  In addition, since the function of each function part 59A-59C used when performing the cooperation process which cooperates between some distributed power supply systems is mentioned later, detailed description is abbreviate | omitted here.

  Next, cooperation processing for linking a plurality of distributed power supply systems configured as described above will be described. Hereinafter, an operation example when the own system 1 discharges power to the other systems 1 ′ and 1 ″ and an operation example when the own system 1 receives power from the other systems 1 ′ and 1 ″ are respectively shown. explain.

  First, an operation example when the own system 1 discharges electric power to the other systems 1 ′ and 1 ″ will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 3. However, here, it is assumed that the surplus calculation function unit 59B outputs information indicating the surplus power amount or the shortage power amount to the system cooperation function unit 59C.

  First, when the system cooperation function unit 59C receives an input of information indicating the surplus power amount or the shortage power amount output from the surplus calculation function unit 59B, whether the received information is information related to the surplus power amount. It is determined whether or not (step S1). If the result of determination in step S1 indicates NO (step S1: “No”), the process returns to the standby state in order to accept the input of information output from the surplus calculation function unit 59B (ie, the above step). The process returns to S1).

  When the result of determination in step S1 indicates that the information is related to surplus power (step S1: “Yes”), the system cooperation function unit 59C indicates the identification number of the system 1 and the amount of power that can be discharged. A dischargeable notification including information is sent to the other systems 1 ′ and 1 ″ via the distributed power supply system control communication line 20 (step S2).

  Next, the system cooperation function unit 59C determines whether or not an input of a discharge request notification addressed to the own system 1 has been received (step S3). When the result of the determination in step S3 indicates NO (step S3: “No”), the process returns to the standby state in order to accept the input of information output from the surplus calculation function unit 59B again.

  When the determination result in step S3 indicates that the input of the discharge request notification has been received (step S3: “Yes”), the system cooperation function unit 59C has received the identification number of the own system 1 and the input. A discharge execution notification including an identification number of the discharge destination system included in the discharge request notification and information indicating the amount of electric power allocated to the discharge destination system is sent to the discharge destination system via the distributed power supply system control communication line 20, and Information indicating the amount of electric power allocated to the discharge destination system is output to charge / discharge command value calculation function unit 59A (step S4).

  Subsequently, the charge / discharge command value calculation function unit 59A issues a system charge / discharge command to discharge the desired power amount (that is, the allocated power amount indicated by the information output from the system cooperation function unit 59C) to the discharge destination system. Output to the first power converter 53. After that, when receiving the system charge / discharge command from the charge / discharge command value calculation function unit 59A, the first power conversion unit 53 discharges a desired amount of power to the discharge destination system (step S5).

  Next, the system cooperation function unit 59C determines whether or not the amount of discharge to the discharge destination system has reached the allocated power amount shown in step S5 or the surplus power has been depleted before reaching the allocated power amount (that is, a predetermined amount). It is determined whether or not this value has been reached (step S6).

  If the result of determination in step S6 indicates that the allocated power amount has been reached or that surplus power has been depleted before reaching the allocated power amount (step S6: “Yes”), the system linkage function unit 59C A discharge end notification including the identification number of 1 and the identification number of the discharge destination system is sent to the discharge destination system via the distributed power source inter-system control communication line 20 (step S7), and the process proceeds to step S9 described later.

  If the result of determination in step S6 indicates no (step S6: “No”), the system cooperation function unit 59C determines whether or not an input of a discharge stop request notification has been received from the discharge destination system (step S8). ). If the result of determination in step S8 indicates no (step S8: “No”), the process returns to step S6.

  When the result of determination in step S8 indicates that the input of the discharge stop request notification has been received (step S8: “Yes”), the system cooperation function unit 59C performs charge / discharge so as to stop the discharge to the discharge destination system. Request is made to the command value calculation function unit 59A. Then, the charge / discharge command value calculation function unit 59A outputs a system charge / discharge stop command for stopping the discharge to the discharge destination system to the first power conversion unit 53. After that, when receiving the system charge / discharge stop command from the charge / discharge command value calculation function unit 59A, the first power conversion unit 53 stops the discharge to the discharge destination system (step S9) and ends the operation.

  As described above, based on the amount of power managed by the own system 1, only when there is surplus power that can be discharged, a discharge enable notification is sent to the other systems 1 ′ and 1 ″ to discharge the power. In addition, since the discharge to the other systems 1 ′ and 1 ″ can be stopped when there is no surplus power that can be discharged, the operation of the own system 1 can be performed even if the power supply / demand situation of the own system 1 changes. Can be prioritized.

  Next, an operation example when the own system 1 receives power from the other systems 1 ′ and 1 ″ will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 4. However, here, it is assumed that the surplus calculation function unit 59B outputs information indicating the surplus power amount or the shortage power amount to the system cooperation function unit 59C.

  First, the system cooperation function unit 59C determines whether or not the input of the dischargeable notification sent from the other systems 1 ′ and 1 ″ has been received via the distributed power supply inter-system control communication line 20 (Step S11). ). If the result of the determination in step S11 indicates NO (step S11: “No”), the process returns to the standby state in order to accept the input of the dischargeable notification sent from the other system (that is, step S11 above). Return to processing.)

  When the determination result in step S11 indicates that the input of the dischargeable notification has been received (step S11: “Yes”), the system cooperation function unit 59C receives the information output from the surplus calculation function unit 59B. After the reception, it is determined whether or not the information that has received the input is information related to an insufficient power amount (step S12). If the result of the determination in step S12 indicates NO (step S12: “No”), the process returns to the standby state in order to accept an input of a discharge enable notification from another system.

