Abstract
A refrigeration system includes a generator, a power generation engine, a refrigerator, an electric power converter, an output control unit, and a characteristic estimation unit that estimates a refrigerator characteristic of a refrigerator according to an outside air temperature and a temperature of a cooling target space. The refrigeration system includes an output calculation unit that calculates a drive output as a target drive output that optimizes an energy efficiency of the entire system based on the refrigerator characteristic estimated by the characteristic estimation unit, an engine characteristic of the power generation engine, and a generator characteristic of the generator. Further, the output control unit controls the drive output to approach the target drive output calculated by the output calculation unit.
