Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of dynamically reconfigurable battery energy storage technology, and in particular to a method for constructing an energy storage system. Background Technology
[0002] Existing technologies offer dynamic reconfigurable battery energy storage technology with digital energy, which changes the traditional fixed series-parallel connection method of individual batteries in energy storage systems. Its main strategy is to connect a corresponding control unit in parallel to each individual battery to form a control unit. The control unit controls the time when the individual battery is connected to the charging and discharging circuit, thereby achieving efficient utilization of battery energy and ensuring battery safety. It fundamentally solves the safety and economic problems of energy storage systems. Dynamic reconfigurable battery energy storage technology accepts inconsistencies in battery production and composition, and ensures full utilization of battery energy by optimizing battery use.
[0003] For economic, energy utilization and environmental protection reasons, in the process of building energy storage systems, there are situations where battery clusters (including multiple individual cells) of different brands and models are mixed and used together, as well as new and old battery clusters. Due to the different internal resistance of different battery clusters, bias current will be introduced when the battery clusters are charged and discharged. For example, high-capacity battery clusters cannot play their maximum role under the influence of low-capacity batteries, and may also damage the batteries. It is not economical to use them. In particular, the uncontrollable current makes the safety extremely poor, and may even cause serious safety accidents such as explosion, bulging and leakage.
[0004] Therefore, during the construction of energy storage systems, the different electrochemical systems, capacities, manufacturers, batches, and aging levels of individual cells within the system can affect the overall energy storage system. Although dynamic reconfigurable battery energy storage technology can optimize the balanced use of each control unit in the energy storage system through scheduling methods, the construction of energy storage systems in existing technologies mainly relies on simple capacity and voltage matching, thus ignoring other important characteristics of individual cells, such as internal resistance, temperature characteristics, and cycle life. This approach fails to fully consider the diversity and complexity of individual cells, resulting in inconsistencies among the control units within the energy storage system. Consequently, during the use of the constructed energy storage system, the significant initial inconsistencies among the control units reduce key indicators such as the lifespan and throughput of the energy storage system. This leads to problems such as overcharging, over-discharging, and thermal runaway during operation, thereby reducing the safety and reliability of the energy storage system and further significantly impacting its economic efficiency.

[0005] In view of this, the purpose of this application is to provide at least one method for constructing an energy storage system. This method considers various characteristics of individual cells and uses multi-dimensional control factors to screen individual cells for the construction of a target energy storage system. This enables precise control and optimized configuration of the energy storage system, improves the utilization efficiency of the energy storage system, avoids over-configuration of the target energy storage system, reduces system configuration costs, improves the utilization efficiency of individual cells, extends the lifespan of the energy storage system, and thus improves the economy and reliability of the energy storage system.

[0050] For economic, energy utilization and environmental protection reasons, in the process of building energy storage systems, there are situations where battery clusters (including multiple individual cells) of different brands and models are mixed and used together, as well as new and old battery clusters. Due to the different internal resistance of different battery clusters, bias current will be introduced when the battery clusters are charged and discharged. For example, high-capacity battery clusters cannot play their maximum role under the influence of low-capacity batteries, and may also damage the batteries. It is not economical to use them. In particular, the uncontrollable current makes the safety extremely poor, and may even cause serious safety accidents such as explosion, bulging and leakage.
[0051] Therefore, during the construction of energy storage systems, the different electrochemical systems, capacities, manufacturers, batches, and aging levels of individual cells within the system can affect the overall energy storage system. Although dynamic reconfigurable battery energy storage technology can optimize the balanced use of each control unit in the energy storage system through scheduling methods, the construction of energy storage systems in existing technologies mainly relies on simple capacity and voltage matching, thus ignoring other important characteristics of individual cells, such as internal resistance, temperature characteristics, and cycle life. This approach fails to fully consider the diversity and complexity of individual cells, resulting in inconsistencies among the control units within the energy storage system. Consequently, during the use of the constructed energy storage system, the significant initial inconsistencies among the control units reduce key indicators such as the lifespan and throughput of the energy storage system. This leads to problems such as overcharging, over-discharging, and thermal runaway during operation, thereby reducing the safety and reliability of the energy storage system and further significantly impacting its economic efficiency.
