All charging and discharging of a BESS is under the control of a dedicated battery management system.
BESS chemistries vary in their key technical characteristics including rated PowerElectrical represents rate at which Energy is transferred th... output (kW/MWh) and Energy Storage capacity (kWh/MWh), charge/discharge profile, operational longevity and round-trip efficiency. Common BESS types include Lithium-ion, Lead-acid and Redox Flow.
