The Power Conversion System is the core equipment of energy storage systems, playing a key role in bidirectional conversion of electrical energy: during charging, it converts alternating current (AC) generated by the power grid or new energy into direct current (DC) and stores it in the battery; When discharging, invert the DC power to AC power for use by the load. As a "bridge" connecting energy storage batteries with the grid/load, the performance of PCS directly affects the efficiency, stability, and economy of the energy storage system.
With the increasing proportion of global wind and solar power generation and the surge in demand for power system flexibility, the energy storage inverter market is experiencing an explosion. According to GGII data, the global shipment of energy storage PCS will exceed 150GW in 2023; It is expected that the market size will exceed 100 billion yuan by 2025. In terms of technological iteration, innovative solutions such as photovoltaic energy storage integration, high-voltage cascading, and grid forming are becoming the focus of the industry, promoting the upgrade of PCS from a single inverter function to a "smart grid regulator".
As the core device connecting energy storage devices with the power grid and loads, the technical route of energy storage inverters mainly revolves around the evolution of topology, control strategies, and application scenarios. According to different access methods, energy storage inverters can be roughly divided into three categories: grid connected, off grid, and DC type. Grid connected inverters are often used on the grid side or in industrial and commercial scenarios, and need to support functions such as off grid switching, frequency and voltage regulation, etc; Off grid type is suitable for microgrid or islanded operating environments, requiring independent voltage and frequency support capabilities; DC converters are mainly used in photovoltaic DC systems or DC microgrids, achieving voltage matching and energy regulation through DC/DC conversion.
At the application level, energy storage inverters are serving an increasingly diverse range of scenarios, such as grid frequency regulation, industrial and commercial peak shaving and valley filling, and photovoltaic energy storage combined power generation, which require higher requirements for their fast response and multi-mode operation capabilities. Especially in photovoltaic storage systems, the inverter not only needs to achieve bidirectional energy flow, but also needs to coordinate photovoltaic output and energy storage charging and discharging strategies to improve the overall system's economy and stability.
