Abstract

An amount of power that is provided to a load is measured. The load is coupled to a battery backup unit (BBU) or an uninterruptable power supply (UPS). The amount of power is stored into a history of power draw for the load. The history of power draw is used to determine a time period or a situation when additional power is required by the load or reduced energy can be provided to the load. The charge of the BBU or the UPS is increased or reduced prior to the time period or the situation when the additional power is required by the load or the reduced energy can be provided to the load.
