[0074] This application provides a test method for grid-connected energy storage battery systems, which can be executed by a test system for grid-connected energy storage battery systems. Figure 1 As shown, the test system may include an energy storage converter compartment and a battery system under test. The battery system under test is connected to the power grid via the energy storage converter compartment. Specifically, using... Figure 1 As shown in the example, the power grid includes a first power grid and a second power grid, where the first power grid is the household power grid and the second power grid is the plant power grid. An inter-grid transformer 11 connects the first and second power grids. The energy storage converter compartment is connected to the busbar of the second power grid. Multiple loads are also connected to the busbar of the second power grid.

[0075] The testing system may also include an auxiliary battery system. This auxiliary battery system is connected to the energy storage converter compartment, and its main function is to provide power support for the testing system. When the testing system is undergoing charging tests and the total load is large, it provides some power to the energy storage converter compartment to prevent overloading of the grid. When the testing system is undergoing discharging tests and the total load is small, it absorbs excess power from the energy storage converter compartment to prevent excess power from being fed back into the grid.

[0076] Figures 2 to 4 An energy storage converter 100 according to this application is shown. The energy storage converter 100 is equipped with meters for collecting various electrical quantities. Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the energy storage converter compartment 100 includes an electrical room 110, a transformer room 120, and a high-voltage room 130.

[0077] The electrical room 110 contains at least three power converters 111 connected in parallel, with the DC side of each power converter 111 connected to the energy storage battery system 20. The transformer room 120 contains a transformer 121, with its low-voltage side connected to the AC side of the power converters 111. The high-voltage room 130 contains an integrated incoming / outgoing line cabinet 131, which has a first connecting cable 136 and a second connecting cable 138. The first connecting cable 136 connects to the high-voltage side of the transformer 121, and the second connecting cable 138 connects to the power grid 10. The power converters 111 can be PCS (Power Conversion System).

[0078] In a preferred embodiment, a first connecting cable 136 is connected from a cable inlet 137, which is located on the bottom side of the integrated incoming and outgoing line cabinet 131. A second connecting cable 138 is led out from a cable outlet 139, which is also located on the bottom side of the integrated incoming and outgoing line cabinet 131.

[0079] According to the energy storage converter compartment 100 of this application, an integrated inlet / outlet cabinet 131 is provided, which saves space in the high-voltage room 130 and makes it easy to integrate various devices into the container.

[0080] Preferably, the integrated incoming and outgoing line cabinet 131 also includes a current transformer 133, a voltage transformer 134, an AC meter 132, a vacuum circuit breaker 135, and a relay protection device. This further improves integration, saving space in the high-voltage room 130 while fulfilling the functions of main circuit grid connection and disconnection control, line protection, and energy metering, thus providing space for the installation of three or more power converters 111. Figure 4 An exemplary internal structural arrangement of an integrated incoming and outgoing line cabinet 131 is shown.

[0081] In a preferred embodiment, the high-voltage chamber 130 and the electrical chamber 110 are located at opposite ends of the container, and the transformer chamber 120 is located between the high-voltage chamber 130 and the electrical chamber 110. The volume of the high-voltage chamber 130 is smaller than the volume of the electrical chamber 110. Preferably, the volume of the high-voltage chamber 130 is smaller than the volume of the transformer chamber 120. More preferably, the volume of the transformer chamber 120 is smaller than the volume of the electrical chamber 110.

[0082] Continue to refer to Figure 2 The electrical room 110 is also equipped with a DC combiner cabinet 112, an AC combiner cabinet 113, and a system control cabinet 114. The DC combiner cabinet 112 is connected between the energy storage battery system 20 and the power converter 111, and the AC combiner cabinet 113 is connected between the AC side of the power converter 111 and the low-voltage side of the transformer 121.

[0083] A first meter is installed in the DC combiner cabinet 112. This allows the first meter to measure the DC power input and output of the energy storage battery system 20. A second meter is installed in the AC combiner cabinet 113. This allows the second meter to measure the AC power input and output of the power converter 111.

[0084] The system control cabinet 114 is connected to the DC combiner cabinet 112, AC combiner cabinet 113, power converter 111, transformer 121, and integrated incoming and outgoing line cabinet 131. Furthermore, the system control cabinet 114 is equipped with a third meter. This allows the third meter to measure the amount of electricity generated by the auxiliary battery system (which serves as a secondary power source) during the charging and discharging process of the energy storage battery system 20.

[0085] In a preferred embodiment, the AC combiner cabinet 113 has at least three independent disconnect switches corresponding to at least three power converters 111, and each of the at least three disconnect switches is connected to at least three power converters 111. This allows any one power converter to be disconnected from the DC circuit, improving the safety of wiring and maintenance of the power converters. Furthermore, the parallel connection of at least three power converters 111 can be automatically adjusted according to test conditions to meet the charging and discharging capacity requirements of the energy storage battery.

