1. The battery storage capacity in MWh should be clearly displayed.
2. Users are interested in the arbitrage value and the income of batteries.
summing battery 'generators' and 'loads' doesn't make sense — market value is discharging income less charging cost. in many cases the charging cost will be negative, so here the market value is actually $13.5k + $3.7k = $17.2k.
in place of average value, we're really interested in the average net income — the spread? this would be [discharging income minus charging cost] / discharging volume.
3. Users are also interested in the number of "turns" of the battery.
In this case, the battery discharged 37,698MWh in the quarter, which for a 450MWh battery, is 83.8 turns, or 0.91 turns/day.
note that over shorter periods these numbers become nonsense — since the amounts of the energy in the battery at the start and end of the period are unknown.
Needs design work, but some early thoughts:
