1. A method of controlling operation of a metal-air battery, the method comprising:
- controlling a current drawn from the metal-air battery and a temperature of the metal-air battery by controlling a temperature of electrolyte included in the metal-air battery and by controlling a circulation of the electrolyte included in the metal-air battery until the metal-air battery operates according to a profile,wherein the profile defines at least one of;
an energetic utilization ratio, power, an electrolyte utilization value and a corrosion rate.
