Abstract
The present disclosure provides systems and methods for providing power from an energy storage system (ESS). A method may include, for each of a plurality of energy storage units, calculating a length of time to complete discharge for the energy storage unit according to a rated power capacity of the energy storage unit and an amount of stored energy in the energy storage unit; determining a discharge control protocol for the plurality of energy storage units based on the calculated lengths of time to complete discharge, the discharge control protocol indicating a period of time to discharge power to an energy grid and an amount of power to discharge to the energy grid during the period of time; and discharging the plurality of energy storage units to the energy grid according to the discharge control protocol.
