Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of charging control technology, and in particular to a charging control method, device, electronic equipment and medium for energy storage equipment. Background Art

[0002] There are many different methods of power generation available today, including nuclear power, photovoltaic power, wind power, hydropower, thermal power, tidal power, ocean power, and hydroelectric power. Due to weather changes, such as heavy rain, typhoons, and natural disasters like grid outages, power system instability can occur in real time, impacting the charging of various energy storage devices. Energy storage devices require a stable voltage environment during the charging and discharging process. Excessive voltage can cause excessive battery charging current, accelerating battery aging and even leading to safety incidents such as battery bulging, leakage, or explosion. Excessively low voltage may prevent the battery from fully charging, affecting the energy storage device's capacity and the energy available for the next discharge. This unstable voltage waveform and unbalanced current, when applied to energy storage devices, can cause abnormal operation and trigger the BMS (Battery Management System) management and protection mechanisms.

[0003] Currently, most common protection mechanisms only provide maximum overcurrent protection, which limits charging when the current approaches or reaches the battery's maximum current (this threshold is generally the maximum threshold defined for the battery at room temperature).

[0004] In unstable power conditions, the charging current can easily exceed the battery's MAP value, posing a threat to battery safety and performance.

It specifies the maximum instantaneous current a battery can safely accept during charging. Summary of the invention

[0030] Embodiment 1

[0031] Figure 1 It is a flowchart of a charging control method of an energy storage device according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to the situation of controlling the charging process of the energy storage device. This method can be executed by a charging control device of the energy storage device. The charging control device of the energy storage device can be implemented in the form of hardware and / or software, and the charging control device of the energy storage device can be configured in the device. For example, the device can be a device with communication and computing capabilities such as a background server. As Figure 1 shown, the method includes:

[0032] S110. Obtain the battery temperature, state of charge, and charging voltage of the energy storage device during the charging process in real-time monitoring as the charging state parameters of the energy storage device.

[0033] In this solution, the energy storage device is a device for storing energy. It can store energy when the energy generation is excessive and release energy when needed to meet the energy requirements in various application scenarios. For example, the energy storage device can be an industrial and commercial energy storage device, a balcony energy storage device, a mobile and portable energy storage device, etc.

[0034] Among them, the battery temperature refers to the temperature reached by the battery during charging; the state of charge (SOC) of the battery represents the remaining power of the battery at present; the charging voltage refers to the voltage applied across the battery when charging the battery of the energy storage device.

[0035] In this embodiment, the battery temperature, the state of charge of the battery, and the charging voltage during the charging process of the energy storage device can be obtained based on the battery management system. Specifically, the battery management system collects the battery temperature, the charging voltage, and other battery-related data during the charging process of the energy storage device in real time through pre-configured sensors, and calculates the state of charge of the battery based on other battery-related data.

[0036] Among them, an intelligent charging device can also be used to obtain the battery temperature, the state of charge of the battery, and the charging voltage during the charging process of the energy storage device. The intelligent charging device itself has a monitoring function and can collect information such as the charging voltage and charging current of the battery in real time during the charging process, and estimate the battery temperature and the state of charge of the battery through built-in algorithms.

[0037] S120. Determine a target charging threshold adapted to the current charging state of the energy storage device according to the charging state parameter; wherein, the target charging threshold is less than a preset candidate charging threshold; the candidate charging threshold is a protection threshold set during the charging process of the energy storage device.

[0038] In this solution, the candidate charging threshold is the maximum overcurrent protection threshold or the maximum power threshold set during the charging process of the energy storage device.

[0039] Among them, the target charging threshold is a charging limit boundary threshold set during the charging process of the energy storage device, and the target charging threshold is less than the candidate charging threshold. The target charging threshold can be a charging limit current protection value or a charging limit power protection value.

[0040] In this embodiment, a target charging threshold adapted to the current charging state of the energy storage device can be selected from the pre-determined charging thresholds based on the battery temperature, the state of charge of the battery, and the charging voltage.

