This results in complex installation, difficult maintenance, and lengthy connecting pipelines between equipment, leading to energy transmission losses of over 15%. Solar thermal systems generally lack wind speed response mechanisms, making them prone to reflector deformation or damage in the strong winds common in oil fields, resulting in a high equipment failure rate. Energy storage battery groups pose significant safety risks, lacking rapid fire extinguishing measures in the event of thermal runaway, which can easily lead to fire accidents, causing system shutdowns and property damage. The system control has a low level of intelligence, failing to dynamically optimize operation based on real-time lighting conditions and load demands, resulting in low energy utilization.

The output end of the photovoltaic power generation module 2 is electrically connected to the input end of the energy storage battery cabinet 3; The output end of the energy storage battery cabinet 3 is connected to the circulating pump in the solar thermal collector group 4 through an energy storage converter. The collaborative control cabinet 5 is communicatively connected to the photovoltaic power generation module 2, the energy storage battery cabinet 3, and the solar thermal collector group 4, respectively, and is used to schedule the operation status of the three according to the lighting conditions and load demand.

[0025] In this embodiment, the support frame assembly 1 is preferably constructed from high-strength steel welded together. Eight adjustable feet are provided at the bottom, employing a threaded adjustment structure. The support height can be adjusted by ±150mm by rotating the adjusting bolts to adapt to uneven ground. The system is then fixed to the concrete foundation using the anchor bolts. The support frame assembly 1 includes a photovoltaic mounting frame and an equipment bearing area located at its rear. The photovoltaic mounting frame uses a steel structure support with a 30° tilt angle for mounting the photovoltaic power generation module 2.

[0026] Photovoltaic power generation module 2 uses high-efficiency monocrystalline silicon solar panels, mounted on a photovoltaic mounting rack. Its output end is electrically connected to the input end of energy storage battery cabinet 3 via a copper core cable. Energy storage battery cabinet 3 uses lithium iron phosphate battery packs and is equipped with a fire suppression system, including an aerosol fire extinguishing device and a thermal wire automatic triggering mechanism. The aerosol fire extinguishing device is installed on the top of the battery cabinet, and the thermal wire is laid along the battery pack. When the battery temperature exceeds 80°C, the thermal wire automatically triggers the aerosol fire extinguishing device to achieve rapid fire suppression.

[0027] The output of the energy storage battery cabinet 3 is connected to the circulation pump in the solar thermal collector group 4 via a 50kW energy storage converter. The solar thermal collector group 4 is a trough-type concentrating solar collector, including a rotatable reflector and collector tubes. The reflector is made of aluminum alloy with a high-reflectivity coating, and the collector tubes are vacuum collector tubes filled with heat-conducting oil. The solar thermal collector group 4 is equipped with a solar tracking controller, which communicates with the collaborative control cabinet 5 via an RS485 bus and can respond to wind speed sensor signals. When the wind speed exceeds the set threshold of level 8, the controller rotates the reflector to a wind-resistant angle parallel to the ground to protect the reflector from damage by strong winds.

[0028] The collaborative control cabinet 5 is connected to the photovoltaic power generation module 2, the energy storage battery cabinet 3, and the solar thermal collector group 4 via a CAN bus, and is used to schedule the operation status of the three based on the lighting conditions and load demand. The collaborative control cabinet 5 includes a battery management system and an energy management system.

The energy management system supports 4G wireless communication, enabling it to upload system operation data to a remote monitoring platform every 15 minutes and receive remote commands for system adjustments. The system also includes a mains power access interface. When the photovoltaic and energy storage power supply is insufficient, the collaborative control cabinet 5 automatically switches to mains power supply with a switching time of less than 100ms, ensuring continuous system operation.

[0029] The supporting frame assembly 1 integrates photovoltaic power generation module 2, energy storage battery cabinet 3, solar thermal collector group 4, and collaborative control cabinet 5, making the system structure compact and space utilization efficient, reducing the length of connecting pipelines between equipment, and reducing energy transmission loss; the collaborative control cabinet 5 uniformly schedules the operation status of the three components, realizing efficient energy utilization, reducing energy waste, and improving the overall operating efficiency of the system.

[0030] Optionally, the support frame assembly 1 includes a photovoltaic mounting frame and an equipment carrying area located on its back, with the energy storage battery cabinet 3 and the collaborative control cabinet 5 arranged side by side in the equipment carrying area.

[0031] It should be noted that the photovoltaic mounting frame and equipment bearing area of ​​the support frame assembly 1 are separated: the photovoltaic mounting frame and equipment bearing area are designed separately to avoid the impact of equipment heat dissipation on photovoltaic efficiency. At the same time, the energy storage battery cabinet 3 and the collaborative control cabinet 5 are set up side by side in the equipment bearing area, which facilitates equipment maintenance and repair, improves the maintainability of the system, and reduces operation and maintenance costs.

[0032] Optionally, the solar thermal collector group 4 is a trough-type concentrating solar collector, which includes a rotatable reflector and a collector tube, and is equipped with a solar tracking controller.

[0033] It should be noted that the solar thermal collector group 4 adopts a trough-type concentrating solar collector: by concentrating light through reflectors, the heat collection efficiency is improved, enabling the system to generate higher heat energy under the same light conditions, which is suitable for the heating needs of oilfield well sites; the trough structure is relatively simple and reliable, suitable for long-term use in oilfield environments, and reduces the equipment failure rate.

[0034] Optionally, the solar tracking controller is communicatively connected to the collaborative control cabinet 5 and can respond to the wind speed sensor signal, controlling the reflector to rotate to the wind-resistant angle when the wind speed exceeds a set threshold.

