Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of electrochemical energy storage system testing, specifically to the field of energy storage system function testing, and in particular to a source-load integrated testing device and method for grid-related testing of energy storage systems. Background Art

[0002] At present, new energy storage represented by lithium-ion batteries continues to develop rapidly, with the cumulative installed capacity exceeding 10GW for the first time, reaching 13.1GW / 27.1GWh, with an annual growth rate of 128% in power scale and 141% in energy scale. As electrochemical energy storage systems are continuously connected to the grid, the impact on the power grid has increased dramatically. In order to ensure the orderly flow and safe operation of the power grid, grid connection detection of electrochemical energy storage systems is imperative.

[0003] The grid-connected test items and technical regulations for electrochemical energy storage systems are based on GB / T 36547-2018 "Technical Regulations for Electrochemical Energy Storage Systems Connected to the Grid" and GB / T 36548-2018 "Test Specifications for Electrochemical Energy Storage Systems Connected to the Grid". The two standards specify the technical requirements, test items and methods for the grid-connected test of electrochemical energy storage systems. The unplanned islanding protection function test is an important test item for the grid-connected test of electrochemical energy storage systems. The test results can demonstrate whether electrochemical energy storage can quickly disconnect the circuit breaker connected to the main grid when the grid has high voltage, low voltage, high frequency, low frequency and other faults, to prevent the electrochemical energy storage from matching the load of the user station, forming a small system for self-generation and self-use, and derailing from the main grid. According to the requirements of GB / T36548-2018, the unplanned islanding protection function test of the electrochemical energy storage system requires the coordination of power supply and adjustable RLC load. The existing detection method of the unplanned island protection function of the electrochemical energy storage system requires the coordination of an adjustable RLC load. Since there is no adjustable RLC load in the large-scale electrochemical energy storage system (power station), it is necessary to rent a high-power mobile adjustable RLC load to the site for the test or use another set of energy storage subsystems as an adjustable load. At present, conventional adjustable RLC loads on the market are all gear adjustment, with a control accuracy of about ±2%; therefore, the use of existing detection test methods leads to disadvantages such as long detection time cycle, high detection cost, and poor control accuracy.

For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0034] Example 1 Combined with what was mentioned in the background technology, currently, the grid-connected inspection items and technical regulations for electrochemical energy storage systems are based on GB / T 36547-2018 "Technical Regulations for Electrochemical Energy Storage Systems Connected to the Grid" and GB / T 36548-2018 "Test Specifications for Electrochemical Energy Storage Systems Connected to the Grid". The two standards specify the technical requirements, test items and methods for the grid-connected testing of electrochemical energy storage systems. The unplanned islanding protection function test is an important test item for the grid-connected testing of electrochemical energy storage systems. The test results can demonstrate whether the electrochemical energy storage can quickly disconnect the circuit breaker connected to the main grid when the grid has high voltage, low voltage, high frequency, low frequency and other faults, to prevent the electrochemical energy storage from matching the load of the user station, forming a small system for self-generation and self-use, and derailing from the main grid. According to the requirements of GB / T 36548-2018, the unplanned islanding protection function test of the electrochemical energy storage system requires the coordination of power supply and adjustable RLC load. The test circuit is as follows Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 In the three-phase four-wire energy storage system, L is the phase line and N is the neutral line; in the three-phase three-wire energy storage system, L and N are both phase lines. At present, electrochemical energy storage systems are divided into distributed energy storage and centralized energy storage systems, among which centralized energy storage systems are often large in scale, such as energy storage systems configured in photovoltaic power stations, shared energy storage power stations, etc. For large-scale electrochemical energy storage systems, their minimum energy storage units (consisting of energy storage elements, energy storage converters and related accessories, etc.) are usually MW-level, such as 1.25MW, 1.75MW, 2.5MW, 3.125MW and other specifications. Since large-scale electrochemical energy storage systems (power stations) are mostly located in power generation areas, far away from urban areas, and there are no high-power adjustable RLC loads on site, if the test is carried out on site, it is necessary to rent a high-power mobile RLC load, so the test is relatively complex and the test cost is high.

