Systems and methods for managing batteries in a battery exchange station

A battery exchange station, comprising:

• a processor;
• a storage device coupled to the processor and configured to store a battery demand prediction for the battery exchange station;
• and
• a plurality of battery slots coupled to the processor and configured to receive a plurality of exchangeable batteries respectively;
• wherein the processor is configured to receive battery information from a memory attached to each of the plurality of exchangeable batteries respectively positioned in the plurality of battery slots;
• wherein the processor is configured to receive a battery demand prediction associated with the battery exchange station;
• wherein the processor is configured to identify one or more uninterruptible-power-supply (UPS) batteries from the plurality of exchangeable batteries based in part on the battery demand prediction;
• wherein the processor is configured to assign a priority to each of the plurality of exchangeable batteries except the one or more UPS batteries, and wherein the priority is determined at least partially based on a determination that whether the battery demand prediction corresponds to a critical hour;
• and
• wherein the processor is configured to, in response to a power interruption of the battery exchange station, instruct the one or more UPS batteries to discharge to sustain an operation of the battery exchange station.