[0041] In this solution, the battery temperature, the state of charge of the battery, and the charging voltage can also be predicted based on a pre-established battery model to determine a target charging threshold adapted to the current charging state of the energy storage device. Among them, a battery model that can accurately describe the battery charging characteristics, such as an equivalent circuit model, an electrochemical model, etc., can be established through experiments and data analysis.

[0042] Specifically, the battery temperature, the state of charge of the battery, and the charging voltage can also be used as input parameters to be fuzzified and converted into fuzzy language variables. According to the rules in the fuzzy rule base, fuzzy inference is performed to obtain the fuzzy output of the target charging threshold adapted to the current charging state. Finally, through defuzzification operation, the fuzzy output is converted into a specific value.

[0043] S130. Control the charging process of the energy storage device according to the target charging threshold.

[0044] In this embodiment, when the charging current is less than or equal to the target charging threshold, the energy storage device is charged; or, when the charging power corresponding to the charging current is less than or equal to the target charging threshold, the energy storage device is charged.

[0045] In this solution, during the charging process of the energy storage device, precise control is implemented based on the target charging threshold, which can effectively cope with abnormal impact currents generated in complex scenarios such as unstable power systems, sudden access of additional charging power sources, and sudden disconnection of loads. At the same time, it can also avoid the occurrence of impact currents in the energy storage device in extreme high and low temperature environments, thereby achieving effective interception of abnormal charging and ensuring the safety and stability of the charging process of the energy storage device.

[0046] Further, when the battery temperature is less than the preset first temperature, the charging operation of the energy storage device is not performed; when the battery temperature is greater than the preset second temperature, the charging operation of the energy storage device is also not performed. Wherein, the first temperature is less than the second temperature, and the first temperature and the second temperature can be set based on the performance of the battery of the energy storage device. For example, the first temperature can be set to 0°C, and the second temperature can be set to 55°C.

[0047] Optionally, controlling the charging process of the energy storage device according to the target charging threshold includes:

[0048] During the charging process of the energy storage device, the charging current signal is monitored in real time;

[0049] If the charging current signal is an abnormal current signal, the charging process of the energy storage device is controlled according to the target charging threshold; wherein, the abnormal current signal is a signal exceeding the first charging current range; the first charging current range is determined according to the candidate charging threshold;

[0050] During the process of controlling the charging process of the energy storage device according to the target charging threshold, if the charging current signal is a normal current signal, the charging process of the energy storage device is controlled according to the candidate charging threshold; wherein, the normal current signal is a signal within the second charging current range; the second charging current range is determined according to the target charging threshold; the upper limit of the second charging current range is less than the lower limit of the first charging current range.

[0051] In this embodiment, the abnormal current signal refers to a signal in which at least one of the amplitude range, frequency characteristics, phase relationship, and time characteristics of the current change exceeds the first charging current range. Among them, the first charging current range is set according to the candidate charging threshold. In this solution, the normal current signal refers to a signal in which the amplitude range, frequency characteristics, phase relationship, and time characteristics of the current change are within the second charging current range. Among them, the second charging current range is set according to the target charging threshold. The upper limit of the second charging current range is less than the lower limit of the first charging current range.

[0052] In this solution, there is usually a multiple-level difference between the candidate charging threshold and the MAP value of the battery in low-temperature and high-temperature environments. Therefore, during the charging of the energy storage device, the target charging threshold and the candidate charging threshold are set simultaneously to control the charging process, so as to ensure that the current during the charging process is always within the MAP value range of the battery. Among them, the target charging threshold belongs to the charging limit boundary protection logic mechanism under high SOP (Standard Operating Procedure). Once an abnormal current signal is detected, the system will give priority to executing the target charging threshold, rather than cutting off the circuit until the candidate charging threshold is triggered.

[0053] Specifically, the charging current signal during the charging process of the energy storage device can be monitored in real time based on the current signal sensor. When the charging current signal is a signal exceeding the first charging current range, the charging process of the energy storage device is controlled according to the target charging threshold; when the charging current signal is a signal within the second charging current range, the charging process of the energy storage device is controlled according to the candidate charging threshold.

