[0063] The detailed description of the specific embodiments of the present disclosure is described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present disclosure, and are not used to limit the present disclosure.

[0064] Current megawatt-level energy storage systems are mainly divided into short-time energy storage systems represented by lithium ion batteries and long-time energy storage systems represented by all-vanadium redox flow batteries, such as Figure 1 As shown, the two types of energy storage systems adopt different system solutions, system architectures and control methods, and cannot overcome their own shortcomings through coupling complementary effects, for example, lithium batteries have a large potential safety risk, and flow batteries have high costs, which hinder the development of large-scale energy storage. In order to solve the above problems and better expand the scale of energy storage, the present disclosure provides a large-scale composite energy storage system to realize the complementary fusion of short-time energy storage and long-time energy storage through the innovative idea and method of establishing direct or indirect cross-coupling paths in three dimensions of electrical energy, thermal energy and chemical energy.

[0065] In the following description, the words "first", "second", and the like, are used only to distinguish the described purposes, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance, nor indicating or implying order.

[0066] Figure 2 is a block diagram of a large-scale composite energy storage system provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 2 The large-scale composite energy storage system includes a grid-coupling platform 10, a grid interface unit 11, an electrical energy coupling platform 12, a thermal energy coupling platform 13, a chemical energy coupling platform 14, a long-time energy platform 15, and a capacity regeneration coupling platform 16.

[0067] The grid-coupling platform 10 is connected with an alternating current grid through the grid interface unit 11, and is used to provide an energy interface for the large-scale composite energy storage system to realize energy management control and grid state monitoring functions;

[0068] The electrical energy coupling platform 12 is used to control the short-time energy storage unit 121, the long-time energy storage power unit 122 in the electrical energy coupling platform 12, and the long-time energy storage energy unit in the long-time energy platform 15 according to the scheduling demand of power and energy, to realize power coupling conversion and energy flow control of the large-scale composite energy storage system, wherein the scheduling demand is determined based on the grid monitoring state;

[0069] The thermal energy coupling platform 13 is used to control the temperature change and thermal energy distribution of the large-scale composite energy storage system according to the thermal management distribution characteristics of the short-time energy storage and the thermal management distribution characteristics of the long-time energy storage;

[0070] The chemical energy coupling platform 14 is used to optimize the long-time energy platform 15 according to the control demand of the long-time energy storage power unit 122 in the electrical energy coupling platform 12, to realize the balance, recovery and regeneration control of the electrolyte;

[0071] A capacity regeneration coupling platform 16 is configured to perform capacity regeneration through the grid-connected coupling platform 10 according to a capacity regeneration requirement of the chemical energy coupling platform 14.

[0072] For example, the alternating current grid can be a grid for new energy power generation, such as a grid for wind power generation. The scheduling demand of power and energy of the grid can be determined by a controller of the controller of the grid scheduling center, that is, the controller of the energy management system (EMS), or can be determined by the EMS according to the operating state. That is, the EMS can autonomously generate the scheduling demand of power and energy, or can receive the scheduling demand of power and energy issued by the upper computer of the grid scheduling center.

[0073] The scheduling demand of power and energy can include long-time energy demand and / or short-time energy demand. If the scheduling demand of power and energy has long-time energy demand, the long-time energy storage power unit 122 of the electrical energy coupling platform 12 and the long-time energy storage energy unit in the long-time energy platform 15 can be controlled to act, and if the scheduling demand of power and energy has short-time energy demand, the short-time energy storage unit 121 of the electrical energy coupling platform 12 can be controlled to act. The chemical energy coupling platform 14 can optimize the long-time energy platform 15 according to the control requirement of the long-time energy storage power unit 122 in the electrical energy coupling platform 12, and the chemical energy coupling platform 14 can control the flow state (such as flow rate) of the electrolyte in the positive tank and the negative tank in the long-time energy platform 15, so that the long-time energy storage power unit 122 in the electrical energy coupling platform 12 can normally operate, and realize the balance, recovery and regeneration control of the electrolyte.