[0052] Based on this, this application provides a method for building an energy storage system. By using multi-dimensional control factors to screen individual battery cells for the target energy storage system, the method mitigates consistency issues caused by differences in individual battery cells, avoids over-configuration of the target energy storage system, reduces system configuration costs, and improves the utilization efficiency of individual battery cells. Specifically, the method is as follows:
[0053] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1 A flowchart illustrating a method for constructing an energy storage system according to an embodiment of this application is shown. Figure 1As shown, the method provided in this application embodiment includes the following steps:
[0054] S100: Obtain the initial state information of the battery, basic information of the battery, and energy storage demand data corresponding to the target energy storage system for the single battery cell to be used.
[0055] S200: Based on the energy storage demand data and the initial state information and basic information of the battery corresponding to the single battery to be used, select multiple candidate single batteries that meet the energy storage demand data from multiple single batteries to be used.
[0056] S300 calculates the multi-dimensional control factor for each candidate cell based on demand energy storage data, initial state information of the cells corresponding to the candidate cells, basic information of the cells, and type of the target energy storage system, from the dimensions of cell type, cell energy, and cell power.
[0057] S400: Based on the multi-dimensional control factors corresponding to each candidate single cell, a target energy storage system is constructed.
[0058] In step S100, the basic battery information includes, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: battery type, battery rated capacity, and battery rated power. The initial state information of the battery includes, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: battery state of charge (SOC), battery state of health (SOH), and battery state of power (SOP). The energy storage demand data is given in advance according to the usage requirements of the target energy storage system. Specifically, the energy storage demand data includes, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: system lifetime (SOHsys), system rated capacity (Esys), system rated power (Psys), system output requirements, and system structure design.
[0059] In step S200, it is necessary to first screen multiple individual cells to be used. Specifically, based on the initial state information and basic information of the individual cells to be used, multiple candidate individual cells that meet the system lifespan SOHsys and system rated power Psys are selected from multiple individual cells to be used.
[0060] In steps S300 to S400, the multidimensional control factor reflects the matching degree between the candidate single cell and the target energy storage system to be built in different dimensions (including at least the battery type dimension, battery energy dimension and battery power dimension). The smaller the multidimensional control factor, the more stable the target energy storage system built using the candidate single cell is.
[0061] In steps S100 to S400, the required energy storage data of the target energy storage system and the initial state information and basic information of the individual battery to be used are combined to calculate the corresponding multi-dimensional control factor. Since the multi-dimensional control factor reflects the overall consistency between the individual battery and the target energy storage system, this application uses the multi-dimensional control factor to screen the individual batteries used to build the target energy storage system, optimizes the balanced use of each control unit in the energy storage system, effectively reduces the performance degradation caused by the initial inconsistency of the energy storage units, and thus improves the key indicators such as the lifespan and throughput of the energy storage system.
[0062] Furthermore, the multi-dimensional control factors in this application enable the screening of single cells from different electrochemical systems, capacities, manufacturers, batches, and aging levels, making the solution in this application highly adaptable and flexible.
[0063] Specifically, the energy storage system includes uniphase energy storage system and multiphase energy storage system. The target energy storage system is a uniphase energy storage system or a multiphase energy storage system. The multidimensional control factor is a three-dimensional control factor corresponding to the uniphase energy storage system or a two-dimensional control factor corresponding to the multiphase energy storage system.
[0064] In a preferred embodiment, if the target energy storage system is a single-phase energy storage system, step S400 includes:
[0065] Based on the energy storage demand data, the initial state information of the candidate cells, and the basic information of the cells, the three-dimensional control factor corresponding to each candidate cell is calculated from the dimensions of cell type, cell energy, and cell power. Based on the three-dimensional control factor corresponding to each candidate cell, a single-phase energy storage system is constructed.
[0066] Preferably, this application calculates the consistency between the candidate single-cell battery and the single-phase energy storage system to be created in terms of battery type, battery energy, and battery power by using demand storage data and the initial state information and basic information of each candidate single-cell battery. The three-dimensional control factor is then calculated, which reflects the overall consistency between the candidate single-cell battery and the single-phase energy storage system to be created. Based on the three-dimensional control factor corresponding to each candidate single-cell battery, the corresponding single-phase energy storage system is further analyzed and constructed.