[0035] The existing detection method for the unplanned islanding protection function of the electrochemical energy storage system is: 1) The energy storage system to be tested and the adjustable RLC load are connected to the public grid (or simulated grid device), such as Figure 1 For a three-phase four-wire energy storage system, Figure 1For phase-to-neutral wiring; for three-phase three-wire energy storage system, Figure 1 For alternate wiring.

[0036] 2) Set the anti-islanding protection setting value of the energy storage system and adjust the discharge power of the energy storage system to the rated power; 3) Set the voltage of the simulated power grid device (public power grid) to the nominal voltage of the energy storage system, and the frequency to the rated frequency of the energy storage system; adjust the load quality factor Q to 1.0±0.05; 4) Close switches S1, S2, and S3 until the energy storage system reaches the specified value in 2); 5) Adjust the load size so that the fundamental current of each phase passing through switch S3 is less than 2% of the steady-state rated current of each phase of the energy storage system; 6) Disconnect S3 and record the time interval from the disconnection of S3 to the energy storage system stopping supplying power to the load, i.e. the disconnection time; 7) Within the range of 95% to 105% of the initial balanced load, adjust the reactive load by 1% (or adjust the reactive power of the energy storage system by 1%). If the disconnection time of the energy storage system increases, it is necessary to increase the reactive load (or reactive power) by 1% until the disconnection time no longer increases. 8) If the disconnection time still increases when the initial balanced load is 95% or 105%, it is necessary to reduce or increase the reactive load by 1% until the disconnection time no longer increases; 9) In the test results, the three test points with the longest disconnection time shall be subjected to two additional repeated tests; when the three longest disconnection times appear at discontinuous 1% load addition values, all test points between the three longest disconnection times shall be subjected to two additional repeated tests; 10) Adjust the energy storage output power to 66% and 33% of the rated power respectively, and repeat steps 3) to 9) respectively.

[0037] When using an energy storage subsystem adjacent to the energy storage subsystem under test as an adjustable load, it is necessary to apply to the dispatcher to repeatedly stop and supply the corresponding energy storage collector line, which causes a long power outage or power supply cycle of the switch cabinet each time, resulting in an extension of the test time. It can be seen that the existing detection method has the disadvantages of long detection time cycle, high detection cost, and poor control accuracy.

[0038] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a source-load integrated test device for grid-related tests of energy storage systems. This test device is used to solve the problem of no adjustable RLC load at the energy storage site in anti-islanding tests. There is no need to rent a mobile adjustable RLC load or use another set of energy storage subsystems as adjustable loads, and there is no need to apply for repeated power outages of energy storage collectors, thereby shortening the test cycle and reducing the test cost.

[0039] In order to facilitate understanding of the technical solution provided by this embodiment, the following technical terms are explained: Electrochemical energy storage system: A system that uses electrochemical batteries as energy storage carriers and stores and releases cyclic electrical energy through energy storage inverters.

[0055] The present embodiment provides a source-load integrated test device for grid-related tests of energy storage systems, which is mainly used in large-scale electrochemical energy storage power stations. The source-load integrated test device consists of a high-voltage switch, an isolation transformer, a power electronic converter and a control system.

[0057] In this embodiment, the high voltage switch ( Figure 2 Specifically, the first high-voltage switch, the second high-voltage switch, and the third high-voltage switch can be switch electronic components such as relays, electronic switches, and mechanical switches. This application does not limit their specific types, and they are all within the protection scope of this application.

