[0025] Embodiment of a modular energy storage converter and booster integrated machine:
[0026] As Figure 2 shown, a modular energy storage converter and booster integrated machine of this embodiment includes a base and an energy storage converter located at one end of the base. It is characterized in that a cabin for accommodating a booster transformer and a grid connection unit is provided at the other end of the base. A booster transformer with its low voltage side connected to the AC side of the energy storage converter is provided at one end of the cabin close to the energy storage converter, and a grid connection unit is provided at a position close to the other end of the base in the cabin. The high voltage side of the booster transformer is connected to the main circuit copper busbar of the grid connection unit through a busbar. As Figure 4 shown, the dotted box in the figure shows each unit included in the modular energy storage converter and booster integrated machine of this embodiment.
[0027] Specifically, in this embodiment, the base is a preassembled base mechanism, on which the energy storage converter 1 and the cabin are installed. The preassembled base mechanism is responsible for completing the installation and fixation of the energy storage converter 1 and the cabin in the factory, so as to achieve the purpose of overall installation of the energy storage converter and booster on site, improve construction efficiency, ensure the assembly accuracy of the energy storage converter and booster, and reduce engineering costs.
[0028] In this embodiment, the energy storage converter 1 is responsible for connecting the energy storage battery and the low voltage side of the boost transformer 2 in the cabin, and performs the energy storage bidirectional conversion function by executing the control command of the integrated machine to realize the charging and discharging of the battery cluster.
[0029] In this embodiment, a low-voltage distribution unit for power supply, a measurement and control communication unit for monitoring the status of each unit, and a cooling system device for heat dissipation are also provided inside the cabin, wherein the low-voltage distribution unit and the measurement and control communication unit are integrated in the low-voltage cabinet 4.
[0030] In this embodiment, the energy storage converter 1 is responsible for connecting the energy storage battery and the low-voltage side of the step-up transformer 2 in the integrated cabin, and performs the energy storage bidirectional conversion function by executing the control commands of the measurement and control communication unit in the integrated machine, thereby realizing the charging and discharging of the energy storage battery.
[0031] The step-up transformer 2 is responsible for stepping up the low-voltage AC power output by the energy storage converter 1 and then connecting it to the grid through the grid-connected unit. Its integrated feature is that different built-in transformer modules can be selected according to the design requirements such as the capacity of the power station and the grid-connected voltage, thus realizing a flexible and convenient configuration scheme.
[0032] The high-voltage grid-connected unit 3 is responsible for connecting the energy storage power station and the power grid, and is a boundary device between the power station and the power grid.
[0033] The low-voltage power distribution unit is responsible for providing working power to the energy storage converter and booster, and can also provide power to external electrical equipment as needed.
[0034] The measurement and control communication unit is responsible for monitoring the operating status of each unit in the system, and completing the operation control of each unit in the system according to the changes in the power grid environment and downlink commands, while completing the communication of the uplink integrated machine operation data information;
[0035] The integrated cooling system device is composed of multiple cooling elements and is a system device used for efficient cooling and heat dissipation of an integrated cabin.
[0036] The energy storage converter 1 of this embodiment has a high fire protection level, so the energy storage converter 1 is set outside the cabin. In other embodiments, if the energy storage converter has a low fire protection level, the energy storage converter can be set inside the cabin, so that the energy storage converter can be cooled and dissipated by the cooling device inside the cabin to avoid safety accidents.
[0037] In this embodiment, the main circuit of the energy storage inverter and booster unit is as follows Figure 3 As shown, on the DC side of the energy storage inverter 1, it is connected to the energy storage battery of the energy storage power station. On the AC side of the energy storage inverter 1, it is connected to the low-voltage side of the step-up transformer 2. The high-voltage side of the step-up transformer 2 is incorporated into the power grid through the load switch fuse in the high-voltage grid connection unit 3. The energy storage inverter 1 converts the DC power of the energy storage battery into AC power, and then after being stepped up by the step-up transformer 2, it is incorporated into the power grid through the high-voltage grid connection unit 3.
[0038] The following further describes the present utility model in combination with the usage scenarios:
[0039] Step 1: Flexibly configure the integrated structural unit according to the designed capacity of the power station
[0040] Provide a standardized prefabricated base mechanism and recommend a reasonable foundation construction plan, which can meet the rapid design and construction response of the power station. Utilize the prefabricated base mechanism in the factory to integrally install the energy storage inverter 1 and the cabin body that meet the designed capacity of the power station. The integrated energy storage inverter 1 can be flexibly configured with multiple options such as a rated power of 2500kW - 3600kW according to reasonable technical economy. Inside the cabin, the step-up transformer 1 and the high-voltage grid connection unit 3 are flexibly configured according to different capacities and grid connection voltages.
[0041] Step 2: Complete the highly integrated design for each configuration unit in Step 1
[0042] As Figure 5 shown, in this embodiment, a copper busbar 6 is integrally connected between the AC side of the energy storage inverter 1 and the step-up transformer 2, improving the connection reliability and reducing the loss. Utilizing the integrated connection feature of the copper busbar 6, in the integrated design scheme, a scheme of integrating and sharing the transformer low-voltage circuit breaker and the AC grid connection circuit breaker of the energy storage inverter is realized, achieving reasonable technical safety while reducing the system equipment cost.
[0043] As Figure 6 shown, when the energy storage inverter and the step-up transformer are separately configured in the prior art, low-voltage circuit breakers (i.e., Figure 6 QF1 and QF2 in Figure 7 ) need to be set on both the AC side of the energy storage inverter and the low-voltage side of the step-up transformer, and the functions and parameters are repeated. After integration, only 1 low-voltage circuit breaker 7 is shared, as
[0044] shown. The AC side of the energy storage inverter 1 is connected to the low-voltage side of the step-up transformer 2 through the copper busbar 6. After being stepped up by the step-up transformer 2, it is connected to the high-voltage grid connection cabinet 3 through the main circuit copper busbar 5 of the grid connection unit. This connection path is smooth and saves space. At the same time, the low-voltage power distribution and measurement and control communication cabinet are integrated and set in the same cabinet to form the low-voltage cabinet 4, which can be more conveniently integrated with the entire integrated unit.
[0045] Step 3: Corresponding to the energy storage converter 1 and the step-up transformer 2 in Steps 1 and 2, configure and connect the corresponding module structure of the high-voltage grid connection unit 3 to safely connect the integrated machine system to the grid.
[0046] In this embodiment, the high-voltage grid connection unit 3 utilizes a protective detachable method to pre-install the high-voltage load switch fuse in the high-voltage grid connection unit 3 at the factory. To avoid damage to components during transportation and construction, the fuse body is removed by reserving the position of the load switch fuse.
[0047] In this embodiment, for the main circuit copper bar connecting the high-voltage side of the step-up transformer 2 to the high-voltage grid connection unit 3, that is, the main circuit copper bar 5 of the grid connection unit, a protective detachable integrated installation method is also adopted. After pre-installation at the factory, the copper bar body is removed by reserving the overlapping position. It not only realizes the integrated configuration of the connecting copper bar and the high-voltage fuse of the grid connection unit with different capacities, but also can protect components such as the main circuit overlapping copper bar during transportation and construction.
[0048] Specifically, the fuse body 8 on the load switch is provided with a fuse buckle 9, and both ends of the fuse are fixed by the fuse buckle 9. When the fuse is damaged, the fuse buckle 9 can be loosened to replace the fuse, as Figure 8 shown.
[0049] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, for those skilled in the art, they can still make modifications to the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments without creative efforts, or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
