[0020] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the plan structure of a station-type energy storage power station according to the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0021] The following is a detailed explanation and description of a station-type energy storage power station according to the present invention, with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, this utility model discloses a station-type energy storage power station, including an automation room 1, a liquid cooling system room 4, an energy storage converter room 2, and a battery room 3.

[0023] The automation room 1 and the liquid cooling system room 4 are arranged close together. The energy storage converter room 2 and the battery room 3 are arranged in sequence on the left side of the automation room 1. Similarly, the energy storage converter room 2 and the battery room 3 are arranged in sequence on the right side of the automation room 1, forming a symmetrical distribution.

[0024] A battery rack 31 is installed in the battery compartment 3. Battery clusters 32 are arranged side by side on the battery rack 31. Each battery cluster 32 includes multiple individual battery packs connected sequentially from bottom to top. A cable tray 33 is laid above the battery rack 31. DC cables and signal lines are connected to the battery clusters 32. Both DC cables and signal lines are laid in the cable tray 33.

[0025] The energy storage converter 2 houses the energy storage converter PCS21, combiner cabinet 22, and power box 23. A high-voltage cable well 24 is also excavated within the energy storage converter 2. Roller shutters 25 are installed on both the front and rear sides of the energy storage converter 2. When the roller shutters 25 are rolled up, the energy storage converter 2 is open from front to back. During normal operation, the roller shutters 25 are rolled up to ensure communication between the energy storage converter 2 and the outside environment, meeting the heat dissipation requirements of the PCS21. The combiner cabinet 22 houses the battery management system (BMS) and a frame-type circuit breaker. The DC cables on the battery clusters 32 are connected to the input terminal of the frame-type circuit breaker within the combiner cabinet 22. The output terminal of the frame-type circuit breaker is connected to the DC side of the PCS21. The cable connected to the AC output terminal of the PCS21 is connected to external charging equipment via the high-voltage cable well 24. Multiple PCS21s can be installed as needed. Figure 1 Two PCS21s are configured, and the cables connected to the AC output terminals of these two PCS21s are connected to the external charging equipment through the same high-voltage cable well 24. The signal lines of the DC cables on the battery clusters 32 are connected to the communication interfaces of the BMS and PCS21 in the combiner cabinet 22, and the BMS is also connected to the PCS21. Multiple combiner cabinets 22 are configured, and each combiner cabinet 22 can connect one or more battery clusters 32 in the manner described above. The multiple combiner cabinets 22 are arranged in a row, and one power box 23 is set on one side of the first combiner cabinet 22 and the last combiner cabinet 22, respectively. The power box 23 supplies power to the energy storage units of the frame circuit breakers in all combiner cabinets 22. The PCS21 adopts a string PCS21, which integrates multiple small PCS, and each small PCS is connected to one combiner cabinet 22.

[0026] The automation room 1 houses a secondary cabinet 11 and a power distribution cabinet 13. The secondary cabinet 11 contains an energy management system (EMS), which is connected to the BMS and PCS 21 via signal lines to form a communication link. The power distribution cabinet 13 draws power from sources outside the energy storage power station (such as mains power or the site power supply) and supplies power to the equipment (such as lighting systems) in the automation room 1, liquid cooling system room 4, energy storage converter room 2, and battery room 3. The automation room 1 also includes a large monitoring screen and a control panel for maintenance personnel to monitor operations and perform emergency maintenance. Observation windows 12 are installed on the walls of the automation room 1, facing the monitoring screen, allowing observation of the interior of the automation room 1 from the outside.

[0027] The liquid cooling system room 4 is equipped with a liquid cooling unit 41 and its supporting equipment such as water pumps and water tanks. The liquid cooling unit 41 is connected to liquid cooling pipes, which are laid around the battery rack 31 to each individual battery pack to meet the temperature control requirements of each individual battery pack in the energy storage power station.

[0028] To ensure the energy storage power station has comprehensive protection functions, the battery compartment 3 can integrate necessary fire detection and alarm systems and gas extinguishing systems. The fire detection and alarm system can promptly detect abnormal situations within the energy storage power station and automatically activate the gas extinguishing system. The fire detection and alarm system and the gas extinguishing system can be powered through the distribution cabinet 13.

[0029] The walls of the automation room 1, liquid cooling system room 4, energy storage converter room 2 and battery room 3 can be assembled by sandwich panel decorative wall panels, which include two layers of thin steel plates and a support column located between the two layers of thin steel plates, and the outer surfaces of the inner and outer thin steel plates are coated with anti-corrosion paint.

