Method and system for peer-to-peer energy transfer to mitigate thermal propagation and increase rechargeable energy storage system (ress) longevity

A system comprising:

• data processing hardware;
• and
• memory hardware in communication with the data processing hardware, the memory hardware storing instructions that when executed on the data processing hardware cause the data processing hardware to perform operations comprising:
• receiving a depletion request from a host peer connected to a peer communications network, the depletion request indicating that the host peer is experiencing a rechargeable energy storage system (RESS) event and including a desired power to discharge and a discharge duration;
• identifying one or more recipient peers each connected to the peer communications network, each recipient peer having an availability to accept the desired power to discharge;
• and
• executing a depletion process by instructing the host peer to discharge the power and the one or more recipient peers to accept the discharged power simultaneously such that zero (0) net current passes through an electrical grid in connection with the host peer and the one or more recipient peers.
