In the current field of intelligent operation and maintenance of energy storage systems, the refined detection of battery cells in energy storage systems has become a major challenge. Recently, Sermatec Energy, an energy digitalization operator with energy storage as its core, launched the industry's first "battery diagnostic tool" to conduct a comprehensive physical examination of batteries and increase energy storage safety. This tool will effectively solve the industry's thorny problem of high cost and difficulty in the field of intelligent operation and maintenance of energy storage systems, and conduct a comprehensive "physical examination" for energy storage batteries to further improve the safety and reliability of batteries. It is worth mentioning that the tool has obtained software copyright, and Sermatec Energy's technical strength and innovation capabilities have been authoritatively recognized.
Sermatec Energy noted that due to differences in the electrochemical properties of battery cells and different specifications of the acquisition system, it is difficult for energy storage system manufacturers to conduct refined testing of energy storage equipment. Traditional battery testing tools are limited to simple threshold judgments on temperature and pressure differences, and cannot conduct refined analysis of complex scenarios such as battery consistency and abnormal trends. This is highly dependent on the professional knowledge and experience accumulation of business experts.
With the continuous increase in the shipment volume of energy storage system manufacturers, detection has become a difficult problem that needs to be solved urgently. This is not only related to the after-sales cost after delivery, but also directly affects the safety of energy storage equipment. Based on the knowledge accumulation of many years of detection, testing, and operation and maintenance personnel, Sermatec Energy has transformed the battery determination method based on experience of technical experts into algorithm logic, and developed the industry's first battery status diagnosis system that can be applied to factory inspection of energy storage systems and continuous operation and maintenance of power stations, and can batch determine the consistency of battery cells in the stack - "Sermatec Energy Battery Diagnostic Tool", providing strong protection for the safety and reliability of energy storage equipment.
There are no similar products on the market at present. This innovative achievement of Sermatec Energy has undoubtedly opened up a new direction in the field of energy storage safety. According to the Sermatec Energy R&D team, the battery diagnostic tool supports the analysis of EMS and BMS charging and discharging raw data from different manufacturers and specifications, simulates the judgment method of business experts, and establishes corresponding abnormal judgment algorithm models according to different scenarios. The tool can make in-depth judgments on the raw data of battery cell charging and discharging, visualize abnormal errors, and analyze the causes of abnormalities in detail, thereby greatly saving the time investment of business personnel, reducing the professional requirements of business personnel for routine battery analysis, and improving the efficiency of factory inspection.
In terms of technical advantages, the Sermatec energy storage battery diagnostic platform is rich in functions. It not only supports parsing of files exported from host computers of different specifications, but also supports automatic analysis of errors and viewing of response error information. It is easy to operate and does not need to be integrated into a specific terminal. It can be installed and used at any time through the software installation package. The detection dimensions are richer and the convenience of use is higher. In addition, the tool can also realize refined battery cell status judgment, support imitating the judgment rules of the business party, and automatically parse, analyze, and display abnormal details of source data in different formats exported by the host computer.
In terms of key technological breakthroughs, the tool supports parsing file formats exported by different host terminals, and has currently parsed charging and discharging power data from multiple mainstream EMS and BMS suppliers. At the same time, it also supports the judgment of complex business scenarios, converting the empirical judgment logic of the business side into a feasible algorithm solution, and has supported the judgment of more than ten scenarios such as high-charge and low-discharge of battery cells, low-charge and low-discharge of battery cells, and voltage/temperature outliers of modules within a cluster.
In addition, this battery diagnostic tool has a wide range of application scenarios, including energy storage equipment factory inspection scenarios and power station operation and maintenance data detection. Its advantage is that as a tool for analyzing abnormal trends in battery cells, it can help business personnel discover and handle abnormal points in advance, ensure the smooth, efficient and safe operation of equipment, reduce customer complaints, and improve customer satisfaction. Through the battery diagnostic tool, Sermatec Energy can support large-scale batch refinement of factory battery cells. Compared with other manufacturers, Sermatec Energy's energy storage system will be more secure.
In summary, with the increasing shipments of energy storage system manufacturers and the increasing demand for refined testing of battery cells before leaving the factory, Sermatec Energy's battery diagnostic tool has a good market prospect. It will not only solve the problems faced by energy storage system manufacturers, but also provide strong guarantees for the safety and reliability of energy storage equipment, and promote the healthy development of the entire energy storage industry.