[0074] The thermal management distribution feature refers to the distribution state of heat at the current time. Through the thermal energy coupling platform 13, the distributed flow characteristics of the short-time energy storage liquid cooling and the long-time energy storage electrolyte can be combined with the thermal management distribution features of the short-time energy storage and the long-time energy storage, the thermal management requirements in different modes such as refrigeration and heat dissipation and heat supply start-up can be combined, and the comprehensive thermal management efficiency of the large-scale composite energy storage system can be improved.

[0075] Through the setting of the capacity regeneration coupling platform 16, capacity regeneration can be realized through the grid-connected coupling platform 10 according to the capacity regeneration requirement of the chemical energy coupling platform 14, so as to reduce the energy and material loss of the coupling module, provide active support capability for network construction in the mixed energy storage mode, and improve the long-time nature, reliability and safety of the large-scale composite energy storage system.

[0076] In the above technical solution, the grid-connected coupling platform connects to the AC grid through a grid interface unit to provide an energy interface for the large-scale composite energy storage system, enabling energy management control and grid status monitoring. The electrical coupling platform controls the short-term energy storage units, long-term energy storage power units, and long-term energy storage energy units in the long-term energy platform according to power and energy dispatch requirements, achieving power coupling conversion and energy flow control for the large-scale composite energy storage system. The dispatch requirements are determined based on the grid monitoring status. The thermal coupling platform controls the temperature changes and thermal distribution of the large-scale composite energy storage system based on the thermal management distribution characteristics of short-term and long-term energy storage. The chemical energy coupling platform optimizes the long-term energy platform according to the control requirements of the long-term energy storage power units in the electrical coupling platform, enabling the balance, recovery, and regeneration control of the electrolyte. The capacity regeneration coupling platform achieves capacity regeneration by coupling the grid-connected coupling platform according to the capacity regeneration requirements of the chemical energy coupling platform. Thus, by establishing innovative ideas and methods for direct or indirect cross-coupling paths of electrical energy, thermal energy, and chemical energy, we can leverage the complementary and integrated characteristics of short-term and long-term energy storage, optimize the energy and power distribution between them, and achieve optimized utilization of electrical, thermal, and chemical energy. This also enables online repair and regeneration of the coupling modules, reduces energy and material losses, provides active support for the construction of hybrid energy storage systems, and ultimately improves the long-term performance, reliability, and safety of large-scale composite energy storage systems.

[0078] The cascaded DC-AC converter is used to convert the energy provided by the AC grid into DC power and input the DC power to the power coupling platform 12, or to convert the DC power of the power coupling platform 12 into AC power and input the energy to the AC grid.

[0079] The grid-connected coupling platform 10 is also used to convert the energy provided by the AC grid into AC power at the target voltage, and input the AC power at the target voltage to the capacity regeneration coupling platform 16.

The DC side of the first subsystem is connected with the direct current end of the electric energy coupling platform 12, and the AC side is sequentially connected in series to form a low-voltage end and a high-voltage end. The high-voltage end is connected with the power grid interface unit 11, and the low-voltage end is connected with the capacity regenerative coupling platform 16, that is, the alternating current of the target voltage is low-voltage alternating current. The state of the DC-AC converter can be independently controlled based on the high-frequency PWM (pulse width modulation) switching frequency, or jointly controlled based on the low-frequency switching frequency of the cascaded H-bridge, so that the system efficiency can be improved.

[0085] The chemical energy supply unit 125 connects the short-time energy storage unit 121 with the chemical energy coupling platform 14 through the long-time chemical energy interface end.

[0086] M can be a positive integer, and each phase second subsystem can include the same number of electric energy coupling modules. Based on the structure of the electric energy coupling platform 12 described above, the large-scale composite energy storage system can effectively utilize the characteristics of the organic and flexible combination of high-voltage isolation and non-isolation power conversion in different links in terms of power conversion. Based on the complementary principle of the non-isolation design of the short-time energy storage and the isolation design of the long-time energy storage, the comprehensive efficiency improvement potential of power conversion can be fully utilized.

