Abstract
The present invention relates to a technique for implementing a bidirectional DC-DC converter applied to an energy storage system. The bidirectional DC-DC converter includes a magnetically coupled inductor and a charging/discharging voltage storage unit between a DC link power supply and a battery power supply, and implements a high gain through a two-step voltage transformation process when a charging process or discharging process is performed. Thus, the bidirectional DC-DC converter can reduce the construction cost of the battery cell, guarantee a high voltage available range, and reduce the influence of leakage inductance.
