Abstract

Disclosed is a power supply system. A power supply system according to an embodiment includes a system control unit configured to set a first system droop curve for a plurality of batteries and a charging control unit configured to control charging/discharging of the plurality of batteries on the basis of the first system droop curve.

Claims

1. A power supply system comprising a battery energy storage system comprising:

a system control unit configured to set a first system droop curve for a plurality of batteries; and

a charging control unit configured to control charging/discharging of the plurality of batteries on the basis of the first system droop curve.

2. The power supply system according to claim 1,

wherein the charging control unit obtains state of charge (SOC) level information from the plurality of batteries,

wherein the system control unit generates a second system droop curve on the basis of the SOC level information obtained from the charging control unit, and equally sets the second droop curve for the plurality of batteries.

3. The power supply system according to claim 2, wherein the system control unit sets the first system droop curve on the basis of at least one of preset data or a system frequency.

4. The power supply system according to claim 3, wherein the system control unit sets the second system droop curve on the basis of an average of the SOC level information obtained from the plurality of batteries.

5. The power supply system according to claim 3,

wherein the system control unit sets the second system droop curve on the basis of a piece of the SOC level information which has a largest difference with a reference value among pieces of the SOC level information obtained from the plurality of batteries,

wherein the reference value is at least one of a value set at an initial system designing time or a value based on the system frequency.

6. The power supply system according to claim 1,

wherein the charging control unit obtains SOC level information from the plurality of batteries,

wherein the system control unit determines a reference frequency for generating a second system droop curve on the basis of the SOC level information obtained from the charging control unit.

7. The power supply system according to claim 6, wherein the reference frequency is determined for each battery.

8. The power supply system according to claim 6,

wherein the system control unit transmits the determined reference frequency to the charging control unit,

wherein the charging control unit generates the second system droop curve on the basis of the received reference frequency, and controls the batteries on the basis of the second system droop curve.