[0087] For example, the DC power interface end is connected to the DC end of the short-time energy storage unit 121 inside the energy coupling module, and is connected to the DC end of the long-time energy storage power unit 122 through a bidirectional DC-DC isolation unit 123; the DC power interface end is connected to the DC end of the grid coupling platform 10.

[0088] In an optional embodiment, the thermal management first target device and the thermal management second target device are determined according to the optimization target of the heat dissipation system corresponding to the large-scale composite energy storage system, and the optimization target is used to realize the coupling between the short-time thermal management units 131, between the long-time thermal management units 132, or between the short-time thermal management units 131 and the long-time thermal management units 132, with the minimum heat energy loss of the system as the target.

[0089] The parts in the large-scale composite energy storage system have different demands for heat energy, and by setting the optimization target, the excess heat of part A in the large-scale composite energy storage system can be transferred to part B which needs heat energy, so as to reduce the overall heat energy loss of the large-scale composite energy storage system.

[0094] The long-time thermal energy management unit 132 is connected to the long-time thermal energy interface end of the electric energy coupling platform 12;

[0095] The thermal coupling heat dissipation unit 133 is connected to the short-time thermal energy management unit 131 and the long-time thermal energy management unit 132, and the thermal coupling heat dissipation unit 133 includes a heat storage unit.

[0096] Wherein, O can be a positive integer, and each phase second subsystem can include the same number of thermal energy coupling modules. The short-time thermal energy management unit 131 and the long-time thermal energy management unit 132 can select independent heat dissipation or coupled heat dissipation with the heat storage unit.

[0097] In this way, in the heat dissipation management of the large-scale composite energy storage system, the thermal management distribution characteristics of the short-time energy storage in the high-rate mode can be combined with the thermal management distribution characteristics of the long-time energy storage in the low-rate mode, the distributed flow characteristics of the short-time energy storage liquid cooling and the long-time energy storage electrolyte can be played, and the thermal management requirements in different modes such as refrigeration heat dissipation and heat supply startup can be appropriately introduced. The comprehensive thermal management efficiency of the composite energy storage system is improved.

[0098] In an optional embodiment, as shown in Figure 3 The chemical energy coupling platform 14 includes three-phase fourth subsystems, each phase fourth subsystem includes P chemical energy coupling modules, and each chemical energy coupling module includes an electrolyte flow driving unit 141, an online capacity balancing unit 142, an online capacity repair unit 143, and an online capacity regeneration management unit 144.

[0099] The electrolyte flow driving unit 141 is connected to the chemical energy power supply unit 125 and the long-time energy storage power unit 122 of the electric energy coupling platform 12, and is used to drive the circulation flow of the electrolyte in the multiple long-time energy storage power units 122 according to the charge and discharge requirements of the long-time energy storage power unit 122, wherein the electrolyte flow driving unit 141 and the long-time energy storage power unit 122 are connected through an electrolyte pipeline;

[0100] The online capacity balancing unit 142 is connected to the electrolyte flow driving unit 141 and connected to the multiple long-time energy storage energy units of the long-time energy platform 15 through the distribution of the electrolyte pipeline, and is used to drive the capacity balancing distribution of the electrolyte in the multiple long-time energy storage energy units according to the capacity balancing requirements of the long-time energy platform 15;

[0102] The online capacity regeneration management unit 144 is connected to the electrolyte flow drive unit 141 and the capacity regeneration coupling platform 16, and is connected to multiple long-term energy storage units of the long-term energy platform 15 through the distribution of electrolyte pipelines. It is used to drive the capacity regeneration distribution of electrolyte in multiple long-term energy storage units according to the capacity regeneration requirements of the long-term energy platform 15.

[0103] Where P can be a positive integer, each phase fourth subsystem can include the same number of chemical energy coupling modules, and the charging and discharging requirements can be confirmed and issued by the energy management system (EMS).

[0104] In an optional embodiment, the chemical energy coupling platform 14 further includes a short-time energy storage safety management module connected to the short-time energy storage unit 121 of the electrical energy coupling platform 12, used to control the capacity of the short-time energy storage unit 121 according to safety operation requirements. These safety operation requirements can be confirmed and issued by the energy management system (EMS).

