1. A method for adapting control in an energy system which is at least partially powered by electricity, wherein said energy system comprises an energy storage system capable of storing electric energy, an energy consumption system capable of consuming, at least partially, the electric energy stored in said energy storage system, and an energy management system comprising instructions for managing said energy storage system and said energy consumption system, said method comprising:

  • gathering data, in real time, relating to at least one of said energy storage system and said energy consumption system, wherein said gathered data comprises temperature of at least one of said energy storage system and said energy consumption system in combination with at least one of voltage of said energy storage system, water level in said energy storage system, current of said energy storage system, power of said energy storage system, deviation of said energy storage system, energy of said energy storage system, and impedance of said energy storage system;

    computing at least a parameter based on the gathered data, wherein the parameter is associated with said energy storage system, wherein the parameter is related to at least one condition of the energy system;

    comparing the at least one parameter with at least corresponding reference data;

    determining by the energy management system, a deviation of the parameter from the reference data, based on the comparison, wherein the determined deviation is sent to a data processing system at a remote location, further wherein the data processing system is capable of sending commands to at least one of a plurality of subsystems of the energy system from the remote location;

    generating at least one of a charge pattern, a temperature pattern, a capacity pattern, a state of health pattern, in real time, from the gathered data, wherein said pattern is compared to at least historical data, so as to identify a pattern developed using historical data, the identified pattern being similar to the pattern of the energy storage system;

    determining whether modification of the instructions in the energy management system is required based on said pattern, wherein said determination is based on said pattern and user'"'"'s preference on performance of said energy system; and

    modifying the instructions in said energy management system if said modification of the instructions in said energy management system is required.
