Abstract

The invention relates to an electrochemical composite storage system and to an electrical circuit comprising an electrochemical composite storage system of this type. The circuit and system comprise branches (ST 1 , ST 2 , ST 3 , ST 4 , ST 5 , ST 6 ), which are connected in parallel, of electrochemical storage modules ( 10 ), said storage modules ( 10 ) having first connection terminals and each module having an electrical circuit. The composite storage system is designed to operate the branches (ST 1 , ST 2 , ST 3 , ST 4 , ST 5 , ST 6 ) inside the composite storage system optionally as a current source or a voltage source, by means of the electrical circuits.

Claims (15)

1. An electrochemical composite storage system comprising

strings (ST 1 , ST 2 , ST 3 , ST 4 , ST 5 , ST 6 ) of electrochemical storage modules ( 10 ), which strings are connected in parallel,

wherein each of the storage modules ( 10 ) have first connection terminals and a two-pole network, wherein the composite storage system is designed to operate the strings (ST 1 , ST 2 , ST 3 , ST 4 , ST 5 , ST 6 ) within the electrochemical composite storage system selectively as a current source or as a voltage source by means of the two-pole network of the storage modules in the string.

2. The electrochemical composite storage system as claimed in claim 1 , which is designed to operate a first string (ST 1 , ST 2 , ST 3 , ST 4 , ST 5 , ST 6 ) as a voltage source and a second string (ST 1 , ST 2 , ST 3 , ST 4 , ST 5 , ST 6 ) as a current source.

3. The electrochemical composite storage system as claimed in claim 2 , which is designed to operate all of the strings (ST 1 , ST 2 , ST 3 , ST 4 , ST 5 , ST 6 ), with the exception of the first string (ST 1 , ST 2 , ST 3 , ST 4 , ST 5 , ST 6 ), as a current source or in a blocking mode.

4. The electrochemical composite storage system as claimed in claim 1 , which is designed to operate a first storage module ( 10 ) of a string (ST 1 , ST 2 , ST 3 , ST 4 , ST 5 , ST 6 ) as a current source, and to operate a further storage module ( 10 ) of the same string (ST 1 , ST 2 , ST 3 , ST 4 , ST 5 , ST 6 ) as a voltage source or in a bypass mode.

5. The electrochemical composite storage system as claimed in claim 1 , which is designed to operate all further storage modules ( 10 ) of the same string (ST 1 , ST 2 , ST 3 , ST 4 , ST 5 , ST 6 ) as voltage sources or in a bypass mode.

6. The electrochemical composite storage system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein operation as a current source is realized by buck or boost operation.

7. The electrochemical composite storage system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the composite storage system is designed to operate parallel strings (ST 1 , ST 2 , ST 3 , ST 4 , ST 5 , ST 6 ) as an alternating current source.

8. The electrochemical composite storage system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein each string (ST 1 , ST 2 , ST 3 , ST 4 , ST 5 , ST 6 ) comprises a contactor (S 1 , S 2 , S 3 , S 4 , S 5 , S 6 ) by means of which the string (ST 1 , ST 2 , ST 3 , ST 4 , ST 5 , ST 6 ) is designed to be incorporated into the composite storage system or disconnected from the composite storage system.

9. The electrochemical composite storage system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the storage modules ( 10 ) are UniBB modules.

10. An electrical circuit comprising

a load (Z) and

a first composite storage system (ST 1 , ST 2 , ST 3 ) and a second composite storage system (ST 4 , ST 5 , ST 6 ) as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein the load (Z) is arranged electrically between the first composite storage system (ST 1 , ST 2 , ST 3 ) and the second composite storage system (ST 4 , ST 5 , ST 6 ).