[0086] To facilitate the maintenance and repair of the equipment in the electrical room 110, transformer room 120 and high-voltage room 130, hatches 102 are provided on the side walls of the container corresponding to the positions of the electrical room 110, transformer room 120 and high-voltage room 130 to allow personnel to enter and exit.

[0087] Please refer to the following. Figure 2At least one first heat exchanger 103 is provided on the top or side of the DC combiner cabinet 112, at least one first heat exchanger 103 is provided on the top or side of the AC combiner cabinet 113, and at least one first heat exchanger 103 is provided on the top or side of the system control cabinet 114.

[0088] At least one second heat exchanger 104 is installed on the bulkhead of the electrical room 110, at least one second heat exchanger 104 is installed on the bulkhead of the transformer room 120, and at least one second heat exchanger 104 is installed on the bulkhead of the high-pressure room 130. For example, in the illustrated embodiment, two second heat exchangers 104 are installed on the bulkhead of the electrical room 110, and two second heat exchangers 104 are installed on the bulkhead of the transformer room 120. The system control cabinet 114 is signal-connected to both the first heat exchanger 103 and the second heat exchanger 104.

[0089] The second heat exchanger 104 is disposed on the side wall of the container, and / or the second heat exchanger 104 is disposed on the hatch 102. Exemplarily, in the embodiment shown in the figure, the second heat exchanger 104 is disposed on the side wall.

[0090] Optionally, the DC combiner cabinet 112, AC combiner cabinet 113, system control cabinet 114, and integrated incoming / outgoing line cabinet 131 are each equipped with at least one temperature detector 105. The transformer 121 is equipped with at least one temperature detector 105. At least one temperature detector 105 is also installed in both the electrical room 110 and the transformer room 120. The system control cabinet 114 is signal-connected to the temperature detector 105. For example, the transformer 121 may be equipped with two temperature detectors 105, and both the electrical room 110 and the transformer room 120 may each be equipped with two temperature detectors 105.

[0091] For example, two temperature detectors 105 inside the transformer chamber 120 are disposed at the chamber wall 101. Two temperature detectors 105 in the electrical room 110 are disposed at the chamber wall 101 and the bulkhead between the transformer chamber 120 and the electrical room 110, respectively.

[0092] Once the upper limit threshold temperature for heat dissipation is reached, the control system issues a command to activate the heat exchangers in the equipment compartments requiring heat dissipation, ensuring the safe and stable operation of the converter chamber. Thus, by equipping the converter chamber with an automatic thermal management control system, the temperature of each piece of equipment is individually controlled, addressing the different cooling needs of different devices. This prevents overheating of components such as the PCS, transformer 121, and high-voltage cabinet from reducing battery system testing efficiency and increasing system operational risks, thereby extending the lifespan of the equipment.

[0093] The testing system can have two modes: charging test mode and discharging test mode. Charging test mode performs charging tests, and discharging test mode performs discharging tests. A start button can be set to switch the testing system between these two modes. Before conducting charge / discharge tests, the testing system can be set to either charging or discharging test mode as needed.

[0094] like Figures 5 to 6 As shown, the testing method of this application includes the following steps:

[0095] S1: Determination of charging time ti

[0096] Determine whether the charging time ti of the test system is within the preset time period MP. If it is, charge or discharge the battery system under test. If not, the test system is in a waiting state.

[0097] In charging test mode, the preset time period (MP) includes at least off-peak load periods and / or off-peak electricity price periods. This avoids peak electricity consumption times, preventing overall power overload; and allows charging during off-peak hours, reducing charging costs.

[0098] In discharge test mode, the preset time period MP includes at least the peak load period and / or peak electricity price period. This avoids the danger of backflow into the grid and allows discharge during peak electricity price periods, reducing electricity costs.

[0099] S2: Initial determination of the SOC (State of charge) of the battery system under test

[0100] Determine if the SOC of the battery system under test is the initial preset value. If it is, charge or discharge the battery system under test. If not, the test system is in a waiting state.

[0101] In charging test mode, the initial preset value is 0% to 5%. Furthermore, for the battery system under test to be charged, its SOC should be sufficiently low, preferably between 0% and 5%. In discharging test mode, the initial preset value is 95% to 100%; further, for the battery system under test to be discharged, its SOC should be sufficiently high, preferably between 95% and 100%.

[0102] S3: Start charging or discharging

[0103] The test system initiates charging or discharging of the battery system under test. Charging is performed in charging test mode, and discharging is performed in discharging test mode.

[0104] S4: Obtain initial battery level (W)

[0105] When the test system starts charging or discharging, it acquires the initial electrical quantities (W) collected from the energy storage converter chamber.

