1. Overview of technical solutions

The battery energy storage system consists of an energy storage battery, a master controller unit (BAMS), a single battery management unit (BMU), and a battery pack control and management unit (BCMU).

 

2. Internal communication of the energy storage system

2.1 Communication between energy storage BMS and EMS

BAMS uses a 7-inch display to display the relevant information of the entire PCS battery pack unit, and transmits the relevant information to the monitoring system EMS through Ethernet (RJ45). The information content includes battery cell information, battery pack information, and battery cluster information.

 

Upload information: BMS uploads battery cell (or group) information including: cell voltage, battery pack voltage, charge and discharge current, cell maximum SOC, cell minimum SOC, cell minimum SOH; battery pack SOC, cell maximum temperature, minimum cell temperature, ambient temperature, and related information such as battery abnormality alarms and protections.

 

Receiving information: BMS receives the battery operating parameters issued by the monitoring system EMS, such as voltage protection setting value, alarm setting value, temperature protection setting value, alarm setting value, SOC protection setting value, alarm setting value wait.

 

BAMS management server supports MODBUS communication protocol, in which MODBUS needs to define a special protocol point table; the communication interface is network RJ45 communication.

 

2.2 The communication between energy storage BMS and PCS

Since PCS only connects multiple sets of batteries, the data of BMS is summarized to BAMS, and then the BAMS is communicated with PCS to implement unidirectional transmission. BAMS is the main and PCS.

 

BMS sends information: The information sent by BMS has the status of the battery and the amount of warning. Including the maximum SOC, minimum SOC, battery pack maximum charging, maximum discharge, ambient temperature, battery minimum soH, etc. PCS should perform corresponding protection movements after receiving the BMS alarm information.

 

Communication interface: The CAN or RS485 communication interface is used between PCS and BMS.

 

Hard node information: In order to protect the timely and reliability, the energy storage system is reserved. When the BMS detects that the battery system meets the protection limit, the BMS will send the protection limit to PCS through the dry node.

 

2.3 Energy storage BMS three -layer architecture internal communication

The three -layer architecture of the BMS system is the single battery management BMU, the battery pack management BCMU, and the battery cluster (multi -group) management BAMS; the battery cluster management is also called a PCS battery unit management.

 

Energy storage BMS three -layer architecture internal communication

 

The first floor, the single battery management is called BMU, and there is 1 CAN2.0 bus. It consists of a battery collection unit BCU and battery equalized unit BEU, collect various monomer information (voltage, temperature) of the battery, calculate the analysis of the SOC and SOH of the battery, realize the active balance of the single battery, and upload the unilateral information of the monomer Give the battery unit unit layer BCMU; use CAN2.0 bus communication method.

 

In the second floor, the management of the battery pack is called BCMU, with 3 CAN2.0 bus, and 2 RS485 (backup) bus. Responsible for collecting various monomer battery information uploaded by BMU, collecting various information (group voltage, group temperature) of the battery pack, charging and discharge current of the battery pack, etc., calculate and analyze the SOC and SOH of the battery pack, and upload all information to the battery Cluster unit layer bams; use CAN2.0 bus communication mode.

 

In the third floor, the management of battery clusters is called BAMS, with 1 Ethernet, 2 CAN2.0 bus, and 1 RS485 (backup) bus. Responsible for collecting various battery information uploaded by BCMU, and upload all the information to the EMS system at the EMS system at the RJ45 interface; communicate with PCS, send the relevant abnormal information of the battery to the PCS (CAN or RS485 interface), and equipped with dry hardware Nodes for PCS.

 

2.4 Balance function of the BMS system

Battery energy storage system BMS focuses on two aspects, one is the data analysis and calculation of the battery, and the other is the balance of the battery. The battery management system provided by the energy storage power station has a two -way active non -destructive balance function, a balanced current of the maximum of 5A, and a balanced efficiency of more than 80%. At the same time, it can effectively screen a single battery with abnormal performance for alarm for replacement. The consistency of the group improves the efficiency and life of the battery pack, and ensure the normal operation of the entire energy storage system.

 

Single battery equilibrium unit:

 

Due to the differences in the capacity and performance of each battery due to the production process and other reasons, in the process of charging the battery pack, this difference will inevitably expand. During discharge, batteries with poor small capacity will be released; the capacity utilization rate of battery packs will become lower and lower. In the long run, this malignant cycle process will accelerate the damage of the battery. Therefore, the power and energy storage battery packs need to use a balanced circuit to extend the life of the battery pack.

 

Principles of battery equilibrium function implementation

 

The equilibrium system of the battery monitoring module mainly includes four steps: battery information collection → equilibrium rules operations → balanced state output → equilibrium implementation.
