Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of energy storage cabinet structures, and particularly relates to a sodium-ion battery energy storage system. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of the new energy energy storage industry, industrial and commercial energy storage outdoor cabinets are increasingly favored by the market. During the power supply process of the energy storage cabinet, a large amount of heat is generated by the battery modules, especially in high-temperature environments. If the heat cannot be effectively dissipated, it will lead to a decrease in the service life of the battery and affect the normal use of the energy storage cabinet. In addition, the current heat dissipation methods for sodium-ion battery energy storage cabinets are usually air cooling or liquid cooling. However, both of these heat dissipation methods have their own advantages and disadvantages, and the heat dissipation effect of a single heat dissipation method is not good. Moreover, when different cooling methods are required, different energy storage cabinets need to be replaced, which reduces work efficiency and increases work costs. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a sodium-ion battery energy storage system that combines air cooling and liquid cooling to solve the above technical problems. Summary of the Utility Model
