Description

  The present invention relates to a power supply system that supplies power to a load device connected to a power supply path, a power supply control device, a power supply control method in the power supply system, and a program.

  In recent years, in data centers, communication stations, and the like, construction of a DC power supply system that supplies DC power to various load devices such as routers and servers has been promoted. This DC power supply system converts a commercial AC power into a DC power having a predetermined voltage by a DC power supply device having an AC power system (commercial power system) as an input, and a plurality of loads via a power supply path (power supply line). Supply to the device.

  In this DC power supply system, an AC power system is used as a power source. In the event that an abnormality such as a system fault occurs in the AC power system and a DC voltage cannot be normally output from the DC power supply device to the load device, a fuel cell, an engine generator, or the like may be provided as a power backup. . The above fuel cell, engine generator, and the like require fuel for power generation.

  On the other hand, the solar power generation device can generate power without the need for fuel and can be used as a backup power source. Such a solar power generation device is used in combination with a power conditioner (Power Conditioning Subsystem) that converts electric power generated by itself. This power conditioner (sometimes simply referred to as “PCS” in the following description) boosts (or steps down) the output voltage of the photovoltaic power generator and supplies it to the power feeding path of the power feeding system. A control function is provided for controlling the output power in accordance with the amount of power generated by the power generation device or the like.

  In addition, there exists an electric power supply system of the inverter for grid connection (patent document 1). The power supply system described in Patent Literature 1 prevents the most important consumer from receiving a power supply from the shared storage battery among a plurality of consumers sharing the shared storage battery. For this purpose, the power supply system distributes power to consumers based on the priority information.

  By the way, when the PCS described above is connected to a power supply path (power supply line) from the DC power supply device and connected to the output of the DC power supply device, the PCS detects the voltage of the power supply path. For this reason, when power is not supplied to the power supply path due to a power failure of the commercial power system that hits the power source of the DC power supply device or a failure of the DC power supply device, the PCS cannot detect a voltage for operating itself. In that case, the PCS continues the operation by switching the operation state linked to the output of the DC power supply device to the independent operation. The PCS can supply power to the power feeding path within the range of the current capacity that can be supplied in this self-sustaining operation state. However, if the current capacity flowing through the load device is greater than the current capacity that can be supplied from the PCS, or if the solar power generation device cannot obtain a predetermined amount of sunshine, the output power of the solar power generation device decreases from the PCS. When the current capacity that can be supplied decreases, the PCS cannot continue to operate. Once the output of the PCS has been stopped, the voltage cannot be output to the power supply path until the operating voltage for starting the PCS is supplied even if the above case is resolved.

  In addition, when the power generated by the photovoltaic power generation device is supplied to the load device via the PCS in a state where the DC power supply is interrupted, the load device that supplies the power is selected and the total power consumed by the load device is selected. If the amount of power is not limited, the total amount of power may exceed the amount of power that can be supplied from the PCS. In this case as well, there is a problem that the PCS cannot continue to operate as described above.

  In addition, when a DC power supply device fails in a building or the like, electric power may be supplied only to a load device in a part of the area of the building due to the power generation limit of the solar power generation device. In such a case, a person who is located in an area where power is not supplied to the load device may feel uneasy due to, for example, the lights turning off and the room darkening, or the work that has been performed cannot be continued. It is extremely inconvenient. For this reason, it is desired to smoothly move a person located in an area where power is not supplied to the area where power is supplied. In order to realize this, it is necessary to accurately convey information about the area where power is supplied to a person located in an area where power is not supplied.

[First Embodiment]
(Schematic configuration of DC power supply system 1)
FIG. 1 shows a schematic configuration of a DC power supply system 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The DC power supply system 1 is an example of a DC power supply system installed in a building such as a data center or a communication station.
A DC power supply system 1 shown in FIG. 1 includes a power receiving facility 2, a DC power supply (REC) 3, a power supply path to a load device, switch units 101 to 116, a photovoltaic power generation device (PV) 4, and a power conditioner (PCS). 5, a power storage device (BATT) 7, a PCS 8, and a power supply device 6.
The power receiving facility 2 includes a circuit breaker (CB) 2A, a transformer 2C, and a protective relay 2D. The protective relay 2D includes, for example, an overcurrent relay, a ground fault relay, an undervoltage relay (all not shown) and the like, and when these relays detect an abnormal state according to each detection condition, The signal is sent to the circuit breaker 2A to open the circuit breaker 2A.
For example, the overcurrent relay opens the circuit breaker 2A when it detects that an overcurrent has flowed through the circuit, and the ground fault relay breaks down when it detects that a ground fault has occurred in the circuit or equipment. When the undervoltage relay detects that the commercial power cannot be received from the commercial power system PS due to a power failure or an accident, the undervoltage relay opens the breaker 2A.

The circuit breaker 2A is provided with an auxiliary contact 2B mechanically interlocked with the main contact, and the open / closed state of the auxiliary contact 2B will be described later as a contact signal Aux indicating the open / closed state of the circuit breaker 2A. It is output to the power supply device 6. That is, the DC power supply system 1 can detect from the contact signal Aux that the commercial power cannot be received from the commercial power system PS due to a power failure or an accident.
In addition, as a method for detecting that the commercial power system PS has failed, for example, a voltage sensor (voltage detection relay) is provided on the secondary side of the transformer 2C, and the commercial power system PS has failed due to this voltage sensor. You may detect that.
In addition, a voltage sensor and a voltage detection circuit for detecting that the commercial power system PS has a power failure are provided in the DC power supply device 3, and this voltage sensor and voltage detection circuit detects that the commercial power system PS has a power failure. May be.