[0054] In this solution, Figure 2 is the flowchart of the charging control method provided in the first embodiment of this application. As Figure 2 shown, the battery management system is responsible for reading the battery temperature, state of charge of the battery, and charging voltage, and determining the target charging threshold based on the battery temperature, state of charge of the battery, and charging voltage. Subsequently, the charging control is started according to the target charging threshold. During the charging process of the energy storage device, the system will continuously monitor the charging current signal. Once an abnormal current signal is detected, the system will continue to perform charging control according to the target charging threshold; when the abnormal current signal disappears, the system will resume charging control according to the candidate charging threshold based on the battery temperature, state of charge of the battery, and charging voltage. If no abnormal current signal is detected, the system will always use the candidate charging threshold for charging control. Among them, when the abnormal current signal disappears, if the battery temperature, state of charge of the battery, and charging voltage are within the preset abnormal range, the control will continue according to the target charging threshold.

[0055] The technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention obtains the battery temperature, state of charge, and charging voltage of the energy storage device during the charging process in real time, determines the target charging threshold adapted to the current charging state of the energy storage device based on the battery temperature, state of charge, and charging voltage during the charging process, and then controls the charging process of the energy storage device according to the target charging threshold. By implementing this technical solution, under any charging conditions, the boundary current of the energy storage device charging can be effectively controlled within the maximum allowable charging current values at different temperatures, maximizing the avoidance of the safety and performance risks of the energy storage device, ensuring the stable charging of the energy storage device, and prolonging the service life of the energy storage device.

[0056] Embodiment 2

[0057] Figure 3 It is a schematic diagram of the charging control process of an energy storage device provided in Embodiment 2 of the present invention. The relationship between this embodiment and the above embodiment is a detailed description of the target charging threshold determination process. As Figure 3 shown, the method includes:

[0058] S310. Obtain the battery temperature, state of charge, and charging voltage of the energy storage device during the charging process in real time as the charging state parameters of the energy storage device.

[0059] S320. Determine the target temperature range where the battery temperature is located, the target state of charge range where the state of charge of the battery is located, and the target voltage range where the charging voltage is located.

[0060] In this solution, the temperature range, state of charge range, and voltage range are pre-set according to the charging control requirements of the energy storage device. For example, the temperature range can be set as [0°C - 10°C], (10°C - 20°C], (20°C - 45°C], (45°C - 55°C]. The state of charge range can be set as [0 - 60%], (60% - 100%]; it can also be set as [0 - 75%], (75% - 98%], (98% - 100%]. The voltage range can be set as [0 - 3.4], (3.4 - 3.6].

[0061] Furthermore, after obtaining the battery temperature, state of charge, and charging voltage, the battery management system will compare the battery temperature with the pre-configured temperature ranges one by one to determine the target temperature range where the battery temperature is located; match the state of charge of the battery with the pre-configured state of charge ranges to determine the target state of charge range corresponding to the state of charge of the battery; compare the charging voltage with the pre-configured voltage ranges to determine the target voltage range where the charging voltage is located.

[0062] S330. Determine a target charging threshold adapted to the current charging state of the energy storage device based on the target temperature range in which the battery temperature is located, the target state of charge range in which the battery state of charge is located, and the target voltage range in which the charging voltage is located.

[0063] In this solution, based on the target temperature range in which the battery temperature is located, the target state of charge range in which the battery state of charge is located, and the target voltage range in which the charging voltage is located, a target charging threshold adapted to the current charging state of the energy storage device can be determined from a pre-determined stepped charging strategy mapping relationship table. The temperature range, state of charge range, and voltage range in the stepped charging strategy mapping relationship table correspond to each other one by one.

[0064] Further, it is also possible to first determine the target temperature range in which the battery temperature is located, and then based on the stepped charging strategy mapping relationship table corresponding to the target temperature range, determine a target charging threshold adapted to the current charging state of the energy storage device based on the target state of charge range in which the battery state of charge is located and the target voltage range in which the charging voltage is located. The state of charge range and voltage range in the stepped charging strategy mapping relationship table corresponding to the target temperature range correspond to each other one by one.

