[0002] With the large-scale application of renewable energy such as solar energy and wind energy, their power generation has the characteristics of intermittent and fluctuating. Energy storage devices play an important role in smoothing power fluctuations and ensuring stable power supply. For example, energy storage devices supporting photovoltaic power stations are used to store excess electricity and release electricity when wind power is low. As a key component of energy storage devices, the stable operation of battery clusters is crucial, which has given rise to the need for overvoltage and undervoltage protection to cope with voltage anomalies that may occur under complex working conditions and ensure the reliable operation of energy storage systems.

[0003] Energy storage devices are often integrated with multiple battery clusters in series and parallel to form a large-capacity energy storage system to meet the needs of different scenarios.

[0057] The specific implementation of the present application is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific implementation described here is only used to illustrate and explain the present application, and is not used to limit the present application.

[0058] The energy storage device and the undervoltage and overvoltage backup protection method and system of the battery cluster 10 according to the present application are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0059] Since different types of batteries (such as lithium-ion batteries, lead-acid batteries, etc.) have their own suitable operating voltage ranges, if the voltage exceeds this range, it may cause problems such as decomposition of the electrolyte inside the battery and damage to the electrode material structure, which seriously affects the battery life and even leads to safety hazards such as thermal runaway; undervoltage is easy to cause battery plate sulfidation and irreversible damage to the active material, which will reduce the battery capacity and performance. Therefore, it is necessary to rely on overvoltage and undervoltage protection technology to accurately control the voltage of the battery cluster 10 according to the battery characteristics to maintain good battery performance. At present, the energy storage device battery cluster 10 has two-level undervoltage and overvoltage protection hardware. The first level of protection is the undervoltage / overvoltage protection of the BMS system itself. When the battery management system (BMS) detects that the total DC voltage of the battery cluster 10 is lower than or higher than the set protection threshold, it will cut off the discharge circuit in time to prevent the battery from continuing to discharge, and send an alarm signal to the external device to inform the undervoltage situation, and then reasonable charging recovery is required. The second level of protection is the energy storage converter protection. When the PCS detects that the DC bus voltage is lower than or higher than the set protection threshold, it will trigger the PCS fault alarm to prevent the DC side voltage from being undervoltage or overvoltage and affecting the grid side voltage.

[0060] In view of this, if Figure 1 As shown, the present application provides a backup protection method for undervoltage and overvoltage of a battery cluster 10 of an energy storage device, which can be used as a third-level protection for undervoltage / overvoltage of the battery cluster 10, timely discover and handle undervoltage / overvoltage problems, reduce system downtime caused by battery failure, and improve the overall reliability of the energy storage system. The backup protection method for undervoltage and overvoltage of the battery cluster 10 includes the following steps:

[0061] S10: reducing the total DC voltage of the battery cluster 10 by a preset multiple and outputting a first output voltage;

[0062] S20: Acquire an overvoltage protection threshold and an undervoltage protection threshold of the battery cluster 10;

[0063] S30: comparing the first output voltage with an overvoltage protection threshold and an undervoltage protection threshold respectively, and outputting a first pulse voltage and a second pulse voltage;

[0064] S40: performing OR gate logic judgment on the first pulse voltage and the second pulse voltage respectively;

[0065] S50: Controlling the tripping circuit where the circuit breaker 50 of the energy storage device is located to be turned on or off according to the judgment result.

[0066] In this embodiment, the total DC voltage of the battery cluster 10 is first obtained, and then the total DC voltage of the battery cluster 10 collected is proportionally reduced by 100 times and output through the power isolation sensor 20, and the output voltage of the power isolation sensor 20 is compared with the overvoltage protection threshold and the undervoltage protection threshold through the voltage comparator 30, and two pulse voltages are output; secondly, the output two pulse voltages are subjected to OR gate logic judgment; finally, the relay 60 is driven by the OR gate circuit to control the tripping circuit of the AC molded case circuit breaker 50 at the incoming line of the energy storage device, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling the tripping of the molded case circuit breaker 50, thereby protecting the battery cluster 10 from overvoltage or undervoltage conditions. The technical solution of the present application can play a role of backup protection when the total positive and total negative voltages of the battery cluster 10 are too high or too low, and can improve the reliability of system power supply when the undervoltage / overvoltage protection of the BMS and PCS fails.

[0067] In some embodiments, the step of reducing the total DC voltage of the battery cluster 10 by a preset multiple and outputting the first output voltage includes:

[0068] Connect the input end of the power isolation sensor 20 to the positive and negative electrodes of the battery cluster 10;

[0069] Collecting the total DC voltage of the battery cluster 10;

[0070] The total DC voltage is reduced by a preset multiple through the electrical isolation sensor 20 .

[0071] In this embodiment, the input terminal of the power isolation sensor 20 is connected to the total positive and negative terminals of the battery cluster 10 to collect the total DC voltage of the battery cluster 10, and the collected total DC voltage of the battery cluster 10 is proportionally reduced by 100 times and output, for example, 800V DC voltage is converted into 8V DC voltage through the power isolation sensor 20. Since the voltage of the battery cluster 10 in the energy storage device is very large, there will be huge safety risks if it is directly operated. In this application, by reducing the total DC voltage of the battery cluster 10, overvoltage or undervoltage protection can be performed for the reduced first output voltage, so as to timely discover and handle undervoltage / overvoltage problems.