  The transformer 2C steps down a high-voltage AC voltage (for example, three-phase AC 6600V) supplied from the commercial power system PS to a predetermined low-voltage AC voltage (for example, three-phase AC 400V), and converts the low-voltage AC voltage to a DC power supply (REC). ) 3 is supplied. The DC power supply device 3 is a rectifier that converts commercial AC power into DC power, and converts the low-voltage AC voltage input from the transformer 2C into a DC voltage of a predetermined voltage. For example, the DC power supply device 3 is an AC / DC converter, and outputs a DC voltage of 380 V to power supply paths P11 and N11 that are main power supply lines.

A solar power generation device 4 is connected to the power feeding paths P11 and N11 via a switch unit 101 and a power conditioner (PCS) 5. The switch unit 101 includes a switch for connecting / opening between the PCS 5 of the photovoltaic power generation device 4 and the power feeding paths P11 and N11. When the switch unit 101 is in the connected state, the PCS 5 is connected to the DC power supply device 3. Enables linkage to the output of.
In addition, a power storage device (BATT) 7 including a storage battery is connected to the power supply paths P11 and N11 via the switch unit 102 and the PCS8. The switch unit 102 includes a switch for connecting / opening between the PCS 8 of the power storage device 7 and the power supply paths P11 and N11. Enable to connect to
Moreover, the switch part 111 to the switch part 116 includes a switch for opening and closing the electric circuit in the power supply paths P28 and N28 from the power supply paths P21 and N21. Further, the power supply paths P11 and P21 to the power supply path P28 indicate positive-side power supply lines, and the power supply paths N11 and N21 to the power supply path N28 indicate negative-electrode-side power supply lines.
In the following description, the switch units 101 and 102 and the switch units 111 to 116 are collectively referred to as “switch unit 100”.

  The power storage device 7 includes a secondary battery such as a lithium ion battery, a lead battery, or a nickel metal hydride battery. The power storage device 7 is charged with power from the DC power supply device 3 via the PCS 8 during normal times when the output of the DC power supply device 3 is not in a power failure state where the output is stopped. When the power storage device 7 is in a power failure state in which the output of the DC power supply device 3 is stopped (hereinafter referred to as “at the time of a power failure of the DC power supply device 3”), the stored power is supplied via the PCS 8 to the power supply path P11. And N11. Note that the PCS 8 can also perform charge / discharge control of the power storage device 7 for the purpose of peak cut of electric power used in normal times.

  The solar power generation device (PV) 4 includes a solar cell array (solar cell) 4a. The solar cell array 4a converts solar energy into electric energy and outputs it to the PCS 5. The PCS 5 supplies the power generated by the solar power generation device 4 to the power supply paths P11 and N11 and supplies the power from the DC power supply apparatus 3 to the power supply paths P11 and N11 at the normal time when the DC power supply 3 supplies DC power. Reduce the amount of power used. Further, when a power failure occurs in the DC power supply device 3, the PCS 5 receives a signal indicating that this power failure has occurred from the DC power supply device 3 and the like, and temporarily stops its operation. Thereafter, power supply is started from the PCS 8 of the backup power storage device 7 to the power supply paths P11 and N11. Eventually, the charge accumulated in the power storage device 7 is insufficient or exhausted, and the power supply path P11 When power cannot be supplied to N11, the PCS 5 starts again.

That is, the PCS 5 is activated when power cannot be supplied from the power storage device 7 to the power supply paths P11 and N11 during a power failure of the DC power supply device 3, and the power generated by the solar power generation device 4 is supplied to the power supply paths P11 and N11. Supply.
In this way, the solar power generation device 4 supplies power to a load device that needs to be supplied in a state where power cannot be supplied from both the DC power supply device 3 and the power storage device 7. For example, power is supplied to a lighting device or the like. Details of the PCS 5 will be described later.

Note that in the DC power supply system 1 of the present embodiment, as a basic startup method of the PCS 5, after the PCS 5 stops operating once during a power failure of the DC power supply device 3 that cannot supply power from the commercial power system PS, the power storage device Although an example in which the PCS 5 is restarted when the charge of 7 is insufficient or exhausted will be described, other startup methods may be used as the startup method of the PCS 5.
For example, after the PCS 5 is temporarily stopped at the time of a power failure of the DC power supply device 3, the power supply device 6 detects the bus voltage (voltage of the power supply paths P11 and N11), and this bus voltage is within a reference voltage range, for example, a rated voltage. If it is within ± 10%, the PCS 5 may be restarted. Details of this activation method will be described later.
Further, when the operation of the PCS 5 is temporarily stopped at the time of a power failure of the DC power supply device 3, the power supply device 6 does not receive a signal indicating a power failure of the commercial power system PS, and the power feeding paths P11 and N11 serving as power feeding buses The operation of the PCS 5 may be stopped by detecting that the voltage is a predetermined voltage value or less, for example, a value close to zero voltage. Details of this activation method will be described later.

In addition, the switch unit 101 connected to the PCS 5 is in an open (off) state when a failure (for example, a short circuit between lines) occurs in the system of the power supply paths P11 and N11, and the solar power generation device 4 is disconnected from the system. Separate. In addition, the switch unit 101 is assumed to be in an open (off) state even during a power failure of the DC power supply device 3.
In addition, the switch unit 102 connected to the PCS 8 is opened (off) when a failure occurs in the power supply paths P11 and N11, and separates the power storage device 7 from the system. The switch unit 102 is in a closed (on) state in a normal case where no failure has occurred in the power supply paths P11 and N11.
When the PCS 5 of the solar power generation device 4 and the PCS 8 of the power storage device 7 have a protection function that cuts off the output current when a failure occurs in the power supply paths P11 and N11, the switch units 101 and 102 are omitted. It is also possible to do.

