Abstract
A power generation device is a primary excitation variable speed pumped-storage power generation device or a primary excitation variable speed power generation device. When an output of a pump turbine or a water turbine is insufficient for a power output equivalent in a vicinity of a fully opened guide vane opening and the rotational speed decreases, an increase in a generator motor output command or a generator output command is stopped, and the stop of the increase in the generator motor output command or the generator output command is canceled after the rotational speed is increased.
