However, it should be clear to those skilled in the art that the present invention may be implemented in other embodiments without these specific details.

[0020] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clear, specific embodiments will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0021] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the energy storage system provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the energy storage system includes an energy storage inverter and at least one battery module; the battery module includes a battery unit and a DC conversion circuit; the power supply end of the battery unit is connected to the first end of the DC conversion circuit, and the second end of the DC conversion circuit is connected to the DC bus of the energy storage inverter; the AC end of the energy storage inverter is used to connect to the power grid.

[0022] The energy storage system also includes a monitoring host, which is used to monitor various devices in the energy storage system and generate corresponding control strategies to control the energy storage system. The executor of the control method of the energy storage system provided in this embodiment can be the monitoring host in the energy storage system.

[0023] See also Figure 2 , which shows a flow chart of the implementation of the control method of the energy storage system provided by the embodiment of the present invention, and is described in detail as follows:

[0024] S101: When the energy storage system is in a standby state, obtaining electrical parameters of the battery unit.

[0025] In this embodiment, when the entire energy storage system has neither a charging task nor a discharging task, it enters a standby state. When the energy storage system is in the standby state, the voltage of the DC bus needs to be stabilized within a certain range to ensure that the energy storage system can be quickly started when it works again. At present, when the energy storage system is in the standby state, the power of the battery unit is usually used to stabilize the DC bus voltage. However, when the power of the battery unit is insufficient, not only can the DC bus voltage not be stabilized, but continuous DC bus voltage stabilization will also cause the battery unit to be exhausted. This will affect the life of the battery unit and cause the battery unit to be unable to start when working again.

[0026] In order to solve the above problem, this embodiment monitors the electrical parameters of the battery unit. When the electrical parameters do not meet the first preset condition, the DC bus is stabilized by the power grid to avoid the problem of unstable DC bus voltage and ensure the normal operation of the battery unit.

[0027] Specifically, the electrical parameters of the battery cell may include SOC (State of Charge), available remaining capacity and output voltage.

[0028] S102: If the electrical parameters of the battery unit meet a first preset condition, controlling the DC conversion circuit to stabilize the DC bus.

[0029] In this embodiment, if the electrical parameter is the battery output voltage, then if the battery output voltage of all battery cells is greater than the preset voltage threshold, it means that the capacity of the battery cell is high, and the battery cell can stabilize the DC bus voltage through the DC conversion circuit; if there is a battery cell whose battery output voltage is not greater than the preset voltage threshold, it means that there is a battery cell with a small capacity and cannot stabilize the DC bus voltage. At this time, the DC bus voltage can be supported by the power of the power grid. If the electrical parameter is the SOC value, then when it is monitored that the SOC values ​​of all battery cells are greater than the preset SOC threshold, the DC conversion circuit corresponding to each battery cell is controlled to stabilize the DC bus voltage; when it is monitored that the SOC value of a battery cell is not greater than the preset SOC threshold, the DC bus voltage is stabilized by the power of the power grid.

[0030] In a possible implementation, the DC conversion circuit is a bidirectional DCDC circuit with a flying capacitor; Figure 3 As shown, the bidirectional DCDC circuit includes charging tubes (Q3-D3, Q4-D4) and discharge tubes (Q1-D1, Q2-D2), and the flying capacitors are C1, C2 and C3. In this bidirectional DCDC circuit, when the low-voltage side is powered on and slowly started, the low-voltage side capacitor is slowly charged through the low-voltage side slow charging circuit, and the flying capacitor and the high-voltage side bus capacitor are slowly charged through the DCDC topology; when a black start is required, the DC contactor is attracted, and the external DC bus is slowly charged at the same time. The specific charging circuit includes: Charging circuit 1: charging C1 and C3 through L1, D3, C1, and D6. When the flying capacitor voltage is slowly charged to half of the input voltage, the flying capacitor voltage is maintained; Charging circuit 2: slow charging C2 through L1, D3, and D4. In the slow-start state of power-on on the high-voltage side, the high-voltage side KM3 contactor is energized, and the low-voltage side capacitor is buffered through the low-voltage side buffer resistor. The specific charging circuits include: Charging circuit 1: C1 and C3 are charged through L1, D3, C1, and D6. When the flying capacitor voltage is slowly charged to half of the input voltage, the flying capacitor voltage is maintained; Charging circuit 2: C2 is slowly charged through L1, D3, and D4.