  The power supply paths P11 and N11 are connected to the input side of the distribution board (PDF) 11, and the DC power supply 3 is connected to the power supply paths P21 and N21 via the distribution board 11 from the power supply paths P28 and N28. Electric power is supplied from each load device L11 arranged in the system to the load device L16. Each of the load devices L11 to L16 is a device that operates with DC power supplied from the DC power supply device 3. For example, the load devices L11 to L16 are DC appliances, LED lighting, information devices such as personal computers and servers, and the like. In addition, a switch unit 116 to a switch unit 116 for setting a power supply range for supplying power from the load device L11 to the load device L16 are arranged at predetermined positions in the power supply routes P21 and N21 to the power supply routes P28 and N28. Yes. That is, the switch unit 111 to the switch unit 116 are arranged in the power supply path at a location that divides the power supply range for supplying power from the solar power generation device 4 and the non-power supply range for not supplying power.

  The power supply path will be described in more detail. The power supply paths P11 and N11 are connected to the input side of the distribution board (PDF) 11, and an overcurrent breaker (not shown) in the distribution board 11 is used. The branch circuit branches into power supply paths P21 and N21 and power supply paths P24 and N24. The power feeding paths P21 and N21 are connected to the power feeding paths P22 and N22 via the switch unit 111, and the load device L11 is connected to the power feeding paths P22 and N22. Further, the power feeding paths P23 and N23 are branched from the power feeding paths P22 and N22 via the switch unit 112, and the load device L12 is connected to the power feeding paths P23 and N23.

On the other hand, the power feeding paths P24 and N24 branched from the distribution board 11 are branched to the power feeding paths P25 and N25 via the switch unit 113, and the load device L13 is connected to the power feeding paths P25 and N25. The power feeding paths P24 and N24 are branched to the power feeding paths P26 and N26 via the switch unit 114, and the load device L14 is connected to the power feeding paths P26 and N26. The power feeding paths P26 and N26 are branched to the power feeding paths P27 and N27 via the switch unit 115, and the load device L15 is connected to the power feeding paths P27 and N27. The power feeding paths P26 and N26 are branched to the power feeding paths P28 and N28 via the switch unit 116, and the load device L16 is connected to the power feeding paths P28 and N28.
Note that the switch unit 111 to the switch unit 116 are necessary for the entire system from the power storage device 7 when a power failure occurs in the DC power supply device 3 and thereafter the charge stored in the backup power storage device 7 is insufficient or depleted. When it becomes impossible to supply a sufficient power, it is assumed to be in an open (off) state. And after starting PCS5 of the solar power generation device 4, the open / close state of the switch unit 116 is controlled from the switch unit 111, so that the power supply range can be expanded sequentially.

  FIG. 2 is a configuration diagram illustrating the configuration of the switch unit. The switch unit 100 uses a double-throw contact (two contacts) like the switch SW shown in FIG. 2A to connect or open each of the positive-side feed line P and the negative-side feed line N. It is configured. Note that the switch unit 100 connects or connects only the positive-side power supply line P (or the negative-electrode side power supply line N) using a single throw contact (one contact), like the switch SW shown in FIG. You may make it open. Further, as shown in FIG. 2C, the switch unit 100 includes a first direction switch SWa, a second direction switch SWb, and a contact point of the third direction switch SWc, which are connected to each other in any of the three directions. It may be a T-type switch that can output a voltage input from the other direction in the other two directions or one direction.

  1 and 2 show an example of a switch using a mechanical contact as the switch unit 100. In practice, the switch SW is a semiconductor switching element such as an IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor). It is comprised by the used semiconductor switch. This semiconductor switch is configured to connect and shut off the power supply path, supply DC current to the power supply path and load device of the supply destination when connected, and have the ability to cut off the load current flowing to the load device when cut off Has been. The configuration of the switch unit 100 will be described later.

Returning to FIG. 1, the power supply device 6 cannot supply power to both the power supply paths P <b> 11 and N <b> 11 from both the DC power supply device 3 and the power storage device 7 during the power failure of the DC power supply device 3. When the voltage on the output side) disappears, the PCS 5 is supplied with an operating voltage serving as a reference for starting the PCS 5, and the PCS 5 is started independently. That is, the power supply device 6 supplies the operating voltage that enables the PCS 5 to output power to the stopped PCS 5 whose output has been stopped, so that the PCS 5 is activated independently.
The state in which power is not supplied from the DC power supply device 3 to the power supply paths P11 and N11 is when the commercial power system PS fails, when the DC power supply device 3 fails, or when the power supply paths P11 and N11 are in an accident. Occurs when shut off due to the above.
In addition, the state where power is not supplied from the power storage device 7 to the power supply path occurs when the power storage amount (accumulated charge amount) of the power storage device 7 decreases or when the PCS 8 of the power storage device 7 stops supplying power. . Note that when the PCS 8 of the power storage device 7 stops supplying power, the PCS 8 is intentionally set even when the power storage amount of the power storage device 7 is not depleted for the purpose of holding the power storage amount of the power storage device 7 or the like. It may be stopped.