[0105] Thus, in the chemical energy management of large-scale composite energy storage systems, the capacity imbalance variation patterns of short-term energy storage in high-rate mode and long-term energy storage in low-rate mode can be combined. This leverages the different optimization characteristics of strong power coupling between short-term energy storage modules and strong energy coupling between long-term energy storage modules. By appropriately introducing capacity regeneration units containing recyclable materials, the online capacity balancing capability of the entire composite energy storage system can be optimized, the online capacity repair level can be improved, and ultimately, long-term online capacity regeneration of the composite energy storage system can be achieved, thereby improving the long-life safety and maintenance-free operation of the composite energy storage system.

[0106] In an alternative embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the long-term energy platform 15 may include a three-phase fifth subsystem, each phase fifth subsystem including Q long-term energy storage units, each long-term energy storage unit including a positive electrode tank and a negative electrode tank;

[0107] The long-term energy storage unit is connected to the long-term energy storage power unit 122 of the electrical energy coupling platform 12 via the chemical energy coupling platform 14 to achieve online capacity balancing and online capacity repair.

[0108] The long-term energy storage unit is also connected to the capacity regeneration coupling platform 16 through the chemical energy coupling platform 14 to achieve online capacity regeneration.

[0109] For example, Q can be a positive integer, and each fifth subsystem can include the same number of long-duration energy storage units. The long-duration energy storage units can be connected to the long-duration energy storage power units 122 of the electrical energy coupling platform 12 through the chemical energy coupling platform 14, can be expanded according to the duration of energy storage, and can be completely decoupled from other long-duration energy storage power units 122. The long-duration energy storage units can participate in the implementation of online capacity balancing, online capacity repair, and online capacity regeneration through the connection of the chemical energy coupling platform 14, the long-duration energy storage power units 122 of the electrical energy coupling platform 12, and the capacity regeneration coupling platform 16.

[0110] In an optional embodiment, the long-duration energy module is also used to control the coupling processing of the thermal coupling heat dissipation units 133, the short-duration thermal energy management units 131, or the long-duration thermal energy management units 132 in the thermal energy coupling platform 13 according to the temperature and thermal energy distribution control demand, to perform optimized regulation and energy distribution.

[0111] In this way, the coupling of the system can be further improved, and the comprehensive thermal management efficiency of the composite energy storage system can be improved.

[0112] In an optional embodiment, as shown in Figure 3 The capacity regeneration coupling platform 16 can include R three-phase parallel AC-DC converters 161 and long-duration energy storage capacity regeneration units 162 corresponding to each of the AC-DC converters 161, where the AC-DC converters 161 are connected to the three-phase common ground side of the grid coupling platform 10; and the long-duration energy storage capacity regeneration units 162 include a regeneration anode tank, a regeneration cathode tank, and a regeneration power management unit for electrolysis.

[0113] The long-duration energy storage capacity regeneration units 162 are connected to the online capacity regeneration management unit 144 of the chemical energy coupling platform 14, are connected to the positive tank and the negative tank of the long-duration energy platform 15 through the distribution of the electrolyte pipeline, are used to guide the electrolyte that needs to be regenerated in the long-duration energy storage energy unit into the regeneration anode tank or the regeneration cathode tank of the long-duration energy storage capacity regeneration unit 162 when in the regeneration mode, and are used to complete the regeneration process of the electrolyte through electrolysis after adding the regeneration material through the AC-DC converter 161. The electrolyte after regeneration is controlled by the online capacity regeneration management unit 144 to flow to the positive tank and the negative tank from the regeneration anode tank and the regeneration cathode tank, respectively, to realize the system capacity regeneration distribution.

[0114] The structure of the regeneration power management unit is similar to that of the long-duration energy storage power unit 122 of the electrical energy coupling platform 12, and the two can be the same type of unit or different types of unit, which is not limited here. The regeneration power management unit can be connected to the online capacity regeneration management unit 144.

