Abstract
The present invention is related to a control method for controlling a power converter including a first power conversion circuitand a second power conversion circuitby using a control circuit. The first power conversion circuitis connected to a solar cell moduleand a capacitor, converts output power of the solar cell module, and outputs the converted power to the capacitor, the second power conversion circuitis connected to the capacitor, and converts a voltage at a connection terminal connected to the capacitor. The control method comprises step of controlling operation of the second power conversion circuitbased on the output voltage of the solar cell module, to use output power of the second power conversion circuitfor charging the capacitor
