Tab 1: Engineering Telemetry Summary
During Quarter 3, the facility's grid-scale battery energy storage system logged a roundtrip charge-discharge efficiency of . Telemetry sensors recorded energy input and output strictly across the battery cell terminals during active storage cycles.
Tab 2: Financial Utility Billing Report
Energy billing records for Quarter 3 indicate that total kilowatt-hours () purchased from the regional utility grid exceeded baseline operating projections by . Financial auditors concluded that net facility energy losses were far higher than the loss implied by battery telemetry.
Tab 3: Operations Maintenance Log
All auxiliary HVAC cooling units and thermal control systems operate on dedicated grid sub-circuits that bypass battery cell meters. Operational policy mandates continuous thermal conditioning whenever ambient site temperatures exceed . During Quarter 3, site temperatures exceeded for of operational hours.
Based on the information provided across the three tabs, which of the following statements, if true, help resolve the apparent discrepancy between the battery efficiency reported in Tab 1 and the excess energy consumption reported in Tab 2? Select all that apply.
- The battery telemetry in Tab 1 records power passing directly through cell terminals during active cycles, omitting energy consumed by auxiliary cooling units running on separate grid sub-circuits.Cevap
- Prolonged ambient temperatures above in Quarter 3 triggered continuous operation of auxiliary cooling units, drawing substantial unmetered grid electricity.Cevap
- CRegional electricity supply tariffs increased by per kilowatt-hour during peak demand hours throughout Quarter 3.
- DThe internal chemical energy storage capacity of the battery cells degraded severely during Quarter 3 due to high operating temperatures.
- EBattery charging cycles took place predominantly during off-peak night hours when overall regional grid demand was low.
