If that bank may be discharged only to 50 per cent, its usable capacity is

  • A.2.4 kWh
  • B.19.2 kWh
  • C.4.8 kWh
  • D.9.6 kWh

Answer: C

Correct answer: 4.8 kWh

Half the nameplate capacity may be used:

\[ 9.6 \times 0.5 = 4.8 \ \mathrm{kWh} \]

The other half is left in the battery deliberately, to obtain the cycle life that a shallow discharge gives. This is why a system specified to deliver a given usable energy must be bought at twice that nameplate, and why usable rather than rated capacity is the figure that matters commercially.
