Energy Storage Calculator

Energy Storage Calculator calculator can be used to estimate the energy storage capacity in kilowatt-hours (kWh) based on power (kW), efficiency (%), and duration (hours).

Input Parameters

Calculation Results

Calculation Formula

Energy (kWh) = Power (kW) × Duration (hours) × (Efficiency / 100)

Where:
Power (kW): The power output of the storage system
Efficiency (%): The efficiency of the storage system
Duration (hours): The duration of energy storage
Energy (kWh): The energy stored in kilowatt-hours

Result

Energy (kWh): 0.00

Energy Storage Calculator Calculator Usage Guide

Learn how to use the Energy Storage Calculator calculator and its working principles

How to Use the Calculator

  1. Enter the power output of your energy storage system in kilowatts (kW).
  2. Enter the efficiency of your energy storage system as a percentage.
  3. Enter the duration for which you want to store energy in hours.
  4. Click the "Calculate" button to get the estimated energy storage capacity in kilowatt-hours (kWh).

Working Principle

The calculator uses the following formula to estimate the energy storage capacity:

Energy (kWh) = Power (kW) × Duration (hours) × (Efficiency / 100)

This formula takes into account the power output, efficiency, and duration to provide an estimate of the energy that can be stored in the system.

Example

For example, if you have an energy storage system with a power output of 5 kW, an efficiency of 90%, and you want to store energy for 4 hours, the calculation would be:

Energy (kWh) = 5 kW × 4 hours × (90 / 100) = 18 kWh

This means that the system can store approximately 18 kilowatt-hours of energy.