[0035] It should be noted that the solar tracking controller is connected to the collaborative control cabinet 5 and can respond to wind speed sensor signals: when the wind speed exceeds the set threshold, it automatically controls the reflector to rotate to the wind-resistant angle, which effectively protects the solar collector under severe weather conditions, extends the service life of the equipment, reduces maintenance costs, and improves the reliability of the system.

[0036] Optionally, a fire suppression system is installed inside the enclosure where the energy storage battery cabinet 3 is located.

[0037] It should be noted that the energy storage battery cabinet 3 is equipped with a fire suppression system: it can quickly activate to extinguish the fire when the battery experiences thermal runaway, prevent the fire from spreading, ensure the safety of the system, avoid system shutdown and property damage caused by battery fire, and improve the safety and reliability of the system.

[0038] Optionally, the fire protection system adopts an aerosol fire extinguishing device and is equipped with a thermal wire automatic triggering mechanism.

[0039] It should be noted that the fire protection system uses aerosol extinguishing devices and a thermal wire automatic triggering mechanism: the aerosol extinguishing device has the advantages of fast extinguishing speed (within 3-5 seconds), no residue, and non-conductive properties, making it particularly suitable for use in enclosed battery cabinets; the thermal wire automatic triggering mechanism can detect abnormal battery temperature in a timely manner and start extinguishing the fire in advance, improving the safety and reliability of the system.

[0040] Optionally, the collaborative control cabinet 5 includes a battery management system and an energy management system. The battery management system is used to monitor the voltage, temperature and remaining power of the energy storage battery, and the energy management system formulates charging and discharging strategies based on the data from the battery management system and load requirements.

[0041] It should be noted that the collaborative control cabinet 5 includes a battery management system and an energy management system: the battery management system monitors the battery status in real time, and the energy management system formulates the optimal charging and discharging strategy based on the data, which can extend the battery life by more than 20%, improve the utilization efficiency of the energy storage system, and ensure the stable operation of the system.

[0042] Optionally, the energy management system supports 4G wireless communication, enabling it to upload system operation data to a remote monitoring platform and receive remote commands.

[0043] It should be noted that the energy management system supports 4G wireless communication: it can upload system operation data to a remote monitoring platform, which makes it convenient for managers to remotely monitor the system's operating status, promptly identify and handle problems, improve the system's intelligence level and operation and maintenance efficiency, and reduce the cost of manual inspection.

[0044] Optionally, the system also includes a mains power access interface, and the collaborative control cabinet 5 can automatically switch to mains power supply when the power supply from the photovoltaic storage is insufficient.

[0045] It should be noted that the system includes a mains power access interface: when the power supply from the photovoltaic storage is insufficient, it automatically switches to mains power supply with a switching time of less than 100ms. This ensures the system's continuous power supply capability under conditions of insufficient light or insufficient energy storage, improves the system's reliability and power supply guarantee capability, and avoids production interruptions caused by power outages.

[0046] Optionally, the bottom of the support frame assembly 1 is provided with adjustable feet to adapt to uneven ground and fix the system to the foundation.

[0047] It should be noted that the bottom of the support frame assembly 1 is equipped with adjustable feet: these feet can adapt to uneven ground, ensuring stable installation of the system under various terrain conditions, avoiding system tilting and damage caused by uneven ground, improving the ease of installation and operational stability of the system, and reducing equipment failures caused by installation problems.

[0048] Instructions: First, adjust the system height using the adjustable feet at the bottom of the support frame assembly 1 to ensure stable installation on uneven ground, and then fix it to the foundation with anchor bolts. After the system starts, the photovoltaic power generation module 2 generates electricity under sunlight conditions. The electricity is transmitted via cable to the energy storage battery cabinet 3 for storage. The built-in fire protection system in the energy storage battery cabinet 3 monitors the battery temperature in real time. When the temperature exceeds 80°C, the thermal wire automatically triggers the aerosol fire extinguishing device to extinguish the fire. At the same time, the reflectors in the solar thermal collector group 4 adjust their angle under the control of the solar tracking controller to maximize the concentration efficiency. When the wind speed sensor detects a wind speed exceeding level 8, the solar tracking controller automatically controls the reflectors to rotate to a 0° wind-resistant angle to protect the equipment. The battery management system in the collaborative control cabinet 5 monitors the voltage, temperature, and remaining power of the energy storage battery in real time. The energy management system formulates control plans based on these data and load requirements. The optimal charging and discharging strategy is determined, and the circulation pump in the solar thermal collector group 4 is controlled by the energy storage converter. When the lighting conditions are good and the energy storage is sufficient, the system prioritizes the use of photovoltaic power generation and energy storage power supply. When the lighting is insufficient or the energy storage capacity is lower than the set threshold, the collaborative control cabinet 5 automatically switches to the mains power supply with a switching time of less than 100ms to ensure continuous power supply. The energy management system supports 4G wireless communication and uploads system operation data to the remote monitoring platform every 15 minutes for remote monitoring and management. During system operation, the collaborative control cabinet 5 continuously monitors the status of each module and dynamically adjusts the operating mode according to actual needs to ensure efficient, safe and stable operation of the system in the oilfield well site environment. At the same time, the energy storage battery cabinet 3 and the collaborative control cabinet 5 are set side by side in the equipment bearing area on the back of the support frame assembly 1, which avoids the impact of equipment heat dissipation on photovoltaic efficiency, facilitates equipment maintenance and repair, and improves the maintainability of the system.
