1. A method comprising:

  • determining a total number of minutes that have elapsed since a reference time;

    computing a product of a number of power resource groups and a time to charge, each power resource group comprising a plurality of power resources, the time to charge specifying a length of time to charge each power resource;

    computing a modulo of the determined total number of minutes divided by the computed product;

    deep-charging power resources of a given power resource group responsive to the computed modulo being inside a range based on a numeric identifier of the given power resource group and the time to charge;

    determining that the given power resource group is within a threshold amount of time from a start or an end of a charging window associated with the given power resource group;

    starting deep-charging of the given power resource group responsive to determining that the given power resource group is at the threshold amount of time from the start of the charging window; and

    ending deep-charging of the given power resource group responsive to determining that the given power resource group is at the threshold amount of time from the end of the charging window.
