Zephyr
VPP & BESS ARCHITECTURAL SPECIFICATION

Sub-Second Power Dispatch & Battery Optimization.

Deep architectural inspection of Zephyr's predictive neural mesoscale weather engine, battery degradation physics modeling, and SCADA telemetry bridges.

PILLAR 01

High-Resolution Mesoscale Weather Ingestion

Fuses HRRR Doppler radar, GOES-R satellite albedo imagery, and on-site ultrasonic anemometer arrays to simulate cloud shadow velocity and wind shear across individual turbine hub heights.

Resolution:100m² Spatial Grid
Forecast Horizon:0–168 Hours (Day-Ahead)
Model Refresh:Sub-Minute Real-Time
PILLAR 02

Electrochemical Degradation Physics Model

Accounts for Solid Electrolyte Interphase (SEI) growth, lithium plating under rapid C-rate charging, and thermal ambient dissipation to guarantee minimum 15-year BESS warrantied lifespan.

Degradation Cap:<1.8% Annual Loss
Cell Chemistry:LFP / NMC / Solid State
Thermal Guard:Liquid Cooling Interlock
PILLAR 03

Sub-Second Fast Frequency Response (FFR)

Edge-deployed controllers measuring grid frequency at 10,000 samples per second. When unexpected generation loss trips grid inertia below 49.8 Hz, Zephyr discharges full rated MW within 320ms.

Reaction Latency:320ms Edge Response
Standards:IEEE 1547-2018 / NERC CIP
Protocol:DNP3 / IEC 61850
PILLAR 04

Algorithmic Nodal Power Arbitrage

Automated bidding bot interfacing with ISO day-ahead and real-time balancing markets. Automatically charges storage during negative wholesale prices and dispatches during extreme evening scarcity peaks.

Market Protocols:CAISO, ERCOT, PJM, Eskom
Settlement Time:5-Minute Intervals
Revenue Lift:+28.4% Over Static Bidding
