The invention discloses a braking energy storage device for a pure electric bus and a working method thereof. The braking energy storage device for the pure electric bus comprises an air compressor, acopper coil tube, a condenser, a dryer, a four loop, a foot operated brake valve, a hand brake valve, a regenerated air reservoir, a front braking air reservoir, an auxiliary air reservoir, a hand braking air reservoir, a rear braking air reservoir and a controller; the air compressor, the copper coil tube, the condenser, the dryer and the regenerated air reservoir are connected with each other in sequence through copper pipes and mutually form a main air source pipeline; the four loop, the front braking air reservoir, the auxiliary air reservoir, the hand braking air reservoir, the rear braking air reservoir, the foot operated brake valve, the hand brake valve and the controller are connected with each other through nylon pipes to form a braking energy supply assembly; and according to the working method, condensation and sewage draining of the pipeline are realized in an electric controlled and temperature controlled manner; and the controller controls the air compressor to start and stop. According to the braking energy storage device for the pure electric bus and the working method thereof, the working efficiency of a braking system is enhanced on the basis of guaranteeing thesafety and reliability of the whole braking system, and the energy utilization efficiency is enhanced.