In addition, after the PCS 5 is activated, the power supply device 6 transmits a switch control signal CNT to the switch unit 100 that is once opened, and controls the open / close state of the switch unit 100. Thereby, the power supply device 6 supplies power from the solar power generation device 4 to the power feeding paths P11 and N11, and controls the power feeding ranges in the power feeding paths P28 and N28 from the power feeding paths P21 and N21.
That is, the power supply device 6 adjusts the power supply range from the power supply paths P21 and N21 to the power supply paths P28 and N28 by controlling the open / close state of the switch section 116 from the switch section 111. Thereby, when the power supply device 6 cannot supply power from both the DC power supply device 3 and the power storage device 7, the load device used during a power failure (for example, a lighting device) supplies power from the solar power generation device 4. And a load device (for example, an air conditioner) that does not supply power can be selected.

  In this way, the power supply device 6 supplies the operating voltage to the PCS 5 when the PCS 5 is stopped and the operating voltage that allows the power to be output from the PCS 5 is not supplied to the PCS 5 from the power supply paths P11 and N11. Supply the PCS 5 to start. Furthermore, the power supply device 6 transmits a switch control signal CNT to the switch unit 100, and controls the open / close state of the switch unit 100 by the switch control signal CNT. Thereby, the power supply device 6 sets the power supply range in the power supply paths P28 and N28 from the power supply paths P21 and N21.

(Configuration of PCS 5 of solar power generation device 4 and power supply device 6)
FIG. 3 is a configuration diagram illustrating a configuration example of the PCS 5 and the power supply device 6 of the solar power generation device 4. As shown in FIG. 3, the PCS 5 includes a power generation amount control unit 51, a grid interconnection control unit 52, and a DC / DC converter 53.

In order to extract the maximum power from the solar power generation device 4, the power generation amount control unit 51 has an operating point (maximum) that maximizes the output of the solar cell array 4a in the IV (current-voltage) characteristics of the solar cell array 4a. Power point). In the solar cell array 4a, the maximum power point is shifted depending on the voltage actually required by the connected load. Since the IV characteristic changes depending on the solar radiation intensity, the module temperature, the state, etc., in order to obtain the maximum power, the optimum voltage or current must be automatically followed. Therefore, the power generation amount control unit 51 controls the solar cell array 4a to operate at the maximum power point. In addition, the power generation amount control unit 51 notifies the power supply device 6 that the power that can be output from the solar power generation device 4 is “information on whether or not the power is greater than or equal to a predetermined value”. This “information on whether or not the power that can be output from the solar power generation device 4 is equal to or greater than a predetermined value” is used as a start condition when the power supply device 6 restarts the PCS 5 that has once stopped operating. It is done.
Further, the grid interconnection control unit 52 detects the voltages of the power feeding paths P11 and N11 serving as power feeding buses, and adjusts the output voltage of the DC / DC converter 53, thereby connecting to the power feeding paths P12 and N12. And control so that the power output from the PCS 5 can be fed. The DC / DC converter 53 is a converter for boosting (or stepping down) the output voltage of the solar power generation device 4 and supplying power to the power feeding paths P11 and N11.

The power supply device 6 (power supply control device) includes a PCS activation unit 61, a bus voltage detection unit 61A, a switch control unit 62, a priority order holding unit 63, a control panel 64, and a storage battery 65.
The bus voltage detector 61A detects the DC voltage of the power supply paths P11 and N11 that are power supply buses.
When the bus voltage detection unit 61A detects that the PCS activation unit 61 cannot supply power to the power supply paths P11 and N11 from both the DC power supply device 3 and the power storage device 7, and no operating voltage is supplied to the PCS 5. In addition, an operating voltage is supplied to the PCS 5 of the solar power generation device 4 by the built-in storage battery 65 to activate the PCS 5 independently.
Further, the PCS activation unit 61 controls the activation operation and the stop operation of the PCS 5 and also controls the activation operation and the stop operation of the PCS 8.

The switch control unit 62 controls the switch unit 100 according to control from the control panel 64. The switch control unit 62 transmits the switch control signal CNT to the switch unit 101 and closes the switch unit 101 (on state), thereby connecting the photovoltaic power generation apparatus 4 to the power feeding paths P11 and N11 and connecting them. Let In addition, the switch control unit 62 transmits a switch control signal CNT to the switch unit 102 and closes the switch unit 102 (on state), thereby connecting the power storage device 7 to the power feeding paths P11 and N11 and interconnecting them. Let
Further, the switch control unit 62 transmits a switch control signal CNT from the switch unit 111 to the switch unit 116, and controls the open / close state of the switch unit 116 from the switch unit 111.

  For example, when the power storage device 7 cannot supply power to the load devices L11 to L16 at the time of a power failure of the DC power supply device 3, and the solar power generation device 4 supplies power to the load device, the switch control unit 62 Referring to the priority information about the load devices, based on the priority information, the load devices with higher priority are given priority, and power is supplied in order from the load devices with higher priority. The priority order information is held in the priority order holding unit 63. As will be described later, the load device that supplies power from the solar power generation device 4 can also be selected based on instruction information from the user set on the control panel 64.

  FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an example of the switch control signal CNT. In the example of the switch control signal CNT shown in FIG. 4, the switch control signal CNT includes “switch identification information” and “on / off (open / close) information” of the switch. By transmitting the switch control signal CNT toward the switch unit 100, the switch unit 100 corresponding to the “switch identification information” turns on / off the switch based on the “on / off (open / close) information”. Open / close operation.

