  • ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20240201277
    Abstract: A system, a method, and a computer program product for providing heterogeneous unifying battery storage. A state-of-health value of a battery is determined. The state-of-health value of the battery is less than an original capacity value of the battery. The battery is connected to an electrical power source for re-conditioning. A target state-of-health value for the battery and a number of cycles required to achieve the target state-of-health value of the battery are determined. Each cycle in the number of cycles includes at least one of: a charging the battery and a discharging the battery. The battery is re-conditioned by cycling the battery using the determined number of cycles. Cycling includes drawing electrical power from the electrical power source.