[0031] Based on the above circuit structure, the specific implementation process of S102 further includes:

[0032] If the battery cell is in a charge-forbidden state and the available remaining capacity of the battery cell is greater than a preset power threshold, the DC conversion circuit is controlled to operate in a constant voltage operation mode, the driving of the charging tube in the bidirectional DC conversion circuit is blocked, and the discharge tube in the DC conversion circuit is driven to operate;

[0033] If the battery cell is in a prohibited discharge state and the available remaining capacity of the battery cell is greater than a preset power threshold, the DC conversion circuit is controlled to operate in a constant voltage working mode, the discharge tube in the bidirectional DC conversion circuit is blocked from driving, and the charging tube in the DC conversion circuit is driven to operate.

[0034] In this embodiment, after the battery unit is discharged normally until the controller issues a discharge prohibition instruction, the bidirectional DCDC circuit will block the drive and standby operation. At this time, the bidirectional DCDC circuit operates in a constant voltage working mode, that is, provides a constant voltage value to stabilize the DC bus voltage. In the constant voltage working mode, since the bidirectional DCDC circuit has blocked the pulse, the bidirectional DCDC circuit stabilizes the DC bus voltage at a certain value, but since the buses between the bidirectional DCDC circuits are connected in parallel, and there are differences between the bus current samplings, according to the bus current equalization strategy, the bidirectional DCDC circuit with a low bus current sampling will raise its own bus voltage to increase the bus current. At this time, the battery will continue to output discharge current to ensure bus current equalization; causing the low-voltage battery to continue to pump current into other batteries until the battery is depleted.

[0035] In order to ensure that the bidirectional DCDC circuit does not discharge after the discharge is prohibited and does not charge after the charging is prohibited, so as to prevent the battery from being overcharged or over-discharged, the controller of this embodiment blocks the charging tube of the bidirectional DCDC circuit after receiving the charging prohibition instruction, and controls the normal operation of the discharge tube, and realizes the stability of the flying capacitor through the stable flying loop; after receiving the discharge prohibition instruction, the discharge tube of the bidirectional DCDC circuit is blocked, and the charging tube operates normally, and realizes the stability of the flying capacitor through the stable flying loop. Through the above scheme, this embodiment can not only avoid the problem of battery overcharge or over-discharge, but also effectively stabilize the DC bus voltage through multiple battery units.

[0036] In a possible implementation, the electrical parameter includes available remaining capacity; the specific implementation process of S102 includes:

[0037] If the available remaining capacity of the battery unit is greater than a preset power threshold, the DC conversion circuit is controlled to operate in a constant voltage working mode so that the DC conversion circuit stabilizes the DC bus.

[0038] In a possible implementation, the battery module includes a plurality of battery modules, and the power supply end of the battery unit in each battery module is connected to the first end of the corresponding DC conversion circuit, and the second end of each DC conversion circuit is connected to the DC bus of the energy storage converter; the specific implementation process of S102 includes:

[0039] If the electrical parameters of all battery cells meet the first preset condition, the DC conversion circuit is controlled to stabilize the DC bus.

[0040] Specifically, when the available remaining capacity of all battery cells is greater than a preset power threshold, the corresponding DC conversion circuit is controlled to operate in a constant voltage working mode so that each battery cell stabilizes the DC bus.

[0041] S103: If the electrical parameters of the battery unit do not meet the first preset condition, control the energy storage converter to stabilize the DC bus.

[0042] In a possible implementation, the battery module includes multiple battery modules, and the power supply end of the battery unit in each battery module is connected to the first end of the corresponding DC conversion circuit, and the second end of each DC conversion circuit is connected to the DC bus of the energy storage converter; the specific implementation process of S103 includes:

[0043] If the electrical parameters of a battery unit do not satisfy the first preset condition, the energy storage converter is controlled to stabilize the DC bus.

[0044] In this embodiment, if there is a battery cell whose available remaining capacity is not greater than a preset power threshold, the charging tube and the discharging tube of the battery cell are blocked, and the number of battery cells that are prohibited from charging and discharging is monitored in real time. If the number of battery cells that are prohibited from charging and discharging is greater than the preset number threshold, the energy storage inverter is controlled to draw power from the power grid for DC bus voltage stabilization.

[0045] In this embodiment, if there is a small amount of battery cells with insufficient available remaining capacity, the battery cells are controlled to prohibit charging and discharging. At this time, most of the other battery cells are still operating in the constant voltage working mode. Since most of the other battery cells can still provide a constant voltage for the DC bus, although the DC bus voltage drops slightly, the bus voltage can still be stabilized at a certain value. Therefore, at this time, the bus voltage can be stabilized based on the power of the battery cells. If the number of battery cells prohibited from charging and discharging is greater than the preset number threshold, the DC bus voltage cannot be stabilized. At this time, the battery cells can be controlled to enter the prohibited charging and discharging state, and the energy storage inverter can be controlled to enter the constant voltage working mode of AC to DC, and the grid electrical signal is used to stabilize the DC bus voltage to ensure the stability of the DC bus voltage.