[0106] The initial energy level W includes the initial AC energy level, the initial DC energy level, and the initial auxiliary power level. The initial AC energy level obtained in charging and discharging test modes is W respectively. hs W ds The initial DC charge is W hd W dd The initial auxiliary power supply capacity is W. hf W df .

[0107] S5: Determine if the power meets the preset conditions.

[0108] In charging test mode, the test system determines P. L <P max -P e1 If the conditions are met, the energy storage converter is directly controlled to perform a charging test; otherwise, the auxiliary battery system is controlled to discharge. It can be understood that if P... L =P max -P e1 At that time, the energy storage converter can be directly controlled to perform charging tests, and the auxiliary battery system can also be controlled to discharge.

[0109] Where P L P represents the load power of the load connected to the power grid. max P is the maximum power allowed by the power grid. e1 The planned charging power for the battery system under test.

[0110] In discharge test mode, the test system determines P. L >P e2 +P min If the conditions are met, the energy storage converter is directly controlled to perform a discharge test; otherwise, the auxiliary battery system is controlled to charge. It can be understood that if P... L =P e2 +P min At that time, the energy storage converter can be directly controlled to perform discharge tests, and the auxiliary battery system can also be controlled to charge.

[0111] Where P L P represents the load power of the load connected to the power grid. min P is the minimum power allowed by the power grid. e2 The planned discharge power of the battery system under test.

[0112] During the charge and discharge testing of the energy storage battery system, various operating conditions may occur. For example, during the charging test, if the power of the factory's internal load increases, the total power load of the energy storage battery system and the factory's internal load will exceed the rated capacity of the factory's grid connection, which will damage the grid connection. During the discharging test, if the power of the factory's internal load is small, the excess power of the energy storage battery system will be fed back into the grid, causing interference to the grid.

[0113] To avoid these situations, this embodiment includes an auxiliary battery system connected in parallel with the battery system under test. During testing, the load power of the factory load needs to be determined. Based on the determination result, it is determined whether to enable the auxiliary battery system.

[0114] Specifically, during charging tests, if the power of the factory's on-site load increases, the auxiliary battery system will automatically provide a certain amount of discharge power support under the control of the testing system. During discharging tests, if the power of the factory's on-site load is low, the auxiliary battery compartment will automatically provide a certain amount of charging power support under the control of the testing system to prevent excess power from the energy storage battery system from being fed back into the grid.

[0115] Therefore, the test system can automatically control the auxiliary battery system to provide power support according to the power of the load, realize the power regulation inside the energy storage battery system, automatically avoid peak and valley electricity consumption, save resources, avoid overload or backfeeding danger to the power grid, and realize the stability and continuity of the charge and discharge test of the energy storage battery system.

[0116] S6: Perform charging or discharging tests

[0117] When the power is determined to meet preset conditions, the energy storage converter is controlled to perform a charging or discharging test. In charging test mode, a charging test is performed, and the power relationship can be P. c =P e1 , where P c The actual charging power of the battery system under test; perform a discharge test in discharge test mode, and the power relationship can be P. d =P e2 , where P d This represents the actual discharge power of the battery system under test.

If the test conditions are met, i.e., within the peak load period and with an SOC of 95% to 100%, the test system will begin discharging the battery system under test; otherwise, the system will not begin discharging and will remain in a waiting state. After the system begins discharging, it automatically determines the load power *P* of the load. L With the minimum power P allowed by the power grid min Does it meet the discharge requirements? If P L >P e2 +P min If the discharge test function is activated, the energy storage converter chamber will perform a discharge test and acquire and record the initial AC power W. ds Initial DC charge W dd Initial auxiliary power W df If P L <P e2 +P min If this is the case, the auxiliary battery system will be activated to charge it, providing power support for the discharge test. At this time, P f =P d +P min -P L When the battery system under test discharges to 0% SOC, the discharge stops, and the measured AC power W is acquired and recorded. dsi Measurement of DC power W ddi Measurement of auxiliary power supply W dfi The discharge test task is now complete.

[0138] After the discharge test is completed, the system automatically calculates the DC-side discharge quantity W of the battery system under test. d1 =W ddi -W dd AC side discharge quantity W of the power converter d2 =W dsi -W ds The power loss of the auxiliary power supply (W) f损2 =W dfi -W df .

[0139] After a charge-discharge cycle test is completed, the system collects and saves the various quantities of electricity generated during the charging and discharging processes, generates reports, and automatically calculates the AC-side cycle efficiency (W) of the power converter. dsi -W ds ) / (W hsi -W hs)×100%, DC-side cycle efficiency η of the battery system under test d =(W ddi -W dd ) / (W hdi -W hd )×100%, and the power loss W of the auxiliary power supply during one charge-discharge cycle. f损 =(W dfi -W df )+(W hfi -W hf Furthermore, these calculated data, along with data on different ambient temperatures and the power of different battery systems under test, are used to generate data tables and curves for different operating conditions.
