High-voltage transformerless battery energy storage systems (BESS) support large-scale integration of renewable energy, in which intra-phase state of charge (SOC) balancing critically affects battery cluster safety and utilization efficiency. For systems employing carrier phase-shift modulation, the suppression of output current harmonics during the SOC balancing process has not been explicitly considered in existing intra-phase balancing strategies. Since the balancing process typically lasts for several minutes, the resulting harmonic currents may continuously deteriorate grid power quality. To address this issue, a fast intra-phase SOC balancing control strategy incorporating output current total harmonic distortion (THD) constraints is developed, enabling rapid SOC balancing while satisfying grid current quality requirements.
The generation mechanism of harmonic currents during the balancing process is first investigated. Fourier analysis indicates that the output current THD is positively correlated with the amplitude of the fundamental-frequency component superimposed on submodules, and reducing this amplitude by adjusting the balancing coefficient is beneficial for harmonic suppression. In addition, the system operating point also influences the resulting THD. Based on these observations, the concept and boundary conditions of a “recommended balancing region” are defined. When the system operating point is adjustable, constraining balancing actions within this region helps reduce the risk of THD exceedance.
When the system operating point is determined by dispatch commands and cannot be adjusted, an intra-phase SOC balancing strategy subject to THD constraints is formulated. First, a fast calculation model of port harmonics is established by judicious selection of dominant harmonic orders and piecewise linearization of Bessel functions. Harmonic currents generated during the balancing process are utilized for online estimation of grid-side impedance. By combining the fast harmonic model with the estimated impedance, accurate computation of output current THD can be achieved within a single control cycle. Second, a bisection-based optimization algorithm for the balancing coefficient is designed using the real-time THD and a specified THD limit. An adjustable convergence tolerance is employed to balance optimization speed and accuracy. With the optimized balancing coefficient, output current THD remains within prescribed limits throughout the entire intra-phase SOC balancing process, while maintaining high balancing efficiency.
Simulations are conducted on a 10 kV/5 MW/5 MWh system model implemented on the PLECS platform. The proposed fast THD calculation model maintains a relative error below 5% across the considered operating range. Without the proposed optimization algorithm, output current THD reaches 5.33% and 13.96% under different operating conditions, corresponding to more than 200% of the specified limits of 2% and 5%. With the proposed algorithm applied, THD is rapidly reduced to 1.97% and 4.91%, satisfying the corresponding constraints.
Simulation and theoretical analyses confirm: (1) The fundamental-frequency components superimposed on submodules are the key factor influencing the output current THD. (2) When the system's operating point is adjustable, operating within the proposed “recommended balancing region” effectively mitigates the severity of THD exceedance. (3) The proposed fast harmonic calculation model enables accurate online estimation of output current THD during the balancing process. Building on this, the designed balancing coefficient optimization algorithm maximizes the balancing speed while strictly satisfying the constraints on output current quality.