Returning to FIG. 3, a dedicated signal line may be provided as a signal path for transmitting the switch control signal CNT to the switch unit 100, and at least one of the power supply paths P11 and N11, P21 and N21 to P28 and N28. You may make it utilize the electric power feeding path | route of a part as a signal wire | line. When a dedicated signal line is provided, power for operating the switch unit 100 can also be supplied from the power supply device 6 via this signal line.
In addition, when using at least a part of the power supply paths P11 and N11, P21 and N21 to P28 and N28 as signal lines, for example, only when the switch unit 111 is in the ON state, The transmission of the switch control signal CNT to the far side from the switch unit 100 in the off state is restricted according to the open / close (on / off) state of the switch unit 116 from the switch unit 111, such as being able to transmit the switch control signal CNT. Further, when the power feeding path is used as a signal line, power for operating the switch unit 100 can be supplied through the power feeding path.

Further, the priority order holding unit 63 gives priority to supplying power for each load device when power is supplied from the solar power generation device 4 to each of the load devices L11 and L16 during a power failure of the DC power supply device 3. Information indicating the order is held as a priority order table.
FIG. 5 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an example of a priority order table. In the priority order table 631 shown in FIG. 5, it is assumed that the power generation possible time of the solar power generation device 4 is “8:00 to 18:00”, and the amount of sunlight in this time zone “8:00 to 18:00”. The load is divided into the time zones “8:00 to 10:00” and “16:00 to 18:00” with a relatively small amount of time and the time zones “10:00 to 16:00” with a relatively large amount of sunlight. Priorities for the devices L11 to L16 are set. That is, the priority order corresponding to the two time zones is set in the priority order table.

  For example, in the time zones “8:00 to 10:00” and “16:00 to 18:00”, the load device L11 (for example, the lighting device) is given the highest priority in the priority order. Rank, load device L13 (for example, a ventilator) is the second highest priority, and load device L12 (for example, air conditioner) is the third highest priority load device. And And in the state which is supplying electric power to the load apparatus L11 of the 1st priority from the solar power generation device 4, the power supply capability of the solar power generation apparatus 4 has the capacity to supply power to the load apparatus L13. In the case, the next second load device L13 is selected to supply power. Further, when the power supply capability of the solar power generation device 4 has sufficient capacity to supply power to the load device L12, the third load device L12 is selected to supply power. The same applies hereinafter.

Also, in the time zone “10:00 to 16:00”, unlike the above priority order table, the priorities of the load device L13 (ventilator) and the load device L12 (air conditioner) are switched. This is because, for example, in the summer, etc., during the time zone “10: 00 to 16:00”, the amount of sunlight may increase and the room temperature may increase, so the priority of the load device L13 (air conditioner) is set higher. Thus, cooling is given priority.
As described above, the priority order information stored in the priority order table 631 can be set differently for each time zone, and can be set differently according to the weather, season, and day of the week (weekdays, holidays). By setting the priority order table 631 in this way, the switch control unit 62 can change the priority order for supplying power to the load device according to the time zone, weather, season, and day of the week (weekdays, holidays). it can.

  And after starting PCS5, when supplying electric power from the solar power generation device 4 to the power supply routes P28 and N28 from the power supply routes P21 and N21, the switch control unit 62 determines the power supply capability and load of the solar power generation device 4. Based on the priority information of the devices L11 to L16, the supply of power is started in order from the load device with the highest priority. That is, the switch control unit 62 receives the notification of the power generation amount of the solar power generation device 4 from the PCS 5 and refers to the priority order table 631 so that power can be supplied in order from the load device L11 having a high necessity. Then, the open / close state of the switch unit 100 is controlled to set the power supply range in the power supply path.

  The selection of the load device that supplies power by setting the power supply range is based on the fact that the switch control unit 62 sets based on the information on the power generation amount of the solar power generation device 4 and the information on the priority table 631. However, in addition to this, it is also possible for the user to set a power supply range by the control panel 64 and select a load device that supplies power. A method for setting the power supply range by the control panel 64 will be described later.

  In addition, the storage battery 65 in the power supply device 6 is always charged from, for example, power supply paths P11 and N11 in a normal state in which power is supplied from the DC power supply device 3. Then, when the DC power supply 3 is out of power, the power storage device 7 cannot output power, and when the PCS 5 is activated, the storage battery 65 supplies an operating voltage that causes the PCS 5 to output power to the power supply device 6. Then, the operation of the power supply device 6 is started, and the operation voltage is supplied from the power supply device 6 to the PCS 5 to activate the PCS 5 independently. Instead of the storage battery 65, the PCS 5 may be activated independently using a fuel cell or an engine generator.

(PCS5 startup process procedure)
Next, the procedure of the startup process of the PCS 5 at the time of a power failure of the DC power supply system 1 will be described.
FIG. 6 is a flowchart illustrating the procedure of the startup process of the PCS 5 at the time of a power failure of the DC power supply system 1. In the flowchart shown in FIG. 6, when a power failure state occurs in which power cannot be supplied from the commercial power system PS to the DC power supply device 3, the PCS 5 temporarily stops operating, and the charge of the power storage device 7 is insufficient or depleted. This is an example in which the PCS 5 is restarted.

Hereinafter, with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. 6, the procedure of the startup process of the PCS 5 in the DC power supply system 1 will be described.
First, it is assumed that a power outage state in which power cannot be supplied from the commercial power system PS to the DC power supply device 3 occurs.
When a power failure occurs in the commercial power system PS, the circuit breaker 2A in the power receiving facility 2 is opened by the operation of an undervoltage relay (not shown) in the protective relay 2D, and the auxiliary contact 2B of the circuit breaker 2A is opened. The power supply device 6 detects from the contact signal Aux that the auxiliary contact 2B of the circuit breaker 2A has been opened, and detects that a power failure has occurred in the commercial power system PS (step S100).