[0072] For the battery cluster 10 of the industrial and commercial energy storage device, the battery cluster 10 is composed of 5 battery PACKs connected in series, and a single battery PACK is composed of 48 batteries connected in series. Then the entire battery cluster 10 is composed of 48*5=240 batteries connected in series, and the nominal voltage of the battery cell is 3.2V, and the corresponding nominal voltage of the battery cluster 10 is 3.2*240=768V. The battery cell overvoltage threshold is 3.75V, and the corresponding battery cluster 10 overvoltage protection threshold is 3.75*240=900V; the battery cell undervoltage threshold is 2.5V, and the corresponding battery cluster 10 undervoltage protection threshold is 2.5*240=600V. The selected power isolation sensor 20 can reduce the voltage of the battery cluster 10 by 100 times. For example, 768V is output as 7.68V through the power isolation sensor 20, and the corresponding undervoltage protection threshold and overvoltage protection threshold are reduced by 100 times to 6V and 9V, and the 6V and 9V voltages can be obtained by series resistor voltage division.

[0073] In some embodiments, the step of obtaining the overvoltage protection threshold and the undervoltage protection threshold of the battery cluster 10 includes:

[0074] Connect the first voltage-dividing resistor 71 and the second voltage-dividing resistor 72 in series between the preset voltages;

[0075] The voltage of the second voltage-dividing resistor 72 to ground is obtained as the overvoltage protection threshold.

[0076] Connect the third voltage-dividing resistor 73 and the fourth voltage-dividing resistor 74 connected in series between the preset voltages;

[0077] The voltage of the fourth voltage-dividing resistor 74 to ground is obtained as the under-voltage protection threshold.

[0078] In this embodiment, the setting of the overvoltage protection threshold and the undervoltage protection threshold is achieved through multiple voltage-dividing resistors. Specifically, the first voltage-dividing resistor 71 (5kΩ) and the second voltage-dividing resistor 72 (3kΩ) are connected in series between the DC 24V voltage, and the voltage of the second voltage-dividing resistor 72 to the ground is 9V, corresponding to the overvoltage protection threshold. The third voltage-dividing resistor 73 (3kΩ) and the fourth voltage-dividing resistor 74 (13kΩ) are connected in series between the DC 24V voltage, and the voltage of the fourth voltage-dividing resistor 74 to the ground is 6V, corresponding to the undervoltage protection threshold.

[0079] In some embodiments, the step of comparing the first output voltage with the overvoltage protection threshold and outputting the first pulse voltage includes:

[0080] When the first output voltage is higher than the overvoltage protection threshold, the output first pulse voltage is a first high-level pulse voltage;

[0081] When the first output voltage is lower than the overvoltage protection threshold, the output first pulse voltage is a first low-level pulse voltage.

[0082] Specifically, when the battery cluster 10 is over-voltage protected, the output voltage of the power isolation sensor 20 is compared with the over-voltage protection threshold (9V) through the voltage comparator 30. If the output voltage of the power isolation sensor 20 is higher than the over-voltage protection threshold (9V), the first pulse voltage output by the power isolation sensor 20 is the first high-level pulse voltage (24V), otherwise the first pulse voltage output is the first low-level pulse voltage (0V). In this embodiment, by comparing the first output voltage with the over-voltage protection threshold and controlling the output first pulse voltage, serious safety accidents such as thermal runaway, fire and even explosion caused by over-voltage are prevented, and the safety of the energy storage device and the surrounding environment is guaranteed; thereby, problems such as plate deformation and active material loss inside the battery due to excessive voltage are avoided, and the good performance of the battery is maintained and its service life is extended.

[0083] In some embodiments, the step of comparing the first output voltage with the under-voltage protection threshold and outputting the second pulse voltage comprises:

[0084] When the first output voltage is lower than the undervoltage protection threshold, the output second pulse voltage is a second high level pulse voltage;

[0085] When the first output voltage is higher than the under-voltage protection threshold, the output second pulse voltage is a second low-level pulse voltage.

[0086] Specifically, when the battery cluster 10 is under-voltage protected, the first output voltage of the power isolation sensor 20 is compared with the under-voltage protection threshold (6V) through the voltage comparator 30. If the first output voltage of the power isolation sensor 20 is lower than the under-voltage protection threshold (6V), the second pulse voltage output by the power isolation sensor 20 is a high-level pulse voltage (24V), otherwise the second low-level pulse voltage (0V) is output. In this embodiment, the first output voltage is compared with the under-voltage protection threshold, and the output first pulse voltage is controlled to avoid the battery from being unable to provide sufficient power due to under-voltage, ensure that the energy storage device can supply power to the external load as required, and ensure the stable operation of the entire energy storage system.

[0087] In some embodiments, the step of performing OR gate logic judgment on the first pulse voltage and the second pulse voltage respectively includes:

[0088] When the first pulse voltage or the second pulse voltage is a high-level pulse voltage, the OR gate outputs a high-level pulse voltage;

[0089] When the first pulse voltage and the second pulse voltage are both low-level pulse voltages, the OR gate outputs a low-level pulse voltage.

