Class Battery

org.powertac.customer.AbstractCustomer

org.powertac.customer.model.Battery

All Implemented Interfaces:

CustomerModelAccessor

@Domain
 @ConfigurableInstance
public class Battery
extends AbstractCustomer
implements CustomerModelAccessor

Models a single grid-connected storage battery with configurable capacity, max charge rate, max discharge rate, and efficiency. Batteries do not charge unless used for regulation, so repeated use for up-regulation will leave them discharged, and repeated use for down-regulation will leave them fully charged. If not used at all, they will eventually end up completely discharged just in case their selfDischargeRate values are non-zero. The initial state-of-charge is always 0.0;

Constructor Detail

Battery

public Battery()

Default constructor, requires manual setting of name

Battery

public Battery(String name)

Standard constructor for named configurable type

Method Detail

initialize

public void initialize()

Initialization must provide accessor to Customer instance and time. We assume configuration has already happened. We start with the battery at its targetSOC.

Overrides:

initialize in class AbstractCustomer

getCustomerInfo

public CustomerInfo getCustomerInfo()

Specified by:

getCustomerInfo in interface CustomerModelAccessor

step

public void step()

Specified by:

step in class AbstractCustomer

getName

public String getName()

Overrides:

getName in class AbstractCustomer

setName

public void setName(String name)

Overrides:

setName in class AbstractCustomer
