[Technical Field]

[0001] The present disclosure relates to a stationary electricity storage system. [Background technology]

[0002] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Publication No. 2012-113856 (Patent Document 1) discloses a vehicle equipped with a battery pack in which a plurality of battery stacks are connected in parallel. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2012-113856 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] In the vehicle described in Patent Document 1, a system main relay (SMR) is provided for each of multiple battery stacks (power storage devices). In such a vehicle, a current sensor may be provided for each parallel-connected battery stack to control the current value for each battery stack. To achieve highly accurate current control, it is desirable to perform output correction (e.g., offset correction) for each current sensor while checking the output value for each current sensor when no current is flowing. For example, when the vehicle's start switch is turned off at the end of a trip, the SMR corresponding to each battery stack is shut off, and current is thought to stop flowing through each battery stack. Therefore, after the trip ends, the vehicle may be able to obtain the output value for each current sensor when no current is flowing. The start switch of a vehicle is generally referred to as a "power switch" or "ignition switch."

[0005] However, in a stationary energy storage system that uses a power storage device for energy management, the power storage device must be kept in a power-on state for energy management. A power storage device in a power-off state cannot be used for energy management. Therefore, the stationary energy storage system has a problem in that output correction of a current sensor provided in the power storage device is insufficient, which can easily reduce the accuracy of current control of the power storage device.

[0006] The present disclosure has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and has an object to provide a stationary energy storage system that can perform energy management with high accuracy using an energy storage device. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] A stationary energy storage system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a plurality of energy storage devices, a current sensor provided in each of the plurality of energy storage devices, and a control device that controls a current value of each of the plurality of energy storage devices. Each of the plurality of energy storage devices is configured to be able to switch between energization and cut-off in accordance with a command from the control device. The control device selects an energy storage device to be used for energy management from among the plurality of energy storage devices, cuts off the current of the energy storage devices that were not selected, controls the current value of the selected energy storage device for energy management, and, during execution of energy management, obtains an output value when no current is flowing from the current sensor corresponding to the energy storage device that was not selected. [Effects of the Invention]

[0008] According to the present disclosure, it is possible to provide a stationary energy storage system that can perform energy management with high accuracy using an energy storage device. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0009] [Figure 1] 1 is a diagram illustrating a schematic configuration of an energy management system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. [Figure 2] 1 is a flowchart illustrating an energy management method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. [Figure 3] FIG. 10 is a diagram for explaining an example of energy management requested by a server that manages a power grid. [Figure 4] FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating a modification of the energy management method illustrated in FIG. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0010] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the drawings, the same or corresponding parts are designated by the same reference numerals and their description will not be repeated.

[0011] FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating a schematic configuration of an energy management system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to FIG. 1, the energy management system according to this embodiment includes a power storage system 100 and a server 200 (EM server), and performs energy management of a power grid PG. The server 200 is configured to be able to communicate with a server 300 (TSO server) that manages the power grid PG. "EM" stands for energy management. "TSO" stands for transmission system operator. The power grid PG is a power network constructed by power plants and power transmission and distribution facilities. The server 300 includes a processor and a storage device, monitors the status of the power grid PG (e.g., supply-demand balance and frequency), and requests energy management from the server 200. This allows the power grid PG to be maintained in a state where it can stably supply high-quality power. The power grid PG is, for example, an AC grid provided by a power company.

[0012] The power storage system 100 includes a DC / AC conversion circuit 10, N SMRs 21-1 to 21-N (referred to as "SMRs 21" when not distinguished), N DC / DC conversion circuits 22-1 to 22-N (referred to as "DC / DC conversion circuits 22" when not distinguished), and N battery packs 23-1 to 23-N (referred to as "battery packs 23" when not distinguished). "SMR" stands for system main relay. The SMR 21, the DC / DC conversion circuit 22, and the battery pack 23 are examples of the "relay," "power conversion circuit," and "power storage device" according to the present disclosure, respectively. The power storage system 100 is controlled by a server 200. N is, for example, approximately 50. However, N may be any natural number equal to or greater than 2, and may be 100 or greater. The power storage system 100 may further include a leakage detector (not shown) (for example, a breaker that automatically cuts off current when a leakage is detected).

