The core of an energy storage power station lies in the battery system, and the performance of the battery management system directly impacts the safety, reliability, and economic viability of the station. The battery management system (BMS), the "brain" of the battery system, is responsible for monitoring battery status, managing the charging and discharging process, protecting battery safety, and optimizing battery efficiency.
[0003] In energy storage power stations, battery systems typically consist of numerous battery cells, which are connected in series or parallel to form battery clusters, which in turn comprise the entire battery system. Due to performance differences between battery cells and the impact of various environmental factors during use, precise monitoring and management of each battery cell and battery cluster are required to ensure the overall performance and safety of the battery system.