[0067] In a preferred embodiment, the three-dimensional control factor corresponding to each candidate single cell is calculated in the following manner:
[0068] Based on the demand storage data and the basic battery information corresponding to the candidate single battery cells, the battery type dimension factor is calculated. Based on the demand storage data and the initial state information of the candidate single battery cells, the battery energy dimension factor and the battery power dimension factor are calculated respectively. According to the first dimension control weight corresponding to the battery type dimension factor, the second dimension control weight corresponding to the battery energy dimension factor, and the third dimension control weight corresponding to the battery power dimension factor, the battery type dimension factor, battery energy dimension factor, and battery power dimension factor are weighted and calculated to determine the three-dimensional control factor corresponding to the candidate single battery cell.
[0069] For details, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 This illustration shows a process for determining the three-dimensional control factors corresponding to candidate battery cells, as provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 2 As shown, in the process of calculating the three-dimensional control factors corresponding to candidate battery cells in this application, the battery type dimension factor Kbt, the battery energy dimension factor Kbe, and the battery power dimension factor Kbp are calculated from the perspectives of battery type dimension, battery energy dimension, and battery power dimension. Then, the battery type dimension factor Kbt, battery energy dimension factor Kbe, and battery power dimension factor Kbp are weighted and calculated using the pre-given first dimension control weight, second dimension control weight, and third dimension control weight, respectively, to obtain the three-dimensional control factors.
[0070] The battery type dimension factor reflects the consistency between the candidate single cell and the single-phase energy storage system to be built in terms of battery type. The battery energy dimension factor reflects the consistency between the candidate single cell and the single-phase energy storage system to be built in terms of battery energy. The battery power dimension factor reflects the consistency between the candidate single cell and the single-phase energy storage system to be built in terms of battery power.
[0071] In one example, the three-dimensional control factor for each candidate cell is calculated using the following formula:
[0072] K1=Kbt×k1+Kbe×k2+Kbp×k3 (1)
[0073] In formula (1), K1 represents the three-dimensional control factor, k1 represents the first dimension control weight, k2 represents the second dimension control weight, and k3 represents the third dimension control weight. Among them, k1+k2+k3=1, and k1, k2 and k3 are given or adjusted according to actual needs.
[0074] Preferably, the energy storage demand data includes the maximum output voltage of the target energy storage system, the rated energy of the system, the number of system batteries and the redundancy design factor, and the basic battery information includes the rated voltage and rated energy of the individual battery cells.
[0075] In a preferred embodiment, the battery type dimension factor is calculated in the following manner:
[0076] The system obtains the number of candidate cells, the number of cells of different types and the number of cells with different rated energies among the candidate cells. Based on the system's maximum output voltage, system rated energy, number of cells, and redundancy design coefficient, it calculates the equivalent voltage and equivalent energy for each candidate cell, calculates the voltage relative error between the rated voltage and equivalent voltage of the candidate cell, and calculates the energy relative error between the rated energy and equivalent energy of the candidate cell. For candidate cells of the same type, it determines the first proportion of that type of cell among all candidate cells based on the number of cells of that type and the total number of candidate cells. For candidate cells of the same capacity, it determines the second proportion of that capacity among all candidate cells based on the number of cells of that capacity and the total number of candidate cells. The voltage relative error, energy relative error, first proportion, and second proportion are weighted according to the type weight coefficient to determine the battery type dimension factor.
[0077] In one example, such as Figure 2 As shown, in the process of calculating the battery type dimension factor, the battery type dimension factor Kbt is mainly determined based on the rated voltage V0, rated energy E0, the first proportion Pbt of the same type of single cell in all candidate single cells, and the second proportion Pbe of the same capacity in all candidate single cells.
[0078] In a preferred example, the equivalent voltage and equivalent energy of each candidate cell are first calculated based on the system's maximum output voltage, the number of system cells, and the redundancy design factor. Then, the voltage pair error and energy relative error are determined based on the rated voltage and rated energy, equivalent voltage and equivalent energy of the candidate cells. Finally, based on the total number of candidate cells Ntotal, the number of candidate cells of the same type Nbatt, and the number of cells of the same capacity Nbate, the first proportion of cells of the same type in the total number of candidate cells Pbt = Nbatt / Ntotal and the second proportion of cells of the same capacity in the total number of candidate cells Pbe = Nbate / Ntotal are determined respectively.
[0079] The equivalent voltage for each candidate cell is determined using the following formula:
[0080] Vave=Vspeak×(1+n) / N (2)
[0081] In formula (2), Vave represents the equivalent voltage, Vspeak represents the maximum output voltage of the system, n represents the redundancy design factor, and N represents the number of candidate single cells.
[0082] The equivalent energy is determined using the following formula:
[0083] Eave = Esys / N (3)
[0084] In formula (3), Eave represents the equivalent energy and Esys represents the rated energy of the system.
