Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of photovoltaic power generation and direct current energy storage, and particularly relates to a direct current power generation system and a control method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the increasing global energy demand and the growing emphasis on environmental protection, photovoltaic power generation as a clean and renewable energy generation method has received widespread attention. Currently, photovoltaic power generation systems mainly convert direct current into alternating current through inverters and then connect to the alternating current grid. However, with the increasing installation capacity of photovoltaic power generation systems, the capacity of the alternating current grid to accommodate photovoltaic energy gradually reaches its limit, and cannot meet the access requirements of more photovoltaic power generation systems, which to some extent limits the large-scale application of photovoltaic power generation.

[0003] At the same time, in the field of direct current transmission, compared with traditional alternating current transmission, direct current transmission has many advantages such as no reactive power problem and easy voltage stability control, and is theoretically more suitable for direct transmission and utilization of photovoltaic power generation. However, due to the voltage level of power electronic devices, the current mainstream direct current power generation system is mostly concentrated in the voltage level below 1500V. The lower voltage level limits the power supply distance and cannot realize large-capacity and long-distance power supply, making it difficult to meet the power supply requirements in some specific scenarios, such as medium and high voltage direct current power supply scenarios.

[0004] In addition, the existing direct current power generation system also faces some technical challenges in actual operation. On the one hand, the system voltage fluctuates greatly, affecting the stability and reliability of power supply, especially when the load changes greatly or the output power of the photovoltaic module is unstable, the voltage fluctuation problem is more prominent. On the other hand, the reliability of the system needs to be improved, when the photovoltaic module or the energy storage module fails, there is a lack of effective protection and bypass mechanism, which may cause the shutdown or damage of the whole system, increasing the maintenance cost and difficulty. Moreover, the cooperative control of photovoltaic modules and energy storage modules in traditional systems is not precise enough, and cannot fully exert the performance advantages of each component, further limiting the improvement of the overall efficiency and stability of the system.