[0065] In this embodiment, it is also possible to first determine the target state of charge range in which the battery state of charge is located, and then based on the stepped charging strategy mapping relationship table corresponding to the target state of charge range, determine a target charging threshold adapted to the current charging state of the energy storage device based on the target temperature range in which the battery temperature is located and the target voltage range in which the charging voltage is located. The temperature range and voltage range in the stepped charging strategy mapping relationship table corresponding to the target state of charge range correspond to each other one by one.

[0066] Among them, it is also possible to first determine the target voltage range in which the charging voltage is located, and then based on the stepped charging strategy mapping relationship table corresponding to the target voltage range, determine a target charging threshold adapted to the current charging state of the energy storage device based on the target temperature range in which the battery temperature is located and the target state of charge range in which the battery state of charge is located. The state of charge range and temperature range in the stepped charging strategy mapping relationship table corresponding to the target voltage range correspond to each other one by one.

[0067] S340. Control the charging process of the energy storage device according to the target charging threshold.

[0069] Embodiment III

[0070] Figure 4 FIG. is a flowchart of a charging control process of another energy storage device provided in Embodiment III of the present invention. The relationship between this embodiment and the above embodiment is a detailed description of the process of determining the target charging threshold. As Figure 4 shown, the method includes:

[0071] S410. Obtain the battery temperature, the state of charge of the battery, and the charging voltage during the charging process of the energy storage device in real time as the charging state parameters of the energy storage device.

[0072] S420. Determine the target temperature range in which the battery temperature is located, the target state of charge range in which the state of charge of the battery is located, and the target voltage range in which the charging voltage is located.

[0073] S430. In each control stage corresponding to the target temperature range, determine a target charging threshold adapted to the current charging state of the energy storage device according to the target state of charge range in which the state of charge of the battery is located and the target voltage range in which the charging voltage is located; wherein, each control stage includes a corresponding state of charge range and voltage range; the control stage is obtained by dividing the charging process of the energy storage device, and in the dividing process, the control stages are sequentially assigned ascending identification numbers from small to large according to the ascending order of the charging process from small to large.

[0074] In this solution, the control stage is obtained by dividing the charging process of the energy storage device, and in the dividing process, the control stages are sequentially assigned ascending identification numbers from small to large according to the ascending order of the charging process from small to large. For example, the control stage can be represented by control stage 1, control stage 2, and control stage 3.

[0075] In this embodiment, the correspondence between the temperature range and the control stage has been pre-planned and determined. The number of settings for each control stage in different temperature ranges can be the same or different. For example, assume there are temperature range 1 and temperature range 2. The control stages corresponding to temperature range 1 can include control stage 1 and control stage 2; or it can include control stage 1, control stage 2, and control stage 3. Similarly, the control stages corresponding to temperature range 2 can include control stage 1 and control stage 2; or it can include control stage 1, control stage 2, and control stage 3.

[0076] Among them, each control stage includes a corresponding battery state of charge range and voltage range. For example, taking the control stage corresponding to temperature range 1 as an example, this control stage covers control stage 1 and control stage 2. Among them, within control stage 1, there is a one-to-one correspondence between the battery state of charge range and the voltage range; similarly, within control stage 2, there is also a one-to-one correspondence between the battery state of charge range and the voltage range.

[0079]

[0080] Further, first determine the target temperature range in which the battery temperature is located, and then in each control stage corresponding to the target temperature range, respectively find the target state of charge range in which the state of charge of the battery is located and the target voltage range in which the charging voltage is located, and then determine the target charging threshold adapted to the current charging state of the energy storage device based on the target state of charge range in which the state of charge of the battery is located and the target voltage range in which the charging voltage is located.

[0081] Optionally, determining the target charging threshold adapted to the current charging state of the energy storage device according to the target state of charge range in which the state of charge of the battery is located and the target voltage range in which the charging voltage is located includes:

[0082] When the control stage corresponding to the target state of charge range and the control stage corresponding to the target voltage range are the same stage, determine the charging threshold matching the control stage as the target charging threshold adapted to the current charging state of the energy storage device;

[0083] When the control phase corresponding to the target state of charge range and the control phase corresponding to the target voltage range are different phases, select the control phase with the largest identification serial number from the control phase corresponding to the target state of charge range and the control phase corresponding to the target voltage range as the target control phase, and determine the charging threshold matching the target control phase as the target charging threshold adapted to the current charging state of the energy storage device.

