Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of electric energy storage, and in particular relates to a high-efficiency vanadium-hydrogen integrated system based on thermal cycle and a control method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Compared with the grid-connected hydrogen production mode, the existing off-grid hydrogen production can improve system efficiency, reduce construction period and dependence on the power grid, but its volatility is difficult to match with the hydrogen production equipment, and an energy storage system needs to be configured to ensure the stability of the hydrogen production power supply.
[0003] All-vanadium liquid flow energy storage is a type of electrochemical energy storage, which has the advantages of large scale, flexible layout, high safety, long charge and discharge cycle life, and low cost per kilowatt-hour in the whole life cycle. Therefore, the all-vanadium liquid flow energy storage station can be used in conjunction with the off-grid hydrogen production system. However, the electrolyte of the all-vanadium liquid flow energy storage system has high requirements for the working temperature. Too high or too low temperature can easily cause the positive and negative electrolytes to crystallize and precipitate. The application of the all-vanadium liquid flow energy storage system in high or low temperature environments is severely restricted by the normal working temperature, and its working temperature is 0-40°C. At present, in engineering applications, when the all-vanadium liquid flow energy storage system is working normally, a set of evaporative refrigeration system is configured to dissipate heat, so that the electrolyte working temperature is reduced to the optimal working temperature range; in the standby or shutdown state in a cold environment, a heating belt is configured to raise the electrolyte temperature to above 0°C. Therefore, the all-vanadium liquid flow energy storage system requires additional energy to maintain the temperature range requirements of the electrolyte, which brings additional energy loss and affects the system operation and standby efficiency. The hydrogen production system is a hot and cold electrical multi-energy flow system. When the electrolyzer is in operation, a lot of heat will be generated, causing the electrolyte to heat up. If the overall temperature of the electrolyzer is too high, it will greatly affect the hydrogen production efficiency. At the same time, its purification system requires additional heat to provide an operating environment. The hydrogen purification system requires additional heat to meet the needs of its hydrogen-oxygen reaction and desiccant regeneration. Therefore, how to combine the topological structure characteristics and heat utilization of the hydrogen production system and the all-vanadium liquid flow energy storage system to achieve the comprehensive utilization of energy and equipment, effectively reduce the energy consumption of the hydrogen storage integrated system, and improve the system operation efficiency requires the invention of an efficient vanadium-hydrogen integrated system based on thermal cycle and its control method.
