[0002] A power energy storage system is an equipment system that uses batteries as energy storage carriers and performs recyclable electrical energy storage and release through an inverter. Power energy storage refers to storing electrical energy and releasing it for power supply when needed. The basic principle of energy storage technology is to convert electrical energy into other forms of energy for storage and then convert it back into electrical energy for release. Currently, in the energy storage battery market, there are mainly three major application fields: power energy storage, household energy storage, and base station energy storage. Among them, the field of backup power supplies for communication base stations currently accounts for a relatively large proportion, accounting for nearly half of the entire energy storage battery market.