[0013] The battery packs 23-1 to 23-N are connected in parallel to one another. The battery packs 23-1 to 23-N are provided with SMRs 21-1 to 21-N and DC / DC conversion circuits 22-1 to 22-N, respectively. Each of the battery packs 23-1 to 23-N is configured to be able to switch between energization and cut-off in accordance with a command from the server 200. A current can flow through a battery pack 23 in an energized state. On the other hand, no current flows through a battery pack 23 in an cut-off state. In this embodiment, the SMR 21 is configured to switch between energization and cut-off of the corresponding battery pack 23 in accordance with a command from the server 200. The SMR 21 is provided in an electrical path connecting the DC / AC conversion circuit 10 and the DC / DC conversion circuit 22. The SMR 21 is, for example, an electromagnetic mechanical relay. The electrical path is connected or disconnected by opening or closing the SMR 21.

[0014] The DC / AC conversion circuit 10 is configured to output AC power to the power grid PG in accordance with a command from the server 200. The DC / AC conversion circuit 10 is also configured to convert AC power input from the power grid PG into DC power and output it to each of the DC / DC conversion circuits 22-1 to 22-N. The DC / DC conversion circuit 22 is configured to transform the output voltage of the corresponding battery pack 23 in accordance with a command from the server 200. The DC / DC conversion circuit 22 is also configured to transform the DC power input from the DC / AC conversion circuit 10 and output it to the corresponding battery pack 23 in accordance with a command from the server 200.

[0015] Specifically, when DC power is input from the battery pack 23 to the corresponding DC / DC conversion circuit 22, the DC / DC conversion circuit 22 outputs the DC power to the DC / AC conversion circuit 10 in accordance with a command from the server 200. Then, the DC / AC conversion circuit 10 outputs AC power to the power grid PG in accordance with the command from the server 200 (reverse flow). On the other hand, when AC power is input from the power grid PG to the DC / AC conversion circuit 10 (forward flow), the DC / AC conversion circuit 10 outputs DC power to each of the DC / DC conversion circuits 22-1 to 22-N in accordance with the command from the server 200. Then, each of the DC / DC conversion circuits 22-1 to 22-N outputs DC power to the corresponding battery pack 23 in accordance with the command from the server 200. The output power of each DC / DC conversion circuit may be the same or different. The server 200 may determine the output power of each DC / DC conversion circuit in accordance with the corresponding battery pack 23.

[0016] The server 200 includes a processor 210 and a storage device 220. An example of the processor 210 is a CPU (Central Processing Unit). The storage device 220 is configured to be able to save stored information. The battery packs 23-1 to 23-N included in the power storage system 100 are registered in the server 200. The storage device 220 stores information about each battery pack (for example, specifications, control information, and sensor information) distinguished by battery pack identification information (battery ID). The control information includes information that the server 200 uses to individually control the SMR 21 and DC / DC conversion circuit 22 corresponding to each battery pack. The sensor information includes a correction coefficient for the sensor output.

[0017] The battery pack 23 includes a battery 231, a battery ECU (Electronic Control Unit) 232, a current sensor 233a that detects the current flowing through the battery 231, a voltage sensor 233b that detects the voltage of the battery 231, and a temperature sensor 233c that detects the temperature of the battery 231. Detection results from each sensor are input to the battery ECU 232. The battery ECU 232 includes a processor and a storage device (not shown), and records the detection results from each sensor in the storage device, linking them to the detection time. The battery ECU 232 also calculates the SOC (State of Charge) of the battery 231 from the detection results from each sensor, and records the SOC of the battery 231 in the storage device, linking it to the time. The SOC represents the remaining amount of power, for example, as a ratio of the current amount of power stored to the amount of power stored in a fully charged state. The battery ECU 232 outputs the data stored in the storage device to the server 200 in response to a request from the server 200.

