Abstract: Systems and methods for controlling behind-the meter energy storage/management systems (EMSs) for battery-optimized demand charge minimized operations, including determining an optimal monthly demand charge threshold based on a received customer load profile and a customer load profile and savings. The determining of the monthly demand charge threshold includes iteratively performing daily optimizations to determine a daily optimal demand threshold for each day of a month, selecting a monthly demand threshold by clustering the daily optimal demand thresholds for each day of the month into groups, and determining a dominant group representative of a load pattern for a next month.

Abstract: Systems and methods for controlling behind-the meter energy storage/management systems (EMSs) to maximize battery lifetime, including determining optimal monthly demand charge thresholds based on a received customer load profile, battery manufacturer specifications, and battery operating conditions and parameters. The determining of the monthly demand charge threshold includes iteratively performing daily optimizations to determine battery utilization, and minimize demand charge for each day for the load profile. A battery lifetime is predicted based on manufacturer specifications and utilization determined by the daily optimizations. A battery capacity retention value and battery capacity loss are determined based on an annual discharged energy (AADE) and an average battery state-of-charge (SoC). An optimal monthly demand threshold is selected based on the predicted battery lifetime and demand charge utilization.
