A battery bank needs to store at least 1500 Wh of energy at 24 V outside where the ambient air temperature is -10° C. You have access to lead acid batteries that have a nominal capacity of 25 Ah at 6 V at 25° C. What is the minimum number of batteries required to meet this load requirement? Draw a schematic of the battery configuration.