  Subsequently, the power supply device 6 controls the PCS 8 of the power storage device 7 to start discharging from the power storage device 7 toward the power feeding paths P11 and N11 (step S105), and temporarily stops the operation of the PCS 5 (step S105). Step S110). Further, the power supply device 6 opens the switch unit 101 (step S115). Thus, when the power supply device 6 detects that a power failure has occurred in the commercial power system PS, the power supply device 6 temporarily stops the operation of the PCS 5 and supplies power from the power storage device 7 to the power supply paths P11 and N11. Can do.

  Subsequently, the power supply device 6 determines whether or not the voltage of the power supply paths P11 and N11 that are power supply buses is reduced to a predetermined voltage value or less (for example, a value close to zero voltage) by the bus voltage detection unit 61A. It detects (step S120). That is, after the power storage device 7 starts discharging, has the DC voltage supplied from the power storage device 7 to the power supply paths P11 and N11 decreased to a predetermined voltage value or less due to insufficient or depleted charge of the power storage device 7? The power supply device 6 detects whether or not.

  And when it determines with the voltage of the electric power feeding path | routes P11 and N11 having fallen below the predetermined voltage value in the process of step S120 (step S120: Yes), the power supply device 6 will perform the process step of step S130. It shifts and it is determined whether the electric power which can be output from the solar power generation device 4 is electric power more than predetermined value (step S130). That is, it is determined whether or not the solar power generation device 4 is in a state where it can obtain a sunshine amount equal to or greater than a predetermined value and can supply power equal to or greater than the predetermined value from the PCS 5 to the power feeding path. This predetermined value can be set to an arbitrary value, for example, with the amount of power that can supply power to at least one load device as a lower limit value.

  Subsequently, in the process of step S130, when it is determined that the photovoltaic power generation apparatus 4 is in a state in which power can be output to the power feeding path (step S130: Yes), the power supply apparatus 6 proceeds to the process step of step S140. Then, the PCS activation unit 61 supplies the PCS 5 with an operating voltage that enables power to be output from the PCS 5 to activate the PCS 5 (step S140).

  Subsequently, the power supply device 6 causes the switch control unit 62 to turn on the switch unit 101 to output DC power from the PCS 5 to the power feeding paths P11 and N11 (step S150). Then, after executing the process of step S150, the power supply device 6 finishes the activation process of the PCS 5.

On the other hand, in the process of step S120, when it is determined that the voltages of the power supply paths P11 and N11 have not decreased below the predetermined voltage value (step S120: No), the power supply device 6 returns to the process of step S110. Then, the operation stop state of the PCS 5 and the open state of the switch unit 101 are continued.
Moreover, when it determines with the solar power generation device 4 not being in the state which can output electric power to an electric power feeding path in the process of step S130 (step S130: No), the power supply device 6 returns to the process of step S110, and PCS5 The operation stop state and the open state of the switch unit 101 are continued.

  As a result, in the DC power supply system 1, when a power failure state occurs in which power cannot be supplied from the commercial power system PS to the DC power supply device 3, the operation of the PCS 5 is temporarily stopped and the power storage device 7 is connected to the power supply paths P11 and N11. Electric power can be supplied. Thereafter, when the charge accumulated in the power storage device 7 is insufficient or depleted, the power supply device 6 can activate the PCS 5 to supply power from the solar power generation device 4 to the power feeding path.

In addition, after starting PCS5 by step S140, when the switch part 101 is turned on in step S150, if there is a possibility that excessively large current flows from the PCS5 toward the power supply paths P11 and N11, The switch unit 101 may be turned on, and then the output voltage of the PCS 5 may be raised. For example, after the switch unit 101 is turned on, the output voltage of the PCS 5 may be gradually raised to prevent a transient excessive current from flowing.
Furthermore, when the DC power supply 3 is out of power, the switch unit 101 is closed without being opened, thereby performing the opening process of the switch unit 101 in step S115 and the turning-on process of the switch unit 101 in step S150. Can be omitted (the same applies to FIGS. 7 and 8 to be described later).

(First Modification of Procedure of PCS 5 Startup Process)
FIG. 7 is a flowchart illustrating a first modification of the procedure of the PCS 5 activation process. The PCS 5 activation processing procedure shown in FIG. 7 differs from the PCS 5 activation processing procedure shown in FIG. 6 only in that the processing in step S120 shown in FIG. 6 is replaced with the processing in step S120A shown in FIG. The other processing steps are the same as the processing procedure shown in FIG. For this reason, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the step of the same processing content, and the overlapping description is abbreviate | omitted.

In the procedure of the start-up process shown in FIG. 7, when the protective relay 2D detects that a power failure state has occurred in the DC power supply system 1 in which power cannot be supplied from the commercial power system PS to the DC power supply device 3 (step S100), the power storage device 7 starts discharging, and DC power is supplied from the power storage device 7 to the power feeding paths P11 and N11 (step S105). At the same time, the power supply device 6 temporarily stops the operation of the PCS 5 (step S110). Further, the power supply device 6 opens the switch unit 101 (step S115).
Subsequently, the power supply device 6 determines whether the DC voltage of the power supply paths P11 and N11 is within a predetermined reference voltage range (for example, within ± 10% of the rated voltage) by the bus voltage detector 61A. (Step S120A).

When it is determined in step S120A that the DC voltages of the power supply paths P11 and N11 are within the predetermined reference voltage range (step S120A: Yes), the power supply device 6 proceeds to step S130. To do. And in the process of step S130, when it determines with it being in the state which can supply the electric power more than a predetermined value to the electric power feeding path from the solar power generation device 4 (step S130: Yes), the power supply device 6 will perform step S140. Shifting to processing, the PCS 5 is activated.
On the other hand, in the process of step S120A, when it is determined that the DC voltage of the power feeding paths P11 and N11 is not within the predetermined reference voltage range (step S120A: No), the power supply device 6 returns to the process of step S110, The operation stop state of the PCS 5 is continued.

