A method including: setting a weighting function based on an amount of change in impedance of a control target; and determining, for a power controller, a transfer function composed of a transfer function of an internal model obtainable by performing Laplace transform on the voltage reference value and a transfer function of a partial controller, the transfer function of the partial controller being for outputting the control output after receiving, as an input, an output of the transfer function of the internal model, wherein the determining includes determining the transfer function of the partial controller using an H&#x221e;control theory so as to reduce (i) a first amount of control obtainable by multiplying the control output and the weighting function and (ii) a second amount of control that is an output of the transfer function of the internal model.

Method for designing power controller, power controller, and power control device

Provided is a degradation state estimating method which decreases degradation in a secondary battery caused by estimating the degradation state. The degradation state estimating method is a method of estimating the degradation state of a secondary battery, includes:

Degradation state estimating method and degradation state estimating apparatus

A current control device is a current control device which supplies current to a load device by controlling a current source including a first electric appliance and a voltage source including a second electric appliance. The current control device includes: an obtaining unit which obtains information indicating non-linear components included in load current that is current supplied to the load device; a determining unit which determines a first current that includes the non-linear components; and a notifying unit which notifies the current source of a command value for causing the current source to output the first current to cause the current source to output the first current.

Current control device, current control method, and current control system

A power control apparatus includes: a control unit that controls discharged power of a first battery and discharged power of a second battery; and a power acquisition unit that acquires a total power to be supplied from the first and second batteries to a load device connected to the first and second batteries. The control unit: in a first period, changes the discharged power of the first battery according to a change in the acquired total power, and changes the discharged power of the second battery toward a first direction in which the discharged power of the second battery approximates the discharged power of the first battery; and, in a second period after the first period, changes the discharged power of the second battery according to the change in the acquired total power, and changes the discharged power of the first battery toward a second direction opposite the first direction.

Power control apparatus and power control method

The control device includes: an acquisition unit which acquires voltage information indicating a voltage applied to a capacitor provided between a power generation unit and a load via first and second power supply lines, and deterioration information indicating a state of deterioration of a storage battery connected to the power generation unit; a determination unit which compares the acquired voltage information with a reference voltage so as to detect a fluctuation of the voltage, and determines power to be outputted so as to suppress the fluctuation; and an informing unit which informs the storage battery of a current value corresponding to the power to be outputted, wherein the determination unit detects the state of deterioration of the storage battery using the deterioration information, and determines power to be outputted in accordance with the state of deterioration.
