Technologies for Energy Storage Power Stations Safety Operation: Battery State Evaluation Survey and a Critical Analysis

As large-scale lithium-ion battery energy storage power facilities are built, the issues of safety operations become more complex. The existing difficulties revolve around effective battery health evaluation, cell-to-cell variation evaluation, circulation, and resonance suppression, and more. Based on this, this paper first reviews battery health evaluation methods based on various methods and summarizes the selection of existing health factors in data-driven methods. Secondly, the paper discusses the new research hotspots in the existing battery state evaluation technologies from the perspectives of state evaluation using data fragments and edge computing. Thirdly, we focus and discuss on the safety operation technologies of energy storage stations, including the issues of inconsistency, balancing, circulation, and resonance. To address these issues, we present an intelligent inspection robot, enabling real-time data interaction with the EMS and fulfilling rapid inspection and real-time diagnosis. Above all, we focus on the safety operation challenges for energy storage power stations and give our views and validate them with practical engineering applications, building the foundation of the next-generation techniques that support the development of new power systems.