[0115] In an optional embodiment, the long-duration energy storage capacity regeneration unit 162 is further configured to control the AC end of the AC-DC converter 161 to maintain a zero voltage point, and the DC end to maintain an operating reference voltage in the electrolytic tank, and the regeneration anode tank and the regeneration cathode tank to maintain an active standby state when the capacity regeneration coupling platform 16 is not in the regeneration mode.

[0116] For example, the capacity regeneration coupling platform 16 can be determined to be in the regeneration mode according to the capacity self-checking result. If the capacity self-checking result is greater than a preset threshold value, it can be determined that the capacity of the long-duration energy storage device has a serious capacity problem and the problem can be solved by capacity regeneration. At this time, the capacity regeneration coupling platform 16 can be in the regeneration mode to realize capacity regeneration. If the capacity self-checking result is less than the preset threshold value, it can be determined that the capacity problem of the long-duration energy storage device is not serious and can be solved by capacity balancing or capacity repair. At this time, the capacity regeneration coupling platform 16 can not enter the regeneration mode to reduce the energy consumption of the system. Controlling the AC end of the AC-DC converter 161 to maintain a zero voltage point, and the DC end to maintain an operating reference voltage in the electrolytic tank, and the regeneration anode tank and the regeneration cathode tank to maintain an active standby state can quickly start to realize capacity regeneration when the capacity regeneration coupling platform 16 enters the regeneration mode.

[0117] In an optional embodiment, the large-scale composite energy storage system provided by the present disclosure can further comprise a controller, which can be configured to:

[0118] control the large-scale composite energy storage system to perform self-checking;

[0119] if the self-checking is passed, determine the power and energy scheduling demand of the alternating current power grid;

[0120] according to the scheduling demand, sequentially start the corresponding platform in the large-scale composite energy storage system;

[0121] after the grid coupling platform is started, start the target operating mode according to the grid monitoring state.

[0122] The self-checking includes periodic fault self-checking, non-periodic fault self-checking, capacity self-checking and temperature condition self-checking. The non-periodic fault self-checking is performed when the target parameter in the large-scale composite energy storage system reaches the corresponding reference threshold value. The target parameter can be the related data of the pre-set monitoring point, and the corresponding parameter threshold value can be pre-set according to the actual demand.

[0123] For example, the periodic detection can include periodic detection in two time scale ranges. A large time scale period is at least 1 more protection cycle periods, and the period length is determined according to protection requirements, generally in the range of milliseconds to seconds. A small time scale period is at least 1 more control cycle periods, and the period length is determined according to control requirements, generally in the range of microseconds to milliseconds. In addition, for time-sensitive key protection and control, a non-periodic interruption can be set to reduce the response delay.

[0124] In an optional embodiment, the controller can also be used for:

[0125] If the periodic fault self-check result or the non-periodic fault self-check result is abnormal, the fault point is isolated or removed;

[0126] If the periodic fault self-check result and the non-periodic fault self-check result are not abnormal, capacity self-check is performed.

[0127] In this way, the fault self-check of the large-scale composite energy storage system provided by the present disclosure can improve the safety and reliability of system operation, and when there is an abnormal monitoring point, the abnormal part can be processed in time to avoid affecting the overall operation of the system.

[0128] In an optional embodiment, the controller can also be used for:

[0129] If the capacity self-check result is abnormal, the large-scale composite energy storage system is controlled to perform online capacity balancing, repair, or capacity regeneration;

[0130] If the capacity self-check result is not abnormal, temperature condition self-check is performed.

[0131] For example, the capacity self-check result can be determined based on capacity balancing degree self-check and capacity health degree, to represent whether the system capacity is abnormal. If the capacity self-check result is abnormal, it can be determined that the system capacity is abnormal, and the abnormal problem can be solved by online capacity balancing, repair, or capacity regeneration. For example, the capacity self-check result can be represented by a numerical value, if the numerical value is greater than a first capacity threshold, it can be determined that the capacity abnormality is more serious, and the problem can be solved by online capacity regeneration, at this time the capacity regeneration coupling platform can be controlled to start; if the numerical value is less than the first capacity threshold and greater than a second capacity threshold, it can be determined that the capacity abnormality is relatively slight, and the problem can be solved by online capacity balancing and repair, at this time the online capacity repair unit and the online capacity balancing unit can be controlled to start; if the numerical value is less than the second capacity threshold, it can be determined that the system capacity is not abnormal, at this time, temperature condition self-check can be performed. In this way, the online capacity balancing capability of the entire composite energy storage system can be optimized, the online capacity repair level can be improved, and finally the long-term online capacity regeneration of the composite energy storage system can be realized, greatly improving the long-life safety and artificial maintenance level of the composite energy storage system.