[0085] The voltage relative error Vre is determined by the following formula:
[0086] Vre = (V0 - Vave) / Vave.
[0087] The relative energy error Ere is determined using the following formula:
[0088] Ere = (E0 - Eave) / Eave.
[0089] Furthermore, the type weight coefficients include the first type weight corresponding to the voltage relative error, the second type weight corresponding to the energy relative error, the third type weight corresponding to the first proportion, and the fourth type weight corresponding to the second proportion.
[0090] Preferably, the battery type dimension factor is determined by weighting the voltage relative error (Vave), energy relative error (Eave), first proportion (Pbt), and second proportion (Pbe) according to type weights. Specifically, this includes:
[0091] Based on the relative voltage error and its corresponding first type weight, and the relative energy error and its corresponding second type weight, the cost dimension control factor is calculated. Based on the first proportion and its corresponding third type weight, and the second proportion and its corresponding fourth type weight, the consistency dimension control factor is calculated. The sum of the cost dimension control factor and the consistency dimension control factor is determined as the battery type dimension factor.
[0092] The battery type dimension factor is determined by two parts: a cost dimension control factor and a consistency dimension control factor. In a preferred example, the cost dimension control factor is determined by the following formula:
[0093] kcos=kbtv×Vre 2 +kbte×Ere 2 (4)
[0094] In formula (4), kcos represents the cost dimension control factor, kbtv represents the first type of weight, Vre represents the voltage relative error, kbte represents the second type of weight, and Ere represents the energy relative error.
[0095] Specifically, a smaller kcos indicates that the candidate single cell is closer to the energy storage requirements of the target energy storage system. By controlling kcos, the problem of over-configuration of the target energy storage system due to the selection of single cells can be avoided, thereby increasing the system cost.
[0096] In another preferred example, the consistency dimension control factor is determined by the following formula:
[0097] kcon = kbtpt × (1 - Pbt) 2 +kbtpe×(1-Pbe) 2 (5)
[0098] In formula (5), kcon represents the consistency dimension control factor, kbtpt represents the third type weight, Pbt represents the first proportion, kbtpe represents the fourth type weight, and Pbe represents the second proportion.
[0099] kcon is used to constrain the target energy storage system to use the same type or capacity of single cells as much as possible. By adjusting the value of kcon, the initial inconsistency of the target energy storage system can be reduced, which can reduce the difficulty of system optimization and scheduling, and improve the system's safety and economy.
[0100] In a preferred embodiment, the battery type dimension factor Kbt is determined by the following formula:
[0101] Kbt=kbtv×Vre 2 +kbte×Ere 2 +kbtpt×(1-Pbt) 2 +kbtpe
[0102] ×(1-Pbe) 2
[0103] In a specific example, such as Figure 2 In calculating the battery energy dimension factors, the main factors considered are the state of charge consistency factor Csoc, the health status consistency factor Csoh, the energy status consistency factor Csoe, and the lifetime consistency factor Vsoh.
[0104] In a preferred embodiment, the battery energy dimension factor is calculated in the following manner:
[0105] Based on the initial state information and energy storage demand data of each candidate cell, the state of charge consistency factor, health state consistency factor, energy state consistency factor, and lifetime consistency factor of the candidate cell are determined. The state of charge consistency factor, health state consistency factor, energy state consistency factor, and lifetime consistency factor are then weighted according to the first energy weight corresponding to the state of charge consistency factor, the second energy weight corresponding to the health state consistency factor, the third energy weight corresponding to the energy state consistency factor, and the fourth energy weight corresponding to the lifetime consistency factor to determine the battery energy dimension factor.
[0106] Preferably, the initial state information of the battery includes the state of charge (SOC), state of health (SOH), and state of energy (SOE) of the individual cells, and the energy storage demand data also includes the system lifetime (SOHsys).
[0107] In a preferred embodiment, the state of charge consistency factor, state of health consistency factor, state of energy consistency factor, and lifetime consistency factor for each candidate cell are further determined in the following ways:
[0108] Based on the state of charge (SOC), state of health (SOH), and state of energy (SOE) of each candidate cell, calculate the average SOC, average SOH, and average SOE of all candidate cells. Then, determine the SOC consistency factor for each candidate cell based on its SOC and average SOH. Finally, determine the SOE consistency factor based on the health status and average health status of each candidate cell.
