What is power capacity (mw)?
Power Capacity (MW) refers to the maximum rate at which a BESS can charge or discharge electricity. It determines how quickly the system can respond to fluctuations in energy demand or supply. For example, a BESS rated at 10 MW can deliver or absorb up to 10 megawatts of power instantaneously.
What is energy capacity?
Energy Capacity (MWh) indicates the total amount of energy a BESS can store and subsequently deliver over time. It defines the duration for which the system can supply power before recharging is necessary. For instance, a BESS with an energy capacity of 20 MWh can provide 10 MW of power continuously for 2 hours (since 10 MW × 2 hours = 20 MWh).
What is storage duration?
Storage duration is the amount of time storage can discharge at its power capacity before depleting its energy capacity. For example, a battery with 1 MW of power capacity and 4 MWh of usable energy capacity will have a storage duration of four hours.

FAQS about Base station energy storage battery discharge power
How does a battery group work in a base station?
The equipment in base stations is usually supported by the utility grid, where the battery group is installed as the backup power. In case that the utility grid interrupts, the battery discharges to support the communication switching equipment during the period of the power outage.

The original battery allocation result is largely skewed that over 65 percent base stations are equipped with only one battery group. Our framework considers both the base station situations and battery fea-tures, allocating 2 battery groups to most base stations and 3 or 4 battery groups to those with long-time power outages.
