They can have a self - discharge rate of around 1 - 2% per month. This is one of the reasons why they're so widely used. . Power Capacity (MW) refers to the maximum rate at which a BESS can charge or discharge electricity. For example, a BESS rated at 10 MW can deliver or absorb up to 10 megawatts of power instantaneously. State-of-Health: 80% SoH indicates the retention capacity that will remain in the battery after a particular number of cycles. Depth-of-Discharge: DoD. . The discharging time of an energy storage container is not a fixed value but is influenced by several key factors: 1.