[0109] In one specific embodiment, it is necessary to calculate the average values of the State of Charge (SOC), State of Health (SOH), and State of Energy (SOE) for all candidate individual cells to obtain the average values of SOCave, SOHave, and SOEave. Then, for each candidate cell, further calculations are performed:
[0110] State of charge consistency factor Csoc = (SOC - SOCave) 2 ;
[0111] Health status consistency factor Csoh=(SOH-SOHave) 2 ;
[0112] Energy state consistency factor Csoe = (SOE - SOEave) 2;
[0113] Lifetime consistency factor Vsoh = (SOHave - SOHsys) 2 .
[0114] Furthermore, the battery energy dimension factor Kbe is determined using the following formula:
[0115] Kbe=kbec×Csoc+kbeh×Csoh+kbee×Csoe+kbehv×Vsoh(7)
[0116] In formula (7), kbec represents the first energy weight, kbeh represents the second energy weight, kbee represents the third energy weight, and kbehv represents the fourth energy weight. kbec, kbeh, kbee, and kbehv are all constant coefficients in the interval (0,1). kbec+kbeh+kbee+kbehv=1. The magnitudes of kbec, kbeh, kbee, and kbehv are given in advance according to the target energy storage requirements.
[0117] Among them, kbec×Csoc+kbeh×Csoh+kbee×Csoe is used to characterize the consistency of individual cells. The smaller the result, the closer the candidate individual cell is to the median of the cell.
[0118] kbehv×Vsoh is used to indicate the degree of matching between the lifespan of a single cell and the lifespan of the system. The smaller the kbehv×Vsoh value, the closer the single cell is to the lifespan requirements of the target energy storage system.
[0119] like Figure 2 In calculating the battery power dimension factor, the main factor to consider is the battery power SOP. The energy storage demand data also includes the battery rated demand power Psys, and the battery initial state information also includes the battery power SOP.
[0120] In a preferred embodiment, the battery power dimension factor is determined in the following manner:
[0121] Based on the rated power demand Psys and the redundancy design factor n, calculate the equivalent power Pbat corresponding to the candidate single cell, calculate the difference between the battery power SOP and the equivalent power Pbat corresponding to the candidate single cell, calculate the ratio between the difference and the equivalent power Pbat, and determine the square of the ratio as the battery power dimension factor Kbp corresponding to the candidate single cell.
[0122] Preferably, the equivalent power Pbat corresponding to the candidate single cell is Psys×(1+n) / N.
[0123] In this application, the SOP (Sum of Power) of all candidate cells is greater than the equivalent power Pbat. The closer the SOP of a candidate cell is to the equivalent power Pbat, the higher the cost-effectiveness of selecting that candidate cell to construct the target energy storage system. Therefore, the battery power dimension factor Kbp = [(SOP - Pbat) / Pbat] 2 .
[0124] The smaller the battery power dimension factor (Kbp), the lower the configuration cost of the target energy storage system.
[0125] In a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 A flowchart illustrating the construction steps of a single-phase energy storage system according to an embodiment of this application is shown. Figure 3 As shown, the steps to construct a single-phase energy storage system based on the three-dimensional control factors corresponding to each candidate cell include:
[0126] S4001. Sort the candidate single cells according to the three-dimensional control factors.
[0127] S4002. According to the sorting results, select multiple recombined single cells from multiple candidate single cells.
[0128] S4003. Based on the initial state information and basic information of each recombined cell, calculate the first actual energy storage data of the single-phase energy storage system formed by multiple recombined cells.
[0129] S4004. Determine whether the first actual energy storage data matches the required energy storage data corresponding to the single-phase energy storage system.
[0130] S4005. If the first actual energy storage data does not match the required energy storage data corresponding to the unidirectional energy storage system, adjust the weights of each item used to calculate the three-dimensional control factor, and return to recalculate the three-dimensional control factor corresponding to each candidate single cell.
[0131] S4006. If the first actual energy storage data matches the required energy storage data of the single-phase energy storage system, then for each recombined cell, the recombined cell is connected in parallel with a corresponding control module to form a control unit.
[0132] S4007. All control units are connected in series to form a single-phase energy storage system.
