Abstract
The present disclosure provides systems and methods for managing a temperature of a battery energy storage system (“BESS”). A method may comprise obtaining a charge/discharge schedule for a battery energy storage system (BESS) for a first time period; identifying, from the charge/discharge schedule, a charge or discharge time period of the BESS within the first time period; calculating a beginning time of a temperature control time period in which equipment operates to control a temperature of the BESS to reach a target temperature by a beginning time of the charge or discharge time period; and controlling the equipment operating to control the temperature of the BESS for the temperature control time period such that the temperature of the BESS reaches the target temperature by the beginning time of the charge or discharge time period.