[0018] The battery ECU 232 controls each of the SMR 21 and the DC / DC conversion circuit 22 in accordance with commands from the server 200. The battery ECU 232 converts the commands from the server 200 into control signals for each of the SMR 21 and the DC / DC conversion circuit 22. The server 200 controls each of the SMRs 21-1 to 21-N and the DC / DC conversion circuits 22-1 to 22-N via the battery ECU 232.

[0019] The battery 231 may be a single secondary battery, or may be a battery pack configured by electrically connecting a plurality of secondary batteries. The battery packs 23-1 to 23-N may include secondary batteries of the same type, or may include secondary batteries of different types. Examples of secondary batteries include lithium ion batteries and nickel-metal hydride batteries. The secondary batteries may be liquid secondary batteries, semi-solid secondary batteries, or all-solid secondary batteries.

[0020] The battery pack 23 corresponds to a stationary power storage device. A battery pack (including a drive battery and a battery ECU) used in an electric vehicle may be reused as the battery pack 23. Furthermore, an inverter and a DC / DC converter used in an electric vehicle may be reused as the DC / AC conversion circuit 10 and the DC / DC conversion circuit 22, respectively. The power storage system 100 functions as a stationary ESS (Energy Storage System). In this embodiment, the server 200 and the battery ECU 232 function as a "control device" according to the present disclosure.

[0021] Incidentally, in order for server 200 to perform current control of each of battery packs 23-1 to 23-N with high accuracy, it is desirable for server 200 to perform output correction (for example, offset correction) of each current sensor while checking the output value of each current sensor 233a of battery packs 23-1 to 23-N when no current is flowing. However, in a stationary energy storage system, it is required to keep the energy storage device in a power-on state for energy management. A power storage device in a power-off state cannot be used for energy management. This leads to a problem that output correction of the current sensor provided in the power storage device becomes insufficient, which easily reduces the accuracy of current control of the power storage device.

[0022] Therefore, in this embodiment, while energy management is being performed, the server 200 acquires an output value (hereinafter referred to as a "zero output value") when no current is flowing from the current sensor 233a corresponding to the battery pack 23 not used for energy management, and corrects the output of the current sensor 233a (corrects detection error) based on the acquired zero output value. This makes it possible to perform energy management with high accuracy using the battery pack 23. Furthermore, the server 200 controls the power storage system 100 so that energy management of the power system PG is performed in response to requests from the server 300 that manages the power system PG. The server 200 constantly accepts requests from the server 300.

[0023] 2 is a flowchart showing the energy management method according to this embodiment, in which "S" denotes a step.

[0024] Referring to FIG. 2, server 300 periodically executes the process flow of S11 to S12. In S11, server 300 detects the state of the power grid PG (for example, the supply and demand situation and frequency). In the following S12, server 300 requests server 200 to perform energy management to improve the state of the power grid PG. Specifically, server 300 transmits an EM request signal to server 200. The EM request signal indicates the content of the requested energy management (for example, charging power, discharging power, amount of charging power, or amount of discharging power). After the process of S12 is executed, the process returns to the first step (S11).

[0025] Server 200 starts the process flow of S21 to S27 every time it receives an EM request signal from server 300. In S21, server 200 determines whether the input / output capability requested by the EM request signal is lower than the input / output capability of power storage system 100. Specifically, if the charge power or discharge power requested by the EM request signal is a value that power storage system 100 can charge or discharge even if at least one of battery packs 23-1 to 23-N is in an interrupted state, a determination of YES is made in S21, and the process proceeds to S22. If the charge power or discharge power requested by the EM request signal is a value that power storage system 100 cannot achieve unless all battery packs 23-1 to 23-N are in an energized state, or a value that power storage system 100 cannot achieve even if all battery packs are in an energized state, a determination of NO is made in S21, and the process proceeds to S24. In S24, server 200 energizes all battery packs 23-1 to 23-N. Specifically, server 200 puts all of SMRs 21-1 to 21-N into a connected state, and then the process proceeds to S25.