[0133] In one specific embodiment, in steps S4001 to S4007, after calculating the three-dimensional control factor corresponding to each candidate single cell, the three-dimensional control factors corresponding to each candidate single cell are sorted from smallest to largest. According to the sorting result, the top n candidate single cells are selected as the recombined single cells corresponding to the single-phase energy storage system. Then, based on the battery initial state information and battery basic information corresponding to each recombined single cell, the first actual energy storage data corresponding to each single-phase energy storage system is calculated. The first actual energy storage data includes multiple first actual output data, which include, but are not limited to, at least one of the following: multiple recombined cells The system's actual capacity, actual energy, actual power, and actual lifespan are determined for each single-phase energy storage system formed by the battery. The energy storage demand data includes the first demand output data corresponding to each first actual output data. It is determined whether each first actual output data meets the corresponding first demand output data. If any first actual output data does not meet the corresponding first demand output data, the first dimension control weight, second dimension control weight, third dimension control weight, type weight coefficient, first energy weight, second energy weight, third energy weight, and fourth energy weight are adjusted, and the three-dimensional control factors corresponding to each candidate single cell are recalculated.
[0134] As can be seen from steps S4001 to S4007, this application matches the actual energy storage data and demand output data corresponding to multiple selected recombinant single cells, and determines whether to use recombinant single cells to complete the construction of the target energy storage system based on the matching results. This can avoid over-configuration of the target energy storage system, reduce system configuration costs, and improve the utilization efficiency of single cells.
[0135] Please see Figure 4 , Figure 4 A schematic diagram of a single-phase energy storage system connection method provided in an embodiment of this application is shown. Figure 4 As shown, in steps S4006 to S4007, the recombined single cell is regarded as an energy storage unit. If it is determined that each first actual output data meets the corresponding first demand output data, then for each recombined single cell, the recombined single cell is connected in parallel with a corresponding control module to form a control unit. Then, each control unit is connected in series to form a corresponding single-phase energy storage system. The control module is an H-bridge.
[0136] Returning to step S400, if the target energy storage system is a multiphase energy storage system, then step S400 includes:
[0137] Multiple candidate cells are grouped according to their battery type to obtain multiple battery type sets. For each battery type set, the candidate cells within that set are split according to different rated capacities to obtain multiple battery capacity subsets corresponding to that battery type set. Based on the initial state information of the candidate cells, the two-dimensional control factors of the candidate cells are calculated from the dimensions of battery energy and battery power. Based on the two-dimensional control factors of each candidate cell, a multiphase energy storage system is constructed.
[0138] In a preferred embodiment, the multiphase energy storage system includes a three-phase energy storage system; please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 5 , Figure 5 This illustration shows a schematic diagram of a candidate single-cell battery being divided into groups according to an embodiment of this application. First, multiple candidate single-cell batteries (Bat) are divided into multiple battery type sets based on battery type, such as... Figure 5 As shown, for example, the sets are divided into set a, set b, and set c. Then, for each battery type, each set is further grouped according to its rated capacity, resulting in multiple battery capacity subsets corresponding to each battery type set, such as... Figure 5 Candidate single-cell batteries Bat in set a are grouped according to different rated capacities to obtain subsets aa, ab, ac, etc. Similarly, sets b and c can be grouped in the same way (not shown in the figure).
[0139] Furthermore, during the construction of a multiphase energy storage system, the two-dimensional control factor corresponding to the selected individual cell is calculated based on the initial state information of the candidate individual cell. The calculation method of the two-dimensional control factor is different from that of the three-dimensional control factor. The calculation of the two-dimensional control factor does not need to consider the battery type dimension, but only the battery energy dimension and the battery power dimension.
[0140] In a preferred embodiment, the two-dimensional control factor corresponding to the candidate single cell is determined by the following method:
[0141] Based on the demand storage data and the initial state information of the candidate single cells, the battery energy dimension factor and the battery power dimension factor are calculated respectively. According to the second dimension control weight corresponding to the battery energy dimension factor and the third dimension control weight corresponding to the battery power dimension factor, the battery energy dimension factor and the battery power dimension factor are weighted and calculated to determine the two-dimensional control factor corresponding to the candidate single cell.
[0142] Please see Figure 6 , Figure 6 A schematic diagram illustrating a two-dimensional control factor calculation process provided in an embodiment of this application is shown. Figure 6As shown, the two-dimensional control factor kb is obtained by weighting the battery energy dimension factor Kbe and the battery power dimension factor Kbe. Specifically, the two-dimensional control factor kb = Kbe × k2 + Kbp × k3. The determination method of the battery energy dimension factor and the battery power dimension factor is the same as that of the battery energy dimension factor and the battery power dimension factor in the single-phase energy storage system, and will not be elaborated here.
