Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Battery Storage





Have you looked for an example file which uses batteries?  Those are a good place to start; the examples always work and show you the node definitions and components that are needed for proper operation.

I am just looking for some generic battery to charge/discharge during my simulation, and I am at a total loss in how to set it up. Is there anyone that can help?

That sounds possible. Any idea of how to do that?

A couple of examples with Batteries and Storage, use the ElectricLoadCenter:Distribution to tie the battery in, however, after trying this I am still unable to "use" the battery.

There was a user that had a similar issue. From memory, the message from Linda then was to make sure that there is a load requiring power from the battery, else you won't see it working.

I have set up a Battery (at the moment the generic battery from the
inputoutputreference). I have tried using a Schedule to control the
battery, it is set for always on at the moment, however it would seem that
the battery is not available for consideration in the simulation. I am
tracking via external interface (and what to control that way as well), and
it seems that I am unable to get the battery available for use in my
simulations. Does anyone have any suggestions as to why this would be?