[0026] In S22, server 200 selects one or more battery packs (hereinafter referred to as "EM control targets") to be used for energy management from among battery packs 23-1 to 23-N. Server 200 determines the EM control targets so that power storage system 100 can charge or discharge the charge power or discharge power requested by the EM request signal. Server 200 may select the number of battery packs (EM control targets) required for energy management, giving priority to battery packs that have been in operation for a short time since the most recent learning (output correction) of current sensor 233a. Furthermore, when the EM request signal requests an amount of charge power or discharge power, server 200 may determine the number of battery packs included in the EM control targets based on the requested amount of charge power or discharge power. When there is SOC variation among battery packs 23-1 to 23-N, server 200 may select the number of battery packs (EM control targets) required for energy management based on the SOC of each battery pack.

[0027] 3 is a diagram illustrating an example of energy management requested by the server 300. Hereinafter, a request for charging power or discharging power will be referred to as a "power request," and a request for the amount of charging power or discharging power will be referred to as an "energy request."

[0028] The power request may be an energy management request to suppress fluctuations in the power generated from a power plant in the power grid PG. The power plant may include a naturally variable power source whose power output fluctuates depending on weather conditions. The server 200 may receive a power request from the server 300 to bring the actual value L12 of power generated in the power grid PG closer to the target value L11. The energy request may be an energy management request to adjust the supply and demand balance of the power grid PG. The server 200 may receive an energy request from the server 300 to match the power demand L21 and power supply L22 of the power grid PG.

[0029] The battery packs 23-1 to 23-N may include a first battery pack (first power storage device) including an output-type battery (first battery) and a second battery pack (second power storage device) including a capacity-type battery (second battery). The first battery pack and the second battery pack may each include a battery pack (battery 231) in which a plurality of output-type batteries and a plurality of capacity-type batteries are electrically connected. The rated output (W) of the output-type battery is greater than the rated output (W) of the capacity-type battery. The rated output corresponds to the maximum discharge power indicated by the battery manufacturer. The capacity (Wh) of the capacity-type battery is greater than the capacity (Wh) of the output-type battery. The battery capacity corresponds to the amount of electricity stored in a battery in a fully charged state. The power density of the output-type battery may be higher than the power density of the capacity-type battery. The energy density of the capacity-type battery may be higher than the energy density of the output-type battery. 3, line L1 shows the change (slope) in the output power (W) and capacity (Wh) of the power storage system 100 when the number of power-on output-type batteries is increased or decreased. Line L2 shows the change (slope) in the output power (W) and capacity (Wh) of the power storage system 100 when the number of power-on capacity-type batteries is increased or decreased.

[0030] When server 200 receives only an energy request out of an energy request and a power request, it preferentially selects the capacity battery (second battery pack) over the output battery (first battery pack) as the EM control target, and when server 200 receives only a power request, it preferentially selects the output battery (first battery pack) over the capacity battery (second battery pack) as the EM control target. Furthermore, when server 200 receives both an energy request with a requested Wh of X and a power request with a requested W of Y as shown in Fig. 3, it selects the EM control target so that power storage system 100 has the input / output capability to meet both the energy request and the power request.

[0031] The server 200 can individually adjust the output voltage of each battery pack included in the EM control target by using the DC / DC conversion circuit 22 (power conversion circuit) of each battery pack. Therefore, the server 200 can align the output voltages of each battery pack included in the EM control target by individually adjusting the output voltages of multiple types of power storage devices (battery packs 23-1 to 23-N) with different battery types using the DC / DC conversion circuit 22. This power storage system 100 can easily employ multiple types of batteries. The configuration shown in FIG. 1 makes it easy to realize a stationary power storage system that performs energy management with high precision using, for example, used batteries.

[0032] 2 again, in S23, server 200 energizes each battery pack included in the EM control target (each battery pack selected in S22) and cuts off the current to each battery pack not selected in S22 (hereinafter referred to as "learning target"). Specifically, server 200 sets SMR 21 corresponding to the EM control target to a connected state (closed state) and sets SMR 21 corresponding to the learning target to a disconnected state (open state).

