Or, working backwards, the AC power output of the battery must be at least two-thirds of the AC power output of the PV array. For example, if we have a battery with a rated power output of 10 kW, we can install a maximum of 15 kW of solar PV (10 x 150% = 15).

The C-rate indicates the time it takes to fully charge or discharge a battery. To calculate the C-rate, the capability is divided by the capacity. For example, if a fully charged battery with a capacity of 100 kWh is discharged at 50 kW, the process takes two hours, and the C-rate is 0.5C or C/2.
Battery storage systems investigated ranged in size from 65 kWh/5 kW to 18MWh/3.6 MW (where the capacity of the line connecting the microgrid to the grid is 10 MW) , naturally depending on the size of the microgrid.
Dragicevic et al. counted the number of cycles over the time horizon for the assessment of battery degradation . Alternatively, State of Health (SOH) can be used to identify the degradation degree of the battery , accounting for the aging from cycling as well as the calendrical aging .
It is worthwhile mentioning that battery cycle life and operational parameters such as Depth of Discharge (DOD), and charge/discharge rates can also be regarded as significant indicators for battery size determination, more often serving as a constraint during the sizing process. There are many ways to evaluate the degradation of BESS.