[0090] The first pulse voltage and the second pulse voltage are judged by the OR gate logic in the prior art; if the first pulse voltage (or the second pulse voltage) is a high-level pulse voltage, the diode 41 on the corresponding pulse circuit is controlled to be turned on, and the OR gate outputs a 24V high-level pulse voltage; when the first pulse voltage and the second pulse voltage are both low-level pulse voltages, the diodes 41 on the two pulse circuits are reversely cut off, and the OR gate outputs a 0V low-level pulse voltage.

[0091] In some embodiments, the step of controlling the tripping circuit where the circuit breaker 50 of the energy storage device is located to be turned on or off according to the judgment result includes:

[0092] When the OR gate outputs a high-level pulse voltage, the tripping circuit where the circuit breaker 50 is located is controlled to be turned on, so that the circuit breaker 50 is tripped;

[0093] When the OR gate outputs a low-level pulse voltage, the tripping circuit where the circuit breaker 50 is located is controlled to be disconnected, so that the circuit breaker 50 remains in the working state.

[0094] In this embodiment, the tripping circuit of the AC molded case circuit breaker 50 at the incoming line of the energy storage device is controlled by driving the relay 60 through an OR gate circuit. If the OR gate outputs a 24V high-level pulse voltage (the battery cluster 10 is undervoltage or overvoltage), the coil of the intermediate relay 60 is turned on, the normally open switch of the relay 60 is closed, the tripping circuit where the molded case circuit breaker 50 is located is turned on, and the molded case circuit breaker 50 is tripped. If the OR gate outputs a 0V low-level pulse voltage (normal voltage of the battery cluster 10), the coil of the intermediate relay 60 is not turned on, the normally open switch of the intermediate relay 60 is opened, the tripping circuit of the molded case circuit breaker 50 is not turned on, and the molded case circuit breaker 50 maintains its original state.

[0095] In a second aspect, the present application provides an undervoltage and overvoltage backup protection system for a battery cluster 10 of an energy storage device, which adopts the undervoltage and overvoltage backup protection method for the battery cluster 10 as described above. The undervoltage and overvoltage backup protection system for the battery cluster 10 includes a power isolation sensor 20, an OR gate component 40, two voltage comparators 30 and a circuit breaker 50; the power isolation sensor 20 has two input ends, which are respectively connected to the positive terminal and the negative terminal of the battery cluster 10, and the output end of the power isolation sensor 20 outputs two pulse circuits respectively; the OR gate component 40 includes two diodes 41, and the two diodes 41 are respectively arranged on the two pulse circuits; the two voltage comparators 30 are respectively arranged on the two pulse circuits and connected to the input ends of the two diodes 41; the circuit breaker 50 is connected to the output end of the OR gate component 40 through a tripping circuit.

[0096] The protection system of the present application adopts the protection method in the above embodiment when performing overvoltage or undervoltage protection, which can detect and handle undervoltage / overvoltage problems, reduce system shutdowns caused by battery failures, and improve the overall reliability of the energy storage system; maintain the voltage of the battery cluster 10 within a reasonable range, and ensure that the entire energy storage system can stably and normally perform related work processes such as charging.

[0097] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the undervoltage and overvoltage backup protection system of the battery cluster 10 further includes a first voltage-dividing resistor 71 and a second voltage-dividing resistor 72 connected in series between the preset DC voltages, and a third voltage-dividing resistor 73 and a fourth voltage-dividing resistor 74 connected in series.

[0098] In one embodiment, a first voltage-dividing resistor 71 and a second voltage-dividing resistor 72 are connected in series and are connected to a 24V DC voltage. The resistance of the first voltage-dividing resistor 71 is 5kΩ, and the resistance of the second voltage-dividing resistor 72 is 3kΩ. One end of the first voltage-dividing resistor 71 is connected to the 24V voltage, and the other end is connected to the second voltage-dividing resistor 72. One end of the second voltage-dividing resistor 72 is grounded. The connection between the first voltage-dividing resistor 71 and the second voltage-dividing resistor 72 is connected to the negative electrode of the voltage comparator 30. Then, the voltage of the second voltage-dividing resistor 72 to ground is 9V, corresponding to the overvoltage protection threshold. The third voltage-dividing resistor 73 and the fourth voltage-dividing resistor 74 are connected in series and are connected to a 24V DC voltage. The resistance of the third voltage-dividing resistor 73 is 3kΩ, and the resistance of the fourth voltage-dividing resistor 74 is 13kΩ. One end of the third voltage-dividing resistor 73 is connected to the voltage end of the 24V DC voltage, and the other end is connected to the fourth voltage-dividing resistor 74. One end of the fourth voltage-dividing resistor 74 is grounded. The connection between the third voltage-dividing resistor 73 and the fourth voltage-dividing resistor 74 is connected to the positive electrode of the voltage protector, so the voltage of the fourth voltage-dividing resistor 74 to ground is 6V, which corresponds to the undervoltage protection threshold.
