Rated power capacity is the total possible instantaneous discharge capability (in kilowatts or megawatts ) of the BESS, or the maximum rate of discharge that the BESS can achieve, starting from a fully charged state. Storage duration is the amount of time storage can discharge at its power capacity before depleting its energy capacity.
A battery energy storage system (BESS) is an electrochemical device that charges (or collects energy) from the grid or a power plant and then discharges that energy at a later time to provide electricity or other grid services when needed.
Duration = 40 MWh / 10 MW = 4 hours This means that if the battery is fully charged, and discharged at its maximum power rating, it will provide energy for four hours before needing a recharge. Of course, if it is discharged at less than its maximum rating, it could provide energy for a longer period of time.