[0084] Among them, the charging threshold is the charging limit boundary threshold set during the charging process of the energy storage device. The matching relationship between the control phase and the charging threshold has been determined in advance. As shown in Table 1, the temperature range 1 is (T1 - T2], and the control phases corresponding to the temperature range 1 include control phase 1 and control phase 2. The charging threshold matched by control phase 1 is I1 or P1; the charging threshold matched by control phase 2 is I2 or P2. The temperature range 2 is (T2 - T3], and the control phases corresponding to the temperature range 2 include control phase 1, control phase 2, and control phase 3.

The temperature range 4 is (T1 - T2], and the control phase corresponding to the temperature range 4 includes control phase 1. The charging threshold matched by control phase 1 is I 10 or P 10 .

[0085] In this solution, when the control phase corresponding to the target state of charge range and the control phase corresponding to the target voltage range are the same phase, look up in the stepped charging strategy mapping relationship table to determine the charging threshold matching the control phase, and use this threshold as the target charging threshold adapted to the current charging state of the energy storage device.

[0086] In this solution, during the charging process, when either the state of charge of the battery or the charging voltage reaches the preset specified value first, the corresponding target charging threshold will be immediately activated, so as to always control the battery charging process within the safe boundary and ensure charging safety.

[0087] Specifically, when the control phase corresponding to the target state of charge range of the battery and the control phase corresponding to the target voltage range are different phases, select the control phase with the largest identification number from the control phase corresponding to the target state of charge range of the battery and the control phase corresponding to the target voltage range as the target control phase, search in the stepped charging strategy mapping relationship table to determine the charging threshold that matches the target control phase, and use this charging threshold as the target charging threshold adapted to the current charging state of the energy storage device.

[0088] In this embodiment, during the charging process of the energy storage device, if the target state of charge range in which the state of charge of the battery is located and / or the target voltage range in which the charging voltage is located change, determine the newly changed target state of charge range of the battery and / or target voltage range, and determine the newly changed target charging threshold based on the newly changed target state of charge range of the battery and / or target voltage range.

[0089] In this solution, during the charging process of the energy storage device, if the target temperature range in which the battery temperature is located changes, determine the newly changed target temperature range. Within each control phase corresponding to the newly changed target temperature range, determine the target charging threshold adapted to the current charging state of the energy storage device according to the target state of charge range in which the state of charge of the battery is located and the target voltage range in which the charging voltage is located.

[0090] By real-time monitoring of the battery temperature, state of charge, and charging voltage, the charging state of the battery can be accurately grasped. The battery management system will intelligently regulate and only input current within a safe range to the battery, greatly optimizing the battery boundary limit protection mechanism. The precise control of the target charging threshold effectively prevents the problem of excessive decomposition of the electrolyte caused by too large current, and effectively guarantees the safety and life of the battery. And it can ensure that the battery always maintains stable performance during the charging process, avoiding negative impacts on the battery performance caused by current fluctuations. Especially in complex situations such as unstable power systems, or sudden access to additional charging power sources, sudden disconnection of loads resulting in current surges, etc., reasonable current limitation can fully play its role to ensure the stable operation of the battery and provide a solid guarantee for user safety.

[0095] The charging threshold corresponding to the first temperature range is less than the charging threshold corresponding to the second temperature range; the charging threshold corresponding to the third temperature range is less than the charging threshold corresponding to the second temperature.

[0096] Among them, lithium-ion batteries include batteries such as ternary batteries, lithium iron phosphate batteries, lithium manganese iron phosphate batteries, and sodium batteries.

[0097] In this solution, as shown in Table 2. When the energy storage device is a lithium-ion battery, according to the requirements of the energy storage power supply and the battery performance characteristics, a reasonable stepped charging strategy is formulated, and the battery charging is controlled based on the stepped charging strategy. Among them, the relationship between the charging threshold and the battery temperature is a non-linear inverted U-shaped relationship.

