AI Technical Summary
The existing electrical main wiring structure of full-power variable speed pumped storage units has problems such as high equipment purchase and construction costs, large footprint, and insufficient operating efficiency and stability.
The electrical main wiring structure of the flexible full-power variable speed pumped storage unit includes a first main circuit and a DC excitation circuit. The DC excitation device with a bidirectional DC-DC topology is connected to the DC link of the main circuit. Combined with the converter with MMC and NPC topologies, a bypass circuit is configured to achieve constant speed and variable speed operation. A hybrid energy storage device is integrated to regulate the excitation voltage and power.
It significantly reduces equipment purchase and construction costs, reduces floor space, improves operating efficiency and stability, and can flexibly adjust active and reactive power, thereby improving the system's transient stability and frequency regulation capabilities.
