component and a controller, which causes the discharge component to discharge energy from the electrical energy storage component following completion of an operation by the process control device.