[0098] Specifically, assuming that the target temperature range in which the battery temperature is located includes a first temperature range, a second temperature range, and a third temperature range; the upper limit of the first temperature range is less than the lower limit of the second temperature range; the upper limit of the second temperature range is less than the lower limit of the third temperature range; then the charging threshold corresponding to the first temperature range is less than the charging threshold corresponding to the second temperature range; the charging threshold corresponding to the third temperature range is less than the charging threshold corresponding to the second temperature.

[0107] In this solution, the control stage is obtained by dividing the charging process of the energy storage device. During the division process, the control stages are sequentially assigned ascending identification numbers from small to large according to the ascending order rule of the charging process from small to large. For example, the control stage can be represented by control stage 1, control stage 2, and control stage 3.

[0118] Embodiment Five

[0119] Figure 6 It is a flowchart of another charging control method for an energy storage device provided in Embodiment Five of the present invention. The relationship between this embodiment and the above embodiment is a detailed description of the charging threshold determination process. As Figure 6 shown, the method includes:

[0120] S610. For each control stage, obtain each battery temperature within the temperature range, each state of charge of the battery within the state-of-charge range, and each charging voltage within the voltage range.

[0121] In this solution, the control stage is obtained by dividing the charging process of the energy storage device. Each control stage corresponds to a temperature range, a state-of-charge range, and a voltage range respectively.

[0122] In this solution, for each control stage, each battery temperature within the temperature range, each state of charge of the battery within the state-of-charge range, and each charging voltage within the voltage range can be obtained based on the battery management system.

[0123] S620. Take the preset charging current as the independent variable, and take each battery temperature within the temperature range, each state of charge of the battery within the state-of-charge range, and each charging voltage within the voltage range as the dependent variables, and construct an objective function.

[0124] Wherein, the charging current refers to the charging current of the energy storage device.

[0125] In this embodiment, during the charging process of the energy storage device, the magnitude of the charging current affects the heat generated by the battery during charging, thereby changing the battery temperature; the magnitude of the charging current affects the charging speed of the battery, and further affects the change in the state of charge of the battery within a certain period of time; there is a certain relationship between the charging current and the voltage across the battery, and the change in the charging current causes a change in the charging voltage. That is, the magnitude of the charging current affects the battery temperature, the state of charge of the battery, and the charging voltage. Therefore, the charging current is used as the independent variable, and each battery temperature within the temperature range, each state of charge of the battery within the state-of-charge range, and each charging voltage within the voltage range are used as the dependent variables to construct an objective function.

[0126] Among them, the objective function is an expression that describes the mathematical relationship between the charging current and the battery temperature, the state of charge of the battery, and the charging voltage. Through the objective function, the changes in the battery temperature, the state of charge of the battery, and the charging voltage under different charging currents can be predicted. Similarly, the magnitude of the charging current can be predicted based on the magnitudes of the battery temperature, the state of charge of the battery, and the charging voltage.

[0127] Exemplarily, it is assumed that there is the following relationship between the battery temperature T, the state of charge of the battery SOC, the charging voltage V, and the charging current I:

[0128] Battery temperature: T(I)=a1·I + b1, where a1 and b1 are constants determined according to the battery characteristics. For example, a1 = 0.5 (unit: °C / A), b1 = 20 (unit: °C), indicating that for every 1 A increase in the charging current, the battery temperature rises by 0.5 °C, and when the charging current is 0, the initial battery temperature is 20 °C.

[0129] State of charge of the battery: SOC(I)=a2·I + b2, where a2 = 0.1 (unit: % / A), b1 = 20 (unit: %), that is, for every 1 A increase in the charging current, the state of charge of the battery rises by 0.1% per minute, and the initial state of charge of the battery is 20%.

[0130] Charging voltage: V(I)=a3·I + b3, where a3 = 0.2 (unit: V / A), b3 = 3.0 (unit: V), indicating that for every 1 A increase in the charging current, the charging voltage rises by 0.2 V, and the initial charging voltage is 3.0 V.

[0131] Then an objective function F can be constructed to combine these three dependent variables: F(I)=(T(I), SOC(I), V(I))=(a1·I + b1, a2·I + b2, a3·I + b3).

[0132] S630. Based on the objective function, determine the charging threshold that matches the control phase.

