This application discloses a control method and related apparatus for a charging and discharging
system, relating to the technical field of
new energy vehicles. The charging and discharging
system includes a charging
pile circuit and an on-board charger. The charging
pile circuit is used to connect to an external
power grid, and the on-board charger is used to connect to a battery. The control method includes: when the on-board charger and the charging
pile circuit are electrically connected, determining a target operating mode; if the
current mode is determined to be AC charging, controlling the charging pile circuit to draw power from the external
power grid and transmit
AC power to the on-board charger, so that the on-board charger converts the received
AC power into DC power according to a drive
signal and outputs it to the battery; if the
current mode is determined to be DC discharging, controlling the on-board charger to be in a direct-on state, so that the DC
power output from the battery is output to the charging pile circuit via the on-board charger, and then controlling the charging pile circuit to transmit the received DC power to the external
power grid. This application can reduce the
discharge load on the power grid during peak
electricity consumption periods.
