Abstract
An energy storage system including an energy store with a plurality of flow batteries, a first voltage converter, an intermediate circuit connected to the first voltage converter, a second voltage converter connected to the intermediate circuit and a first of the batteries, a third voltage converter connected to the intermediate circuit and a second of the batteries, and a controller connected to the first, second, and third voltage converters. The controller is configured to simultaneously control a power flow direction of the second voltage converter and a power flow direction of the third voltage converter such that the power flow direction of the second voltage controller is in an opposite direction of the power flow direction of the third voltage controller, to control a power flow direction of the first voltage controller, and to charge and discharge the batteries.