Based on the above-mentioned source-load integrated testing device for grid-related testing of an energy storage system, the specific steps are as follows: 1) The energy storage system to be tested and the source-load integrated test device are connected in series to the public power grid (busbar within the station), such as Figure 2 As shown; 2) If voltage adaptability, frequency adaptability, power quality adaptability, high voltage ride-through, low voltage ride-through and interlocking voltage fault ride-through tests are to be conducted: the source-load integrated device is set to work in power supply mode, high-voltage switches S1 and S2 are closed, high-voltage switch S3 is opened, and the output voltage amplitude, frequency and phase of the device are adjusted to simulate various working conditions of the power grid for testing; 3) If an unplanned island protection function test is performed: set the source-load integrated device to work in load mode, close high-voltage switches S3, S1, and S2 in sequence, and connect the source-load integrated device and the energy storage system under test to the output line under switch S3; 4) Set the anti-islanding protection setting of the energy storage system and adjust the discharge power of the energy storage system to 100% of the rated power; 5) Adjust the active power absorbed by the source-load integrated device to the output power of the energy storage system, and the reactive power to 0; 6) Adjust the load size of the source-load integrated device until the fundamental current of each phase passing through switch S3 is less than 2% of the steady-state rated current of each phase of the energy storage system; 7) Disconnect S3 and record the time interval from the disconnection of S3 to the energy storage system stopping supplying power to the source-load integrated device (load), i.e. the disconnection time; 8) Within the range of 95% to 105% of the initial balanced load, adjust the reactive power of the source-load integrated device by 1% (or adjust the reactive power of the energy storage system by 1%). If the disconnection time of the energy storage system increases, it is necessary to increase the reactive load (or reactive power) by 1% until the disconnection time no longer increases; 9) If the disconnection time still increases when the initial balanced load is 95% or 105%, it is necessary to reduce or increase the reactive load or reactive power by 1% until the disconnection time no longer increases; 10) In the test results, the three test points with the longest disconnection time shall be subjected to two additional repeated tests; when the three longest disconnection times appear at discontinuous 1% load addition values, all test points between the three longest disconnection times shall be subjected to two additional repeated tests; 11) Adjust the output power of the energy storage system to 66% and 33% of the rated power respectively, and repeat steps 5) to 10) respectively.

[0059] It can be seen that the key point of the source-load integrated test device and test method for grid-related tests of energy storage systems provided in this embodiment is that, with the cooperation of the high-voltage switch, the source-load integrated test device can be switched to power supply mode (voltage source mode) or load mode (electronic load mode): in power supply mode, the source-load integrated test device serves as a grid simulation source with arbitrarily adjustable amplitude, frequency and phase, and can perform grid-related tests of energy storage power stations and energy storage converters such as voltage adaptability, frequency adaptability, power quality adaptability, high voltage ride-through, low voltage ride-through and interlocking voltage fault ride-through; in load mode, the source-load integrated test device serves as an RLC load with arbitrarily adjustable active power and reactive power, and can perform unplanned islanding protection function tests (anti-islanding tests).

[0060] In summary, the present invention provides a source-load integrated test device for grid-related tests of energy storage systems, which has the following advantages over existing test measures: This integrated source-load test device is mainly aimed at large-scale electrochemical energy storage systems. It switches the working mode according to the test requirements, and when conducting unplanned island protection function tests, it adjusts the size of active and reactive power in real time according to the test conditions to meet the test requirements. The use of this test device can effectively solve the problem of no adjustable RLC load at the energy storage site in the anti-islanding test. There is no need to rent a high-power mobile adjustable RLC load or use another set of energy storage subsystems as an adjustable load, and there is no need to apply for repeated power outages of energy storage collectors. The integrated source-load test device for grid-related tests of energy storage systems provided by the present invention can flexibly switch the working mode, and there is no need to disconnect cables twice during the test and apply for collector switch cabinets ( Figure 2 S4) power outage in the test shortens the test cycle; in load mode, the generated power is fed back to the grid to save energy; unplanned island tests do not require the rental of RLC loads, which reduces test costs, shortens the test cycle, and improves test efficiency.

[0061] The above embodiment is only one of the implementation methods that can realize the technical solution of the present invention. The scope of protection claimed by the present invention is not limited only to this embodiment, but also includes changes, replacements and other implementation methods that can be easily thought of by any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention.
