The magnetic pump is arranged in the pipeline unit, the magnetic pump and the pile unit are arranged in the same frame, and the magnetic pump is respectively arranged corresponding to the positive electrode liquid storage tank and the negative electrode liquid storage tank so as to drive positive electrode electrolyte to flow between the positive electrode liquid storage tank and the pile unit and drive negative electrode electrolyte to flow between the negative electrode liquid storage tank and the pile unit.
18. An application of an energy storage power station is characterized in that,
Providing the energy storage power station of claim 17;
the positive electrode electrolyte is contained in the positive electrode liquid storage tank, and the negative electrode electrolyte is contained in the negative electrode liquid storage tank;
Transporting all the frames of the energy storage power station to a destination, so that the liquid storage tank containing electrolyte is integrally transported to the destination along with the frames;
Stacking the frames transported to a destination and secured by the corner pieces;
the pipe unit is connected between the corresponding liquid storage tank and the pile unit so that positive electrolyte can flow between the positive liquid storage tank and the pile unit and negative electrolyte can flow between the negative liquid storage tank and the pile unit, and thus current can be formed in the pile unit.