[0033] In S25, the server 200 executes the energy management requested by the server 300 using each battery pack that entered a powered state in S23 or S24. Specifically, the server 200 controls the current value of each powered battery pack for energy management based on the value detected by the current sensor 233a of each powered battery pack. If a correction coefficient is set for the output of the current sensor 233a, the server 200 detects the current value of the battery pack 23 (battery 231) based on the output value of the current sensor 233a corrected by the correction coefficient. While executing energy management, the server 200 may execute SOC equalization for each powered battery pack.

[0034] In the next S26, the server 200 learns the detection error of the current sensor 233a of each battery pack included in the learning target. Specifically, the server 200 acquires the zero output value (the output value when no current is flowing) for the current sensor 233a of each battery pack included in the learning target, and records the error (detection error) of the zero output value from the correct sensor output value in the storage device 220.

[0035] In the following S27, the server 200 performs output correction (detection error correction) for the current sensor 233a of each battery pack included in the learning target so as to reduce the detection error acquired in S26. For example, when no current flows through the battery 231 of the battery pack 23 (learning target), the output correction is performed so that the output value (detection value) of the current sensor 233a corresponding to the battery 231 indicates 0 A. The output correction may be an offset correction. The server 200 may determine a correction coefficient for the output of the current sensor 233a based on the zero output value. When the process of S27 is executed, the process flow of S21 to S27 ends.

[0036] As described above, the energy management method according to this embodiment includes the processes shown in Fig. 2. Each process is performed by one or more processors executing a program stored in one or more memories. However, these processes may also be performed by hardware (electronic circuits) instead of software.

[0037] The stationary energy storage system according to this embodiment includes a plurality of energy storage devices (battery packs 23-1 to 23-N), a current sensor 233a provided in each of the plurality of energy storage devices, and a control device (server 200 and battery ECU 232) that controls the current value of each of the plurality of energy storage devices. Each of the plurality of energy storage devices is configured to be able to switch between energization and cut-off in accordance with a command from the control device. The control device selects an energy storage device to be used for energy management from the plurality of energy storage devices (S22), cuts off the current of the energy storage device that was not selected (S23), controls the current value of the selected energy storage device for energy management (S25), and, during execution of energy management, obtains the output value when no current is flowing from the current sensor corresponding to the energy storage device that was not selected (S26).

[0038] According to the above configuration, energy management can be performed using the selected power storage device. Furthermore, while energy management is being performed, the output value when no current is flowing can be obtained for the current sensor corresponding to the unselected power storage device. This makes it possible to correct the output of the current sensor (correct detection error) based on the output value of the current sensor when no current is flowing. In this way, the above stationary power storage system can perform energy management with high accuracy using the power storage device.

[0039] In the stationary energy storage system according to this embodiment, the control device (server 200 and battery ECU 232) interrupts current using a relay (SMR 21) corresponding to a learning target (a power storage device that has not been selected) during energy management (S23), and corrects the detection error of current sensor 233a corresponding to the learning target based on the zero output value (the output value of current sensor 233a when no current is flowing) (S27). This configuration makes it possible to select an arbitrary power storage device (an EM control target) from among a plurality of power storage devices, and to appropriately interrupt the current of the unselected power storage device (a learning target) using the relay. However, server 200 may also bring battery pack 23 into an interrupted state (a state in which no current flows) by controlling DC / DC conversion circuit 22 instead of SMR 21.

[0040] In the stationary energy storage system according to this embodiment, the control device (server 200 and battery ECU 232) starts the process flow of S21 to S27 every time it receives an EM request signal (S12) from server 300. As a result, the process flow of S21 to S27 is repeatedly executed. Therefore, energy management is continuously executed by the process of S25. The control device repeatedly selects an energy storage device (S22) while executing energy management. Therefore, the control device can change the EM control target (the energy storage device to be used for energy management) in response to a request from server 300. While executing energy management, the control device sequentially interrupts the current of each of the multiple energy storage devices (S23) and acquires the output value of current sensor 233a of the learning target (the energy storage device whose current has been interrupted) (S26). This makes it possible to sequentially correct the output (detection error correction) of each current sensor in battery packs 23-1 to 23-N.