[0046] In a possible implementation manner, the specific implementation process of S103 further includes:

[0047] If the electrical parameter of the battery unit does not meet the first preset condition, the energy storage converter is controlled to operate in a constant voltage operating mode so that the energy storage converter stabilizes the DC bus.

[0048] In a possible implementation manner, another implementation process of S102 includes:

[0049] If the electrical parameter of the battery unit meets the first preset condition and the electricity price of the power grid is lower than the electricity price threshold, controlling the energy storage converter to stabilize the DC bus;

[0050] If the electrical parameter of the battery unit meets the first preset condition and the electricity price of the power grid is not lower than the electricity price threshold, the DC conversion circuit is controlled to stabilize the DC bus.

[0051] In this embodiment, on the premise that the electrical parameters of at least N battery cells meet the first preset condition, the DC bus voltage stabilization method can be determined according to the grid electricity price. When the grid electricity price is high, the power of the battery cells is consumed for DC bus voltage stabilization, and when the grid electricity price is low, the power of the grid is consumed for DC bus voltage stabilization, wherein N is the value obtained by subtracting the preset number threshold from the total number of battery cells in the energy storage system.

[0052] It can be seen from the above embodiments that the method provided in this embodiment can not only stabilize the DC bus voltage, but also reduce the cost of stabilizing the bus voltage.

[0053] It should be understood that the order of execution of the steps in the above embodiment does not necessarily mean the order of execution. The execution order of each process should be determined by its function and internal logic, and should not constitute any limitation on the implementation process of the embodiment of the present invention.

[0059] The converter voltage stabilization module 130 is used to control the energy storage converter to stabilize the DC bus voltage if the electrical parameter of the battery unit does not meet the first preset condition.

[0060] In a possible implementation, the electrical parameter includes available remaining capacity; the battery voltage stabilization module 120 includes:

[0061] If the available remaining capacity of the battery unit is greater than a preset power threshold, the DC conversion circuit is controlled to operate in a constant voltage working mode so that the DC conversion circuit stabilizes the DC bus.

[0062] In a possible implementation, the DC conversion circuit is a bidirectional DCDC circuit with a flying capacitor; and the bidirectional DCDC circuit includes a charging tube and a discharging tube; the battery voltage stabilization module 120 further includes:

[0063] If the battery cell is in a charge-forbidden state and the available remaining capacity of the battery cell is greater than a preset power threshold, the DC conversion circuit is controlled to operate in a constant voltage operation mode, the driving of the charging tube in the bidirectional DC conversion circuit is blocked, and the discharge tube in the DC conversion circuit is driven to operate;

[0064] If the battery cell is in a prohibited discharge state and the available remaining capacity of the battery cell is greater than a preset power threshold, the DC conversion circuit is controlled to operate in a constant voltage working mode, the discharge tube in the bidirectional DC conversion circuit is blocked from driving, and the charging tube in the DC conversion circuit is driven to operate.

[0065] In a possible implementation, the battery module includes a plurality of battery modules, and the power supply end of the battery unit in each battery module is connected to the first end of the corresponding DC conversion circuit, and the second end of each DC conversion circuit is connected to the DC bus of the energy storage converter; the battery voltage stabilizing module 120 specifically includes:

[0066] If the electrical parameters of all battery cells meet the first preset condition, the DC conversion circuit is controlled to stabilize the DC bus.

[0067] In a possible implementation, the battery module includes multiple battery modules, and the power supply end of the battery unit in each battery module is connected to the first end of the corresponding DC conversion circuit, and the second end of each DC conversion circuit is connected to the DC bus of the energy storage converter; the converter voltage stabilizing module 130 includes:

[0069] In a possible implementation, the converter voltage stabilizing module 130 further includes:

[0070] If the electrical parameter of the battery unit does not meet the first preset condition, the energy storage converter is controlled to operate in a constant voltage operating mode so that the energy storage converter stabilizes the DC bus.

[0073] If the electrical parameter of the battery unit meets the first preset condition and the electricity price of the power grid is not lower than the electricity price threshold, the DC conversion circuit is controlled to stabilize the DC bus.

[0074] It can be seen from the above embodiments that the above device can avoid the problem that the energy storage system cannot be started due to low battery power caused by battery voltage stabilization when the energy storage system is in standby mode, and maintain the stability of the DC bus voltage of the energy storage system.