[0143] In a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 7 , Figure 7 A flowchart illustrating a method for creating a multiphase energy storage system according to an embodiment of this application is shown. Figure 7 As shown, a multiphase energy storage system is constructed in the following manner:
[0144] S5001. For each battery capacity subset, according to the two-dimensional control factor corresponding to each candidate single cell in the battery capacity subset, divide the battery capacity subset into multiple candidate battery groups and determine the comprehensive control factor corresponding to each candidate battery group.
[0145] S5002. Sort the candidate battery packs according to the comprehensive control factors.
[0146] S5003. Based on the sorting results, select multiple target candidate battery packs from multiple candidate battery packs.
[0147] S5004. Based on the initial state information and basic information of each candidate cell in each target candidate battery pack, calculate the second actual energy storage data of the multiphase energy storage system formed by the target candidate battery pack.
[0148] S5005. Determine whether the second actual energy storage data meets the energy storage requirements of the multiphase energy storage system.
[0149] S5006. If the second actual energy storage data does not meet the required energy storage data of the multiphase energy storage system, adjust the weights of each item used to calculate the comprehensive control factor, and return to recalculate the comprehensive control factor corresponding to each candidate battery pack.
[0150] S5007. If the second actual energy storage data meets the energy storage requirements of the multiphase energy storage system, then for each target candidate battery pack, each candidate battery cell in the target candidate battery pack is connected in parallel with a corresponding control module to form a control unit.
[0151] S5008. For each target candidate battery pack, cascade all control units corresponding to the target candidate battery pack to form a corresponding single-phase energy storage system.
[0152] S5009. The single-phase energy storage system built by each target candidate battery pack is regarded as each phase in the multi-phase energy storage system, and the corresponding single-phase energy storage systems are connected together by means of star connection or delta connection to form a multi-phase energy storage system.
[0153] In step S5001, the multiple candidate battery packs corresponding to each subset of battery capacity and the comprehensive control factor corresponding to each candidate battery pack are determined in the following manner:
[0154] Each candidate cell within the battery capacity subset is sorted according to the two-dimensional control factor. Based on the sorting results and the corresponding number of phases in the multiphase energy storage system, the multiple candidate cells corresponding to the battery capacity subset are divided into multiple candidate battery groups. For each candidate battery group, the average of the two-dimensional control factors corresponding to each candidate cell within the candidate battery group is calculated to determine the target two-dimensional control factor corresponding to the candidate battery group. For each candidate battery group, the comprehensive control factor corresponding to the candidate battery group is calculated based on the target two-dimensional control factor corresponding to the candidate battery group, the basic battery information corresponding to the candidate cells within the candidate battery group, and the energy storage demand data.
[0155] In one specific embodiment, return Figure 5 Taking subset aa as an example, the multiphase energy storage system is a three-phase energy storage system. Based on the two-dimensional control factor, the candidate single cell Bat in subset aa is sorted from small to large to obtain the sorting result of the candidate single cell. Bat1, Ba2, ... are divided into candidate battery groups BATC1, BATC2 and BATC3 according to the sorting result. The number of multiple candidate battery groups is equal to the number of phases in the multiphase energy storage system.
[0156] Then, for each candidate battery pack, the average of the two-dimensional control factors corresponding to all candidate cells in the candidate battery pack is determined as the target two-dimensional control factor corresponding to the candidate battery pack. Furthermore, for each candidate battery pack, the comprehensive control factor K2 corresponding to the candidate battery pack is calculated by combining the target two-dimensional control factor corresponding to the candidate battery pack, the basic battery information and energy storage demand data of each candidate cell in the candidate battery pack.
[0157] In a preferred embodiment, the comprehensive control factor for each candidate battery pack is calculated in the following manner:
[0158] Based on the demand storage data and the basic information of the target candidate cells in the alternative battery pack, the cost dimension control factor and consistency dimension control factor of the target candidate cells are calculated. The target candidate cell is any candidate cell in the alternative battery pack. The cost dimension control factor of the target candidate cell is determined as the target cost dimension control factor of the alternative battery pack, and the consistency dimension control factor of the target candidate cell is determined as the target consistency dimension control factor of the alternative battery pack. According to the first weight of the target two-dimensional control factor, the second weight of the cost dimension control factor, and the third weight of the consistency dimension control factor, the target two-dimensional control factor, the target cost dimension control factor, and the target consistency dimension control factor of the alternative battery pack are weighted and calculated to determine the comprehensive control factor of the alternative battery pack.
