PERFORMING PASSIVE MAINTENANCE ON AN ENERGY STORAGE FARM

摘要

In one aspect, a method of performing a passive maintenance operation on an energy storage farm may generally include receiving data associated with a maintenance schedule for each energy storage system in the plurality of energy storage systems, identifying at least one energy storage system as a charge contributor based at least in part on the data associated with the maintenance schedule, identifying at least one energy storage system as a discharge contributor based at least in part on the data associated with the maintenance schedule, and controlling the operation of the energy storage farm such that power distribution in the energy storage farm is biased so as to increase the state of charge of the charge contributor(s) prior to increasing the state of charge of the discharge contributor(s).

1. A method for distributing power among a plurality of energy storage systems in an energy storage farm, each energy storage system of the plurality of energy storage systems having at least one energy storage device, the method comprising:
receiving data associated with a maintenance schedule for each energy storage system in the plurality of energy storage systems, the maintenance schedule associated at least in part with a maintenance operation for increasing a state of charge of each energy storage system to a top-of-charge state; identifying at least one energy storage system as a charge contributor based at least in part on the data associated with the maintenance schedule; identifying at least one energy storage system as a discharge contributor based at least in part on the data associated with the maintenance schedule; and controlling the operation of the energy storage farm such that power distribution in the energy storage farm is biased so as to increase the state of charge of the charge contributor prior to increasing the state of charge of the discharge contributor.