[0133] In this solution, through the objective function, the target charging current can be predicted based on the battery temperature, the state of charge of the battery, and the charging voltage, and the charging threshold matching the control stage can be determined according to the target charging current.

[0134] Specifically, a simulation model of the charging system is established using computer software, different charging currents are set in the simulation model for simulation operation, and the simulation results are analyzed to determine the target charging current that optimizes the objective function.

[0135] In this embodiment, the charging current is encoded as a chromosome, and by simulating operations such as selection, crossover, and mutation in the biological genetic process, the target charging current that optimizes the objective function is searched in the solution space.

[0136] Among them, the target charging current can be used as the charging threshold matching the control stage; alternatively, the target charging power can be calculated based on the target charging current, and the target charging power can be used as the charging threshold matching the control stage.

[0137] Optionally, determining the charging threshold matching the control stage based on the objective function includes:

[0138] Based on the objective function, determining a first target charging current corresponding to when the battery temperature reaches a preset target temperature threshold, a second target charging current corresponding to when the state of charge of the battery reaches a preset target state of charge threshold, and a third target charging current corresponding to when the charging voltage reaches a preset target charging voltage threshold;

[0139] Determining the charging threshold matching the control stage according to the smallest target charging current among the first target charging current, the second target charging current, and the third target charging current; or,

[0140] Determining the charging threshold matching the control stage according to the weighted average of the first target charging current, the second target charging current, and the third target charging current.

[0141] Among them, the target temperature threshold, the target state of charge threshold, and the target charging voltage threshold can be set according to the charging control requirements of the energy storage device.

[0142] In this embodiment, the first target charging current is the maximum target charging current among the target charging currents corresponding to when the battery temperature reaches the preset target temperature threshold; the second target charging current is the maximum target charging current among the target charging currents corresponding to when the state of charge of the battery reaches the preset target state of charge threshold; the third target charging current is the maximum target charging current among the target charging currents corresponding to when the charging voltage reaches the preset target charging voltage threshold.

[0143] In this solution, based on the objective function, the first target charging current is determined according to each battery temperature, the second target charging current is determined according to each state of charge of the battery, and the third target charging current is determined according to each charging voltage.

[0144] Furthermore, the minimum target charging current can be selected from the first target charging current, the second target charging current, and the third target charging current, and the charging threshold matching the control stage is determined based on the minimum target charging current.

[0145] In this solution, the first target charging current, the second target charging current, and the third target charging current can also be weighted and averaged to determine the target charging current, and the charging threshold matching the control stage is determined based on the target charging current. Among them, the weights can be set according to the influence of battery temperature, state of charge of the battery, and charging voltage on the charging process of the energy storage device.

[0146] By determining the charging threshold matching the control stage through battery temperature, state of charge of the battery, and charging voltage, and only inputting current within the safe range to the battery, the battery boundary limit protection mechanism is greatly optimized. The attenuation of the battery capacity of the energy storage device is delayed, the safety and performance risks of the energy storage device are avoided to the greatest extent, the stable charging of the energy storage device can be ensured, and the service life of the energy storage device is extended.

[0147] In this solution, for each control stage, after determining the charging threshold matching the control stage, a stepped charging strategy mapping relationship table is constructed based on the temperature range, state of charge range of the battery, voltage range, and charging threshold. And the stepped charging strategy mapping relationship table is stored in the battery management system. Optionally, the stepped charging strategy mapping relationship table is shown in Table 1.

[0148] The technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention constructs an objective function by using the preset charging current as the independent variable and each battery temperature within the temperature range, each state of charge of the battery within the state of charge range of the battery, and each charging voltage within the voltage range as the dependent variables, and then determines the charging threshold matching the control stage based on the objective function. By implementing this technical solution, the charging threshold matching the control stage is determined through battery temperature, state of charge of the battery, and charging voltage, and only current within the safe range is input to the battery, greatly optimizing the battery boundary limit protection mechanism. The attenuation of the battery capacity of the energy storage device is delayed, the safety and performance risks of the energy storage device are avoided to the greatest extent, the stable charging of the energy storage device can be ensured, and the service life of the energy storage device is extended.