[0159] For further details, please refer to Figure 8 , Figure 8 A schematic diagram illustrating a comprehensive control factor determination method provided in an embodiment of this application is shown. For example... Figure 8 As shown, the comprehensive control factor corresponding to the candidate battery pack is determined by the target cost dimension control factor, target consistency dimension control factor and two-dimensional control factor corresponding to the candidate battery pack. The target cost dimension control factor and target consistency dimension control factor corresponding to the candidate battery pack can be calculated by any candidate battery cell in the candidate battery pack.
[0160] In specific implementation, such as Figure 5 As shown, for each battery capacity subset, all candidate cells within that subset have the same battery type and capacity. Therefore, the basic battery information for each candidate cell within the final candidate battery pack formed by dividing that subset is also identical. Thus, when calculating the target consistency dimension control factor and target cost dimension control factor for each battery capacity subset, the consistency dimension control factor and cost dimension control factor for any candidate cell in that candidate battery pack can be directly used as the target consistency dimension control factor and target cost dimension control factor for the entire candidate battery pack. Figure 8 As shown, for any candidate battery pack, the calculation of its target cost dimension control factor Kcoso depends on the rated voltage V0 and rated energy E0 of any candidate battery in the candidate battery pack, and the calculation of its target consistency dimension control factor Kcono depends on the first proportion Pbt of the same type of single cell in all candidate single cells and the second proportion Pbe of the same capacity single cell in all candidate single cells.
[0161] In this application, the calculation methods for the cost dimension control factor kcos and the consistency dimension control factor kcon corresponding to the candidate single cell have been described in the process of building a single-phase energy storage system, and will not be repeated here.
[0162] In one example, the comprehensive control factor K2 corresponding to the candidate battery pack is Kb×Q1+Kcoso×Q2+Kcono×Q3, where Q1 represents the first weight, Q2 represents the second weight, Q3 represents the third weight, Q1, Q2 and Q3 are all located in the (0,1) interval, and Q1+Q2+Q3=1.
[0163] In this application, whether constructing a single-phase energy storage system or a multi-phase energy storage system, the determination is made by calculating the multi-dimensional control factors corresponding to the candidate single cells. Since the multi-dimensional control factors integrate the consistency between the candidate single cells and the target energy storage system to be created in different dimensions, the selection of single cells based on the multi-dimensional control factors to form the final target energy storage system can make the constructed target energy storage system most in line with expectations, improve the utilization efficiency of single cells, and reduce resource waste.
[0164] return Figure 7 In steps S5002 to S5003, the candidate battery packs are sorted from smallest to largest according to the comprehensive control factor K2 corresponding to each candidate battery pack, and the top M candidate battery packs are selected as target candidate battery packs based on the sorting results, where M represents the number of phases in the multiphase energy storage system.
[0165] In steps S5004 to S5006, multiple target candidate battery packs correspond one-to-one with each phase of the multiphase energy storage system. Then, based on the initial state information and basic information of the batteries corresponding to each target candidate battery pack and the structure of the multiphase energy storage system, the second actual energy storage data formed by the target candidate battery packs is calculated. The second actual energy storage data includes multiple second actual output data, including but not limited to at least one of the following: capacity, energy, power, and lifespan corresponding to the target candidate battery pack. Then, each second actual output data is compared with the energy storage demand data of the corresponding phase of the multiphase energy storage system. If any second actual output data is inconsistent with the energy storage demand data of the corresponding phase, the weights used to calculate the comprehensive control factor are adjusted and updated, and then the comprehensive control factor corresponding to each candidate battery pack is recalculated.
[0166] Please see Figure 9 , Figure 9 A schematic diagram of a three-phase energy storage system according to an embodiment of this application is shown. Assuming the target energy storage system of this application is a three-phase energy storage system, including phase A, phase B, and phase C, as follows... Figure 9As shown, in steps S5007 to S5009, for each selected target candidate battery pack, the candidate single cells in the target candidate battery pack are connected to the corresponding control module in parallel to form a control unit. All control units in the target candidate battery pack are cascaded to form a corresponding single-phase energy storage system. The single-phase energy storage systems formed by all target candidate battery packs are connected to phase A, phase B, and phase C respectively. Then, all single-phase energy storage systems are connected together through star or delta connection to form a multi-phase energy storage system.
