In order to ensure the rated dischargeable energy of the battery at the grid connection point and reduce the initial investment cost of the energy storage power plant, operators generally choose a method of using energy storage products with small granularity several times to supplement during the entire life cycle of the energy storage power plant.
[0004] Generally, conventional industrial and commercial energy storage cabinets do not have the function of directly connecting and coupling with energy storage power generation, and cannot easily replenish large-scale energy storage power plants. The heat dissipation efficiency of conventional industrial and commercial air-cooled energy storage systems is low, the energy consumption is high, the temperature control range is limited, and the impact on the battery cell life is large.