  When the result of the determination in step S12 indicates that the information is related to the amount of insufficient power (step S12: “Yes”), the system cooperation function unit 59C is capable of discharging discharged from the other systems 1 ′ and 1 ″. Compare the amount of power that can be discharged indicated by the information included in the notification with the amount of insufficient power indicated by the information output from the surplus calculation function unit 59B, and check whether the amount of power that can be discharged is greater than the amount of insufficient power It is determined whether or not (step S13).

  When the result of determination in step S13 indicates that the result is large (step S13: “Yes”), the system cooperation function unit 59C sets the amount of power requested to the discharge request destination system to be equal to the insufficient power amount ( In step S14), the process proceeds to step S16 described later.

  If the result of the determination in step S13 indicates NO (step S13: “No”), the system cooperation function unit 59C notifies the discharge request that the electric energy requested of the discharge request destination system has been input in step S11. Is set to be equal to the amount of electric power that can be discharged indicated by the information included in (step S15), and the process proceeds to step S16 described later.

  Next, the system cooperation function unit 59C sets the identification number of the own system 1, the identification number of the discharge request destination system included in the discharge enable notification received in step S11, and the step S14 or S15. A discharge request notification including information indicating the required power amount is sent to the discharge request destination system via the distributed power supply system control communication line 20 (step S16).

  Subsequently, the system cooperation function unit 59C determines whether or not an input of a discharge execution notification sent from the discharge request destination system in response to the discharge request notification has been received (step S17). When the result of the determination in step S17 indicates NO (step S17: “No”), the process returns to the standby state in order to accept the input of the dischargeable notification sent from the other system again.

  When the determination result in step S17 indicates that the input of the discharge execution notification has been received (step S17: “Yes”), the system cooperation function unit 59C is included in the discharge request notification sent in step S16. Information indicating the required power amount is output to the charge / discharge command value calculation function unit 59A. The charge / discharge command value calculation function unit 59A then charges a system charge / discharge command for charging a desired power amount from the discharge request destination system (that is, the required power amount indicated by the information output from the system cooperation function unit 59C). Is output to the first power converter 53. After that, when receiving the system charge / discharge command from the charge / discharge command value calculation function unit 59A, the first power conversion unit 53 charges a desired amount of power from the discharge request destination system (step S18).

  Next, the system cooperation function unit 59C determines whether or not an input of a discharge end notification has been received from the discharge request destination system (step S19). If the result of determination in step S19 indicates that the input of discharge end notification has been received (step S19: “Yes”), the process proceeds to step S22 described later.

  If the result of the determination in step S19 indicates NO (step S19: “No”), the system cooperation function unit 59C has reached the required power amount or the amount of charge from the discharge request destination system has reached the required power amount. It is determined whether or not the storage amount has been satisfied before (that is, whether or not a predetermined value has been reached) (step S20). If the result of determination in step S20 indicates no (step S20: “No”), the process returns to step S19.

  When the result of determination in step S20 indicates that the required power amount has been reached or that the stored power amount has been satisfied before reaching the required power amount (step S20: “Yes”), the system cooperation function unit 59C A discharge stop request notification including the identification number 1 and the identification number of the discharge request destination system is sent to the discharge request destination system via the distributed power supply system control communication line 20 (step S21).

  Thereafter, the system cooperation function unit 59C requests the charge / discharge command value calculation function unit 59A to stop charging from the discharge request destination system. Then, the charge / discharge command value calculation function unit 59A outputs a system charge / discharge stop command for stopping the charging from the discharge request destination system to the first power conversion unit 53. After that, when receiving the system charge / discharge stop command from the charge / discharge command value calculation function unit 59A, the first power conversion unit 53 stops the charge from the discharge request destination system (step S22) and ends the operation.

  Note that the processing in steps S11 to S22 can be executed even if power is not insufficient as long as an input of a dischargeable notification sent from another system is accepted.

  A supplementary description of the distributed power supply system will be given below.

  In the above description, the case where the number of distributed power supply systems on the discharge side and the number of distributed power supply systems on the power receiving side have a one-to-one relationship has been described. The same cooperation process can be executed even in the case of. When the number of systems on the discharge side and the number of systems on the power receiving side are in a one-to-multiple relationship, the discharge side system sends a dischargeable notification to the power receiving side system when there is a surplus in the amount of electricity stored. As a result, the system on the discharge side can execute power supply to the plurality of systems on the power receiving side in parallel.

  Further, the system cooperation function unit 59C sets a priority for each system in advance (that is, prescribes which system is preferentially discharged), so that even if a plurality of discharge request notifications are received, It becomes possible to perform discharge based on the set priority. In addition to the priority, the system cooperation function unit 59C sets the upper limit value of the power supply amount for each system in advance, and does not execute power supply biased to one system, It becomes possible to execute a certain amount of power supply. The same setting can be applied to the system cooperation function unit 59C in the power receiving system.

  Furthermore, the amount of electric power that can be discharged indicated by the information included in the notification that discharge is possible indicates the amount of surplus electric power in one distributed power supply system as a whole, but is not limited to this. For example, the electric power received from the electric power system 10 It is also possible to divide the surplus power amount related to power, the surplus power amount related to the power storage unit 57, and the surplus power amount related to the power generation unit 58, and to include these surplus power amounts as dischargeable power amounts in the dischargeable notification. It is. It is also possible to include an evaluation index indicating the origin, quality, and cost of each surplus power amount in the dischargeable notification.

  According to the first embodiment described above, a plurality of distributed power supply devices are configured with the power management unit 59 including the charge / discharge command value calculation function unit 59A, the surplus calculation function unit 59B, and the system cooperation function unit 59C. A power supply and demand can be adjusted by linking a plurality of distributed power supply devices without providing a management system for centralized management.
