Tool 02BESS & microgrids
Operating objective and evidence readiness.
A battery should not be sized until its required operating result and controlling evidence are defined.
PRIMARY OPERATING OBJECTIVE
EVIDENCE MATURITY
Record whether each input is unavailable, identified, documented or verified. The decision gate advances from evidence maturity, not the number of selected categories.
Choose the strongest statement you can support today.
Read from 1 to 4 and choose the furthest statement you can honestly support. If you are unsure, keep the first answer.
1I don't have this yetNot availableNo usable evidence is currently available.
2I know what to request or who may have itIdentifiedThe requirement is known, but no controlled record is available.
3I have a current record or datasetDocumentedA current document or dataset is available for review.
4I checked the record, source and revisionVerifiedThe source and revision have been checked.
01Interval load data
Recorded as Not available: No usable evidence is currently available.
Help me find and verify this
What this means
Time-based electricity-use records that show when demand rises and falls, not only the monthly total.
Where to find it
Ask the utility, energy manager or facilities team for recent meter interval exports or monitoring data.
Call it verified when
The file covers the intended site and period, has readable intervals and has been checked against its source.
02Current tariff and bills
Recorded as Not available: No usable evidence is currently available.
Help me find and verify this
What this means
The current electricity rate structure and recent bills used to understand what the site pays for.
Where to find it
Ask finance, facilities or the utility account owner for the active tariff and recent complete bills.
Call it verified when
The tariff is active for the correct account and the bills are complete, recent and source-checked.
03Outage history
Recorded as Not available: No usable evidence is currently available.
Help me find and verify this
What this means
A record of how often power is lost, how long outages last and which operations are affected.
Where to find it
Ask operations, maintenance or facilities for incident logs, generator logs or utility outage records.
Call it verified when
Dates and durations have been checked with the operating owner or another reliable record.
04Critical-load schedule
Recorded as Not available: No usable evidence is currently available.
Help me find and verify this
What this means
The equipment that must keep running, its demand and how long backup power is required.
Where to find it
Build it with operations and the electrical team using equipment schedules, panels and operating hours.
Call it verified when
Operations owns the priority list and electrical records support the demand and required duration.
05Site single-line and transformer data
Recorded as Not available: No usable evidence is currently available.
Help me find and verify this
What this means
The current electrical diagram and equipment ratings that show how power reaches and is distributed at the site.
Where to find it
Ask the site electrical engineer, facilities team or records custodian for the latest approved set.
Call it verified when
The drawing matches the installed site and the transformer ratings and revision have been checked.
06Existing or planned generation
Recorded as Not available: No usable evidence is currently available.
Help me find and verify this
What this means
Any solar, generator or other power source that already operates at the site or is firmly planned.
Where to find it
Ask facilities, the renewable-energy owner or project team for ratings, drawings and operating information.
Call it verified when
The source, rating, connection point and operating status match current approved records.
07Operating and controls assumptions
Recorded as Not available: No usable evidence is currently available.
Help me find and verify this
What this means
The rules for when the battery should charge, discharge, support loads or coordinate with other sources.
Where to find it
Agree these with operations, facilities and the controls or energy-management owner.
Call it verified when
A named owner has approved the operating priorities, limits and control responsibilities.
08Commercial assumptions
Recorded as Not available: No usable evidence is currently available.
Help me find and verify this
What this means
The working cost, savings, ownership, financing and evaluation assumptions behind the business case.
Where to find it
Ask finance and the project sponsor for the approved evaluation basis and decision thresholds.
Call it verified when
The responsible commercial owner has checked the assumptions, date, currency and approval basis.