[0030] The operating principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0031] The battery cluster 32 in battery compartment 3 is the energy storage unit of the energy storage power station, which is composed of multiple individual battery packs connected in series and parallel. The battery cluster 32 collects the actual electrical parameters such as voltage, current and temperature of the battery cluster 32 through the BMS to estimate the remaining power or health status of the battery cluster 32. The BMS controls the liquid cooling unit 41 to maintain the battery cluster 32 at a suitable temperature range (such as 25℃-40℃) according to the temperature change of the battery cluster 32. One or more battery clusters 32 are connected and disconnected from PCS21 through the frame circuit breaker in the return cabinet to realize the collection and distribution of battery clusters 32. On the one hand, the EMS collects the status information of battery cluster 32, the operating data of PCS21 and the operating status information of combiner cabinet 22 from the BMS; on the other hand, it formulates energy dispatch strategies based on external factors such as grid load and electricity price. The EMS sends battery operating parameter settings to the BMS and issues commands such as power output and charge / discharge start / stop to the PCS21. The PCS21 completes bidirectional DC-AC conversion according to the control commands issued by the EMS to meet the charging or power supply needs of the battery cluster 32, thereby achieving optimized configuration and efficient utilization of energy in the energy storage power station.

[0032] This utility model has the following advantages:

[0033] 1. The automation room 1, energy storage converter room 2 and battery room 3 are set up separately, with clear functional areas, which facilitates daily inspection, maintenance and troubleshooting by staff. Maintenance personnel can more efficiently locate and handle problems in each functional area, reduce mutual interference between different devices and improve maintenance efficiency and safety.

[0034] 2. The energy storage converter room 2 and the battery room 3 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the automation room 1. This layout can make full use of the space, making the structure of the entire station-type energy storage power station more compact and reasonable, reducing construction costs and land area.

[0035] 3. The layout of the energy storage power station facilitates expansion. When it is necessary to increase the energy storage capacity or expand the functions, it is relatively easy to expand on the basis of the existing layout. For example, add battery racks 31 and battery clusters 32 to battery room 3, and add energy storage converters and other equipment to energy storage converter room 2, without causing major changes and impacts on the overall system.

[0036] 4. Each battery cluster 32 is connected to the DC side of PCS21 through a frame-type circuit breaker in combiner cabinet 22. This connection method can ensure that the electrical connection between battery cluster 32 and energy storage converter is stable and reliable. The frame-type circuit breaker can quickly cut off the circuit in case of overcurrent, short circuit and other faults, protect battery cluster 32 and energy storage converter and other equipment from damage, and improve the safety and stability of energy storage power station.

[0037] 5. Each battery cluster 32 is connected to the BMS and PCS21 via the communication interface within the combiner cabinet 22. Simultaneously, the EMS is connected to both the BMS and PCS21 via signal lines, forming a complete communication link. This enables the energy management system (EMS) to monitor and manage the status of the battery clusters 32 in real time, including parameters such as voltage, current, and temperature, as well as the operating status of the energy storage converter PCS21. This allows for precise control and optimized scheduling of the energy storage power station, improving the operating efficiency and performance of the energy storage system.

[0038] 6. The Battery Management System (BMS) monitors and manages each battery cluster 32 in real time, which can promptly detect abnormalities in the battery pack, such as overcharging, over-discharging, and overheating, and take corresponding protective measures to prevent battery failures from causing safety accidents, extend battery life, and improve the reliability and safety of the entire energy storage power station.

[0039] 7. The frame-type circuit breaker plays a role in short-circuit and overload protection in the circuit. Combined with the overcharge and over-discharge protection functions of the battery management system (BMS), it forms a multi-layer safety protection mechanism, which can more comprehensively ensure the safe operation of the energy storage power station and reduce the risk of serious accidents such as fires and explosions caused by electrical faults.

[0040] 8. The energy storage converter PCS21 completes the bidirectional conversion between DC and AC for the battery cluster 32, enabling connection and energy exchange with the power grid or other charging and power consumption equipment. Through reasonable connection and control, the energy conversion process can be optimized, energy conversion efficiency can be improved, energy loss can be reduced, and the energy storage power station can store and release electrical energy more effectively, thereby improving energy utilization efficiency.

[0041] 9. The Energy Management System (EMS) communicates with the BMS and PCS21 to achieve intelligent energy management of the energy storage power station based on factors such as grid demand, battery status, and user settings. For example, it can rationally arrange battery charging and discharging time and power according to grid load conditions, improve grid stability and reliability, and better meet users' electricity needs, thereby achieving optimized energy allocation.
