Operating profile and site demand
Define why the installation is needed, when it will charge and discharge, and which site conditions restrict operation. These inputs guide the discussion of power, energy capacity and integration.

Connect energy, equipment and the site.
A storage project joins several technical systems with different responsibilities. The battery management system protects and monitors the battery; conversion equipment manages the electrical exchange; supervisory controls coordinate the wider operating request. Their boundaries need to be explicit.
The final configuration depends on the site requirements, the equipment available and the agreed scope of work. Interface planning connects those decisions with installation, testing and the information needed for operation.
Select a layer to see how it connects to the wider installation.
Define why the installation is needed, when it will charge and discharge, and which site conditions restrict operation. These inputs guide the discussion of power, energy capacity and integration.
Coordinate the battery system, power conversion equipment and supervisory control interface. Document the available equipment information and identify any limitations that affect integration.
Review civil interfaces, cable routes, environmental conditions and maintenance access. Establish who prepares, witnesses and records each commissioning activity.
Distinguish the required discharge power from the usable energy and the intended operating duration.
Agree electrical connections, communications, protection responsibilities and command ownership.
Define alarm checks, interface tests, operational records and the documents required for handover.
An interface register should identify each connection, the information needed to complete it and the party responsible for verification. Keeping this record current gives installation and commissioning teams a common reference when equipment or site conditions change.
At acceptance, drawings and equipment schedules should reflect the delivered arrangement. Test records, settings and agreed operating instructions then provide a useful starting point for maintenance and future modifications.
