1. A method, comprising:
determining a benefit gradient associated with discharging of an energy storage;
determining, using an energy storage lifetime model, a cost gradient associated with degradation of the energy storage, wherein the degradation comprises a loss of capacity of the energy storage on a lifetime capacity of the energy storage, wherein the cost gradient is determined at least in part by determining a measure of lost cycles associated with the loss of capacity, and wherein the loss of capacity is determined based on an amount of capacity that will be removed from the battery for the rest of the lifetime capacity of the battery if a cycle with a certain set of parameters were performed;
applying a threshold to the benefit gradient and the cost gradient; and
facilitating discharging of the energy storage based at least in part on the threshold being met or exceeded, comprising:
transmitting, over a network, a set of instructions for the discharging of the energy storage.
