Abstract
A drive system includes a first energy storage, a second energy storage, a voltage transformer, a drive apparatus, a detector, and circuitry. The first energy storage outputs a first voltage. The second energy storage outputs a second voltage different from the first voltage. The voltage transformer transforms at least one of the first voltage and the second voltage. The drive apparatus is driven with power supplied from at least one of the first energy storage and the second energy storage. The detector detects a fault in at least one of the first energy storage and the second energy storage. The circuitry is configured to control the voltage transformer in a first control mode or in a second control mode.
