Title: Systems and methods for optimizing component placement in a battery design

Abstract

Systems, computer readable media, and method concern determining operational parameters of an inventory of components to be included in a battery. The components can include storage components and electrical components. The method includes generating a system of equations that describe suitable combinations of components in locations in a battery design layout for the battery, the system of equations being generated based at least partially on rules and constraints, and includes analyzing the system of equations using integer optimization. The integer optimization can optimizes, based at least partially on the operational parameters, one or more objective functions in the system of equations to determine at least one solution for the battery design layout, and the at least one solution can include a set of the components for the locations in the battery design layout for the battery. The method includes providing, via an interface, the at least one solution.
