The invention discloses a battery module and a distributed power system comprising the same. The battery module comprises a switch component, a control component and a battery pack, wherein the battery pack is formed by connecting a plurality of batteries in series; the control component comprises an initiating trigger port and a charging trigger port, which are applied to an initiating trigger signal and a charging trigger signal, which are received respectively; the control component controls the switch component to be closed according to the initiating trigger signal or the charging trigger signal, so that the battery pack works in a ready state or a charging state; after the switch component is closed, the control component monitors state information of the battery pack in real time when the battery pack supplies electricity to the outside through a power supply circuit or is charged through a charge circuit; and the switch component is controlled to be cut off when the state information of the battery pack is abnormal, and the battery pack enters the inactive state. According to the battery module and the distributed power system, the working safety and reliability of the battery module are significantly improved.
