Use-case priority
Resolves conflicts between resilience and commercial dispatch.

Draft a BESS sizing basis
A facility wants resilience and peak shaving but has provided only monthly bills. Define the evidence and first calculation model.
Build the decision from the required inputs.
State what is known, what remains assumed and what evidence would change the decision.
Score the evidence, not the effort.
Calculation
Separates kW, kWh, duration, losses and usable window.
Safety boundary
Identifies protection, islanding and site-engineering dependencies.
Commercial test
Defines sensitivity and an operating acceptance test.
MODEL-ANSWER GUIDANCECompare your structure after completing the exercise.+
Declare resilience reserve as the primary constraint and peak shaving as secondary.
Model PCS kW and battery kWh from interval data, duration, efficiency, SOC window and end-of-life capacity.
Hold islanding, protection and fire strategy for approved engineering and authority review.
Reproduce actual tariff bills and run degradation, downtime and tariff sensitivities.