That is, in the procedure of the startup process illustrated in FIG. 7, the PCS 5 is started in a state where a DC voltage is output from the power storage device 7 to the power feeding paths P11 and N11. When the PCS 5 detects and connects the DC voltage output from the power storage device 7 to the power supply paths P11 and N11, the PCS 5 converts the DC voltage output to the power supply paths P11 and N11 to the PCS8 of the power storage device 7. By making the voltage higher than the direct-current voltage output by a predetermined amount (for example, a voltage 1% to several% higher), the PCS 5 can be naturally linked to the power feeding paths P11 and N11.
Thereby, at the time of a power failure of DC power supply device 3, electric power can be supplied from power storage device 7 and solar power generation device 4 to power supply paths P11 and N11 in parallel.

(Second modified example of procedure of activation process of PCS 5)
6 and 7, the power supply device 6 has detected a signal (for example, a contact signal Aux) indicating a power failure state in which power cannot be supplied from the commercial power system PS to the DC power supply device 3. In this case, the example in which the operation of the PCS 5 is stopped has been described. However, the power supply device 6 detects that the voltages of the power supply paths P11 and N11 serving as power supply buses have decreased to a predetermined voltage value or less, for example, The operation of the PCS 5 may be stopped by detecting that the DC voltage of the paths P11 and N11 has a value close to zero voltage.

FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing a second modification of the procedure of the PCS 5 activation process.
Compared with the procedure of the PCS 5 activation process shown in FIG. 7, the procedure of the PCS 5 activation process shown in FIG. 8 omits the process of the step S105 from the procedure shown in FIG. 7, and the process of the steps S105A and S115A. The other processing is the same as the processing procedure shown in FIG. For this reason, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the step of the same processing content, and the overlapping description is abbreviate | omitted.

In the procedure of the start-up process shown in FIG. 8, when the protective relay 2D detects that a power failure state has occurred in the DC power supply system 1 in which power cannot be supplied from the commercial power system PS to the DC power supply device 3 (step S100), the circuit breaker 2A is opened, but at this time, DC power is not supplied from the power storage device 7 to the power feeding paths P11 and N11.
Subsequently, in the power supply device 6, the DC voltage of the power supply paths P <b> 11 and N <b> 11 that become power supply buses due to a power failure of the DC power supply device 3 is not more than a predetermined voltage value (for example, a value close to zero voltage) by the bus voltage detection unit 61 </ b> A. It is determined whether or not it has decreased (step S105A). When it is determined that the DC voltage of the power supply paths P11 and N11 has decreased to a predetermined voltage value or less (step S105A: Yes), the power supply device 6 temporarily stops the operation of the PCS 5 (step S110). ), The switch unit 101 is opened (step S115).
Subsequently, the power supply device 6 controls the PCS 8 to start supplying power from the power storage device 7 to the power feeding paths P11 and N11 (step S115A).

The subsequent processing procedure is the same as the processing procedure from step S120A to step S150 shown in FIG.
Thereby, at the time of a power failure of the DC power supply device 3, the power supply device 6 can detect the DC voltage of the power supply paths P <b> 11 and N <b> 11 serving as power supply buses and can stop the operation of the PCS 5. Note that the PCS 5 itself may detect that the voltages of the power feeding paths P11 and N11 have decreased, and the PCS 5 may stop the operation by itself.

(Description of the control panel 64)
Next, the control panel 64 will be described. The control panel 64 (setting input unit) detects an operation for setting the open / close state (on / off state) of the switch unit 100 and controls the switch control unit 62 according to the detected operation. Open / close status is displayed. The control panel 64 can be configured to include, for example, a touch panel display device.

  FIG. 9 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of the control panel 64. In the example shown in FIG. 9, a “single-line connection diagram display screen 641 of the DC power supply system 1”, a “switch selection button 642” indicating a position for detecting an operation, and a “push-in button 643” are displayed on a touch-panel display screen. ”And“ open button 644 ”are shown.

  In addition, in the “display screen 641 of the single-line connection diagram of the DC power supply system 1” shown in FIG. 9, all the load devices L11 to L16 in the DC power supply system 1 are displayed. You may make it select and display only the load apparatus which needs to supply electric power from the solar power generation device 4 at the time of the power failure of the power supply device 3. FIG.

  For example, on the display screen 641 of this single-line diagram, the state of the switch unit 100 is indicated by the color of the area surrounding the switch unit with a broken line. For example, “green” is displayed when the switch unit 100 is in the open state, and “red” is displayed when the switch unit 100 is in the closed state.

  For example, when the switch unit 111 in the open state indicated by “SW111” is turned on, the user operates the switch selection button 642, and then the broken line of the switch unit 111 on the display screen 641 of the single-line connection diagram. Manipulate the enclosed area. By operating the area indicating the switch unit 111, the control panel 64 starts blinking display of the area indicating the switch unit 111. By operating the input button 643 while the area indicating the switch unit 111 is blinking, the control panel 64 switches on the switch unit 111 via the switch control unit 62 according to the above-described series of operations. To close. Further, the control panel 64 changes the display color of the switch unit 111 from “green” to “red”.

