Abstract
A method of energy dispatch for an energy storage device component of a local energy generation plant, the method including obtaining a charge/discharge profile for the energy storage device, quantifying an amount of energy generation available from energy source components of the local energy generation plant, accessing a degradation factor for the energy storage device, forecasting a future cost for storing energy in the energy storage device, evaluating the future cost, providing instruction to an energy storage plant control unit to increase energy storage in the energy storage device based on a result of the evaluation, else, instructing the energy storage plant control unit to decrease energy storage in the energy storage device, and shedding power from the energy source components if a recommendation to shed power was provided. A system for implementing the method and a non-transitory computer-readable medium are also disclosed.
