contents Batteries are playing an increasingly central role as distributed energy resources in the shift toward power systems dominated by renewable energy sources. However, existing battery models must invariably rely on complementarity constraints to prevent simultaneous charging and discharging, rendering models of a disjunctive nature and NP-hard. In this paper, we analyze the disjunctive structure of the battery's feasible operational set and uncover a submodularity property in its extreme power trajectories. Leveraging this structure, we propose a systematic approach to derive linear valid inequalities that define facets of the convex hull of the battery's feasible operational set, including a distinguished family that generalizes and dominates existing formulations in the literature. To evaluate the practical utility of these inequalities, we conduct computational experiments on two representative problems whose continuous relaxations frequently result in simultaneous charge and discharge: energy arbitrage under negative prices and set-point tracking. For the latter, we further introduce second-order cone inequalities that remarkably and efficiently reduce simultaneous charging and discharging. Our results highlight the potential of structured relaxations to enhance the tractability and fidelity of battery models in optimization-based energy system tools.

Batteries are playing an increasingly central role as distributed energy resources in the shift toward power systems dominated by renewable energy sources. However, existing battery models must invariably rely on complementarity constraints to prevent simultaneous charging and discharging, rendering models of a disjunctive nature and NP-hard. In this paper, we analyze the disjunctive structure of the battery's feasible operational set and uncover a submodularity property in its extreme power trajectories. Leveraging this structure, we propose a systematic approach to derive linear valid inequalities that define facets of the convex hull of the battery's feasible operational set, including a distinguished family that generalizes and dominates existing formulations in the literature.
