Title:
ENERGY STORAGE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2004/105209
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention relates to storage of electrical energy in a number of electrical storage modules, which are connected in series to one another. A DC-system voltage (VTOT) is received and DC-to-DC converted into one voltage fraction (V1, V2) per electrical storage module. The respective voltage fractions (V1, V2) are delivered to each module and varied over time (t) within an interval (VD) around a respective nominal module voltage (V1n, V2n). Thereby, the charging voltage is temporarily increased to a level which is sufficiently high to obtain an improved load capacity for each module. At the same time, the overall voltage over the electrical storage modules may be held at a harmless level with respect to any units that are included in the relevant electric circuitry.