[0041] The processing flow shown in FIG. 2 can be modified as appropriate. For example, the order of processing may be changed or unnecessary steps may be omitted depending on the purpose. Furthermore, the content of any of the processing may be changed. FIG. 4 is a diagram showing a modification of the energy management method shown in FIG. 2. Each of the servers 200, 300 may execute the processing shown in FIG. 4 instead of the processing shown in FIG. 2. In the modification shown in FIG. 4, the server 200 periodically executes the processing flow of S31, S32, S21A, and S23 to S27 (hereinafter referred to as the "S31 flow").

[0042] In S31, the server 200 determines the EM control targets and the learning targets. A predetermined number of battery packs are selected from the battery packs 23-1 to 23-N as learning targets, and the battery packs other than the learning targets are selected as EM control targets. That is, in this modification, the battery packs 23 not selected as EM control targets correspond to the learning targets. The predetermined number (the number of battery packs 23 included in the learning targets) may be one or more.

[0043] In this modification, the S31 flow is executed periodically. Therefore, the selection (S31) of the EM control target and the learning target is executed repeatedly. The server 200 may change the learning target each time the selection (S31) is executed so that learning is performed on all the current sensors 233a of the battery packs 23-1 to 23-N while energy management is being executed. The server 200 may select the battery packs 23 to be learning targets in the order of battery packs 23-1, 23-2, 23-3, ..., 23-N.

[0044] In the next S32, server 200 determines the maximum charge power and maximum discharge power of power storage system 100 based on the input / output characteristics of the EM control target. Server 200 may further determine the maximum charge energy and maximum discharge energy of power storage system 100 based on the SOC of power storage system 100. Each of the obtained maximum charge power, maximum discharge power, maximum charge energy, and maximum discharge energy corresponds to the input / output characteristics of power storage system 100. Server 200 then transmits a signal indicating the input / output characteristics of power storage system 100 (hereinafter referred to as a "system signal") to server 300. Thereafter, server 200 determines in S21A whether or not an EM request signal (see S12A described later) has been received from server 300, and does not proceed with the process unless an EM request signal has been received.

[0045] Server 300 starts the processing flow of S11 and S12A every time it receives a system signal from server 200. In S11, server 300 executes the same processing as S11 in FIG. 2. In the following S12A, server 300 requests server 200 to perform EM (energy management) that server 200 can execute and that will improve the state of the power grid PG, based on the detection result of S11 and the input / output characteristics indicated by the system signal received from server 200. Specifically, server 300 transmits an EM request signal indicating the content of the requested EM to server 200. When the processing of S12A is executed, the processing flow of S11 and S12A ends.

[0046] When server 200 receives an EM request signal from server 300 (YES in S21A), the process proceeds to S23. The processes from S23 onwards are the same as S23 to S27 in Fig. 2, and therefore will not be described repeatedly. However, in this modification, once the process of S27 is executed, the process returns to the first step (S31).

[0047] The stationary energy storage system according to the above modification also enables energy management to be performed with high accuracy using the energy storage device (battery pack 23). Furthermore, the control device (server 200 and battery ECU 232) according to the above modification also repeatedly selects an energy storage device (S31) while performing energy management. This allows the control device to change the EM control target and learning target in response to a request from server 300. While performing energy management, the control device sequentially interrupts the current of each of the multiple energy storage devices (S23) and acquires the output value of current sensor 233a of the learning target (the energy storage device whose current has been interrupted) (S26). This makes it possible to sequentially correct the output (detection error correction) of each current sensor in battery packs 23-1 to 23-N.

[0048] The configuration of the power storage device (battery pack) is not limited to the configuration shown in FIG. 1 . For example, the battery ECU 232 may be omitted. The server 200 may control the SMR 21 and the DC / DC conversion circuit 22 directly, without via the battery ECU 232. The power system PG is not limited to a large-scale AC grid, and may be a microgrid or a DC grid. In a configuration in which the power system PG is a DC grid, the DC / AC conversion circuit 10 may be omitted.
