Battery Discharge Transition Time

Units:	h
Mode:	Input Only
Multi-band:	False
Default Value:	0
Validation Rule:	≥0
Key Property:	No
Description:	Minimum time between operating in discharge mode and charge mode

Battery Discharge Transition Time sets the minimum time between operating in discharge mode and charge mode. By default, the battery can switch between modes from one interval to the next.

Table 1: Battery Transition Time Examples
Battery	Property	Value	Units
4hr	Units	1	-
4hr	Capacity	100	MWh
4hr	Max Power	25	MW
4hr	Charge Efficiency	95	%
4hr	Discharge Efficiency	95	%
4hr	Discharge Transition Time	1	h
4hr	Charge Transition Time	2	h

For the example in Table 1 the battery must wait at least one hour after discharging before it can charge or two hours to discharge after charging.