[0132] In an optional embodiment, the controller can also be configured to:

[0133] If the temperature condition self-checking result is abnormal, the controller controls the thermal energy coupling platform to start;

[0134] If the temperature condition self-checking result is normal, the controller determines the dispatching requirement.

[0135] For example, if the temperature of the large-scale composite energy storage system is out of the preset temperature range, it can be determined that the temperature condition self-checking result is abnormal, and the thermal energy coupling platform can be controlled to start. In this way, the thermal management distribution characteristics of the short-time energy storage in the high-rate mode and the thermal management distribution characteristics of the long-time energy storage in the low-rate mode can be combined, the distributed flow characteristics of the short-time energy storage liquid cooling and the long-time energy storage electrolyte can be utilized, the heat storage technology can be appropriately introduced, the thermal management requirements in different modes such as refrigeration and heat dissipation and heat supply starting can be combined, and the comprehensive thermal management efficiency of the composite energy storage system can be improved.

[0136] If the temperature condition self-checking result is normal, it can be determined that the large-scale composite energy storage system passes the self-checking, and the controller can generate the dispatching requirement of the power and energy of the alternating current power grid according to the power grid monitoring state. The dispatching requirement of the power and energy can include a long-time energy requirement and / or a short-time energy requirement, and the determination of the dispatching requirement of the power and energy of the alternating current power grid can be implemented based on the technical solutions in the related art, which is not limited here.

[0137] In an optional embodiment, the controller can be configured to start the corresponding platforms in the large-scale composite energy storage system in sequence according to the dispatching requirement by the following method:

[0138] If the dispatching requirement includes a long-time energy requirement, the controller controls the long-time energy storage power unit of the electrical energy coupling platform, the electrolyte flow driving unit of the chemical energy coupling platform, the long-time energy platform, and the grid coupling platform to start in sequence.

[0139] If the dispatching requirement includes a short-time energy requirement, the controller controls the short-time energy storage unit of the electrical energy coupling platform and the grid coupling platform to start in sequence.

[0140] In this way, the fast frequency modulation capability of the short-time energy storage in the high-rate mode and the long-time peak regulation capability of the long-time energy storage in the low-rate mode can be combined, and the complementary characteristics of the short-time energy storage compensating for the power uncertainty of new energy fluctuation and the long-time energy storage balancing the seasonal energy uncertainty of new energy can be fully utilized.

[0141] In an optional embodiment, the power grid monitoring state is determined based on the impedance of the power grid.

[0142] For example, if the grid impedance is in a first preset range of impedance, the grid monitoring state can be determined as a strong grid monitoring state, and if the grid impedance is in a second preset range of impedance, the grid monitoring state can be determined as a weak grid monitoring state. When the grid monitoring state is determined as a weak grid monitoring state, it can be further determined whether the grid monitoring state is an off-grid state.

[0143] In an optional embodiment, the target operation mode includes a follow-grid structure and parameters in a grid-connected mode, a build-grid structure and parameters in the grid-connected mode, or a build-grid structure and parameters in an off-grid mode.

[0144] For example, the relationship between the grid state and the target operation mode can be preset, for example, if the grid is in a strong grid state, the follow-grid structure and parameters in the grid-connected mode can be started; if the grid is in a weak grid state, the build-grid structure and parameters in the grid-connected mode can be started; and if the grid is in an off-grid state, the build-grid structure and parameters in the off-grid mode can be started. In this way, the corresponding operation mode can be started based on the actual state of the grid, so as to improve the operation efficiency, stability, economy and safety of the system.
