# Every cycle is a decision with a cost. > Battery storage intelligence for India: degradation-aware scheduling, value stacking and lifecycle tracking to monitor, predict, optimise and protect BESS. Source: https://myto.energy/bess-intelligence Two identical batteries, operated differently, earn different amounts over their life. BESS Intelligence decides how yours is operated: monitored every second, scheduled against price and forecast, and protected inside its limits. MonitorUnderstandPredictOptimiseProtect Battery intelligence ## Charge or discharge is the easy part. A controller can follow a timetable. Deciding well means answering five questions together, every block, with the answer changing as the day does. WhenWhich blocks to charge, discharge or hold. WhyWhich value stream justifies this cycle. HowAt what power, to what state of charge. At what costDegradation and round-trip losses priced in. Under what constraintsSoC bands, export limits, contracts and safety. Five functions ## Monitor. Understand. Predict. Optimise. Protect. AvailableBy design FunctionWhat Myto doesStatus MonitorState of charge, power, alarms and state of health read from the BMS and PCS each second over Modbus TCP, IEC 60870-5-104 or DNP3.Available UnderstandUsable energy, headroom and the cost of degradation per kWh, taken from the asset's profile, so every decision knows what a cycle costs.Available PredictLoad, solar and market price over the coming blocks. Forecast models are backtested and only promoted when they measure better.By design OptimiseA degradation-aware schedule with a reservation price below which the battery holds. It runs in shadow mode for operator review before anything is dispatched.By design ProtectSoC bands, power and discharge limits, fault rules and the dispatch gate. Limits are enforced before any objective is pursued.Available Learned health modelsAnomaly and degradation models trained on fleet data.By design Value stacking ## One battery, several jobs, one schedule. Value streams are compared against each other every block, not configured as a fixed mode for the year. Applicable based on project, market and regulatory conditions. Value streamWhat it needsStatus Tariff arbitrageCharge in cheap time-of-day windows, discharge in expensive ones, after the cycle cost.Available Peak demand managementCover the intervals that set the demand charge.Available Solar shifting and curtailment captureStore what the export limit would otherwise curtail; release it later.Available Exchange price arbitrageSchedule against IEX day-ahead and real-time prices. Bids are prepared for review; they are not submitted automatically.By design Deviation (DSM) avoidanceUse storage to keep actual close to schedule, with exposure estimated per block.By design Ancillary and reserve servicesFrequency response and reserve behaviours exist in first form; not prequalified with NLDC.By design Asset lifecycle ## From the first question to second life. Storage economics are decided long before commissioning and long after it. Myto's role changes at each stage, and so does how much of it ships today. ### Assess Which decisions storage would change on this site. Available ### Simulate Indicative revenue, payback and NPV from your data. By design ### Size Engineering sizing of energy, power and PCS. By design ### Commission Fixed-power tests and shadow-mode runs before arming. Available ### Operate Edge control, alarms, fleet view, audited actions. Available ### Optimise Degradation-aware scheduling against tariff and price. By design ### Maintain State of health tracking and rule-based fault detection. By design ### Second life / Recycle A battery passport register: pack, chemistry, SoH, cycles, origin. Not a certified passport issuer. By design [Simulate before you invest →](https://myto.energy/platform#simulate) What Myto is not ## We do not make batteries. Myto works above the BMS and PCS your integrator supplies. The BMS keeps the cells safe; Myto decides how the battery should work, and never overrides the BMS's protections.

We will run the schedule in simulation and show you where the cycles would go, with no invented return figure.
