- 1Energy capacity (kWh): total storable energy
- 2Power rating (kW): maximum charge/discharge rate
- 3Round-trip efficiency: (energy out / energy in) typically 80-95%
Worked Examples
Влез
10 kWh battery, 5 kW power, 90% efficiency
Резултат
Stores 10 hours full discharge or 2 hours at 5 kW, loses ~1 kWh round-trip
Typical battery performance
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- ✕Neglecting efficiency losses in energy balance
- ✕Over-sizing battery (unnecessary cost)
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do batteries lose efficiency?
Internal resistance generates heat during charge/discharge cycles; chemistry determines losses.
How long do batteries last?
Lithium-ion: 10-15 years, 2000-5000 cycles. Degradation accelerates with age and temperature.
