Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a charging-discharging apparatus and a method of controlling thereof according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes: a stage portion including a plurality of arrangement regions for accommodating each of a plurality of battery groups grouping neighboring battery cells among a plurality of battery cells and a plurality of temperature sensor for measuring the temperature of the plurality of arrangement regions; a charging-discharging module configured to charge and discharge the plurality of battery cells; a plurality of blowers configured to flow air toward the plurality of arrangement regions; and a controller to configured to control the plurality of temperature sensors and the plurality of blowers; wherein the controller individually may change the airflow, which is the air rate per unit time of the plurality of blowers, based on each measured temperature measured by the plurality of temperature sensors.