  Further, when the switch unit 111 in the closed state is opened, the switch selection button 642 is operated, and thereafter, the region surrounded by the broken line of the switch unit 111 is operated on the display screen 641 of the single-line connection diagram. By operating the area indicating the switch unit 111, the control panel 64 starts blinking display of the switch unit 111. By operating the release button 644 while the area indicating the switch unit 111 is blinking, the control panel 64 opens the switch unit 111 via the switch control unit 62 according to the series of operations described above. Let Further, the control panel 64 changes the display color of the switch unit 111 from “red” to “green”. The same applies to other switch units 100.

  When the switch unit 100 is specified by operating the switch selection button 642, a plurality of switch units 100 can be specified at the same time, such as simultaneously specifying the switch unit 111 and the switch unit 112.

(Configuration of control circuit of switch part)
FIG. 10 is a configuration diagram illustrating a configuration example of a control circuit of the switch unit. As shown in FIG. 10, the switch unit 100 includes a switch control signal receiving unit 71, a switch opening / closing unit 72, an opening / closing result notification unit 73, a switch 74, and a power supply unit 75.

The switch control signal receiving unit 71 receives the switch control signal CNT from the switch control unit 62 in the power supply device 6.
Based on the switch control signal CNT received by the switch control signal receiving unit 71, the switch opening / closing unit 72 determines whether or not the switch opening / closing unit 72 is a switch designated by “switch identification information”. When the switch opening / closing unit 72 determines that the switch is the switch designated by the “switch identification information”, the switch opening / closing unit 72 turns on / off the switch 74 based on the “switch on / off information”. ) That is, the switch opening / closing unit 72 performs an opening / closing operation of the switch 74.

  When the switch 74 is turned on / off, the opening / closing result notifying unit 73 transmits information on the operation result of turning on / off the switch 74 to the switch control unit 62 of the power supply device 6. The switch control unit 62 that has received the operation result information displays the open / close state of the switch 74 on the control panel 64 based on the on / off operation result information of the switch 74 received from the open / close result notification unit 73. Let

The power supply unit 75 supplies power to each of the switch control signal receiving unit 71, the switch opening / closing unit 72, and the opening / closing result notification unit 73. The power supply unit 75 may store electric power that causes the switch control signal receiving unit 71, the switch opening / closing unit 72, and the opening / closing result notification unit 73 to function.
As a result, the user can instruct opening / closing of the switch 74 on the power supply path by the control panel 64 and can display and confirm the opening / closing result on the control panel 64.

(Power supply processing based on priority)
Next, the power supply process based on the priority order of the load devices in the DC power supply system will be described with reference to FIG.
FIG. 11 is a flowchart illustrating a procedure of power supply processing based on the priority order of load devices in the DC power supply system. FIG. 11 shows a process from a state in which the DC power supply device 3 is in a power failure state and power cannot be supplied from the power storage device 7.

  First, the PCS activation unit 61 supplies an operating voltage to the PCS 5 to activate the PCS 5 (step S210). Subsequently, the control panel 64 controls the switch control unit 62 to turn on the switch unit 101 (step S220).

Subsequently, the switch control unit 62 inputs priority order information for the load devices L11 to L16 from the priority order holding unit 63 (step S230).
Subsequently, the switch control unit 62 supplies power from the solar power generation device 4 based on the current power supply capability of the solar power generation device 4 and the priority order information for the load devices L11 to L16. The load device and its power supply path are determined (step S240).
Subsequently, the switch control unit 62 supplies the switch unit 100 with power that is determined to be supplied from the photovoltaic power generation device 4 in order from the load device having the first priority. The switch control signal CNT is transmitted, and the switch 74 in the switch unit 100 is turned on (step S250).
For example, when supplying power to the load device L11, the switch control unit 62 transmits a switch control signal CNT to the switch unit 111 so as to turn on the switch unit 111, and turns on the switch 74 in the switch unit 111. Further, for example, when supplying power to the load devices L11 and L12, the switch control unit 62 performs switch control on the switch unit 111 and the switch unit 112 so that the switch unit 111 and the switch unit 112 are sequentially turned on. The signal CNT is sequentially transmitted, and the switch unit 111 and the switch 74 in the switch unit 112 are sequentially turned on.

Subsequently, the switch unit 100 that has determined that the switch control signal CNT targets itself switches on its own switch 74 and notifies the switch control unit 62 of the result (step S260).
Subsequently, in response to the notification received from the switch unit 100, the switch control unit 62 causes the control panel 64 to display the open / closed state of the switch unit 100 included in the notification. The control panel 64 displays the open / closed state of the switch unit 100 on the display screen 641 of the control panel 64 (step S270). And after performing the process of this step S270, the power supply device 6 finishes this power supply process.
With the above power supply processing, the load device that supplies power from the solar power generation device 4 can supply power by setting the power supply range to which the load device is connected in order from the load device with the highest priority. it can.

(Power supply processing by the control panel 64)
FIG. 12 is a flowchart showing a procedure of power supply processing by the control panel 64 in the DC power supply system. In FIG. 12, the process from a state in which the DC power supply device 3 is in a power failure state, power cannot be supplied from the power storage device 7, and power is supplied from the solar power generation device 4 to the load device having a higher priority. Indicates.

First, the control panel 64 detects a user instruction, and detects that there is a load device that requires power supply in accordance with the detected instruction (step S310).
Subsequently, the control panel 64 controls the switch control unit 62 to turn on or open the switch unit 100 (more precisely, the switch 74 in the switch unit 100) corresponding to the detected operation (step S320).

Subsequently, the switch unit 100 that has determined that the switch control signal CNT is intended for itself switches the switch 74 on or off, and notifies the switch control unit 62 of the result (step S330).
Subsequently, in response to the notification received from the switch unit 100, the switch control unit 62 causes the control panel 64 to display the state of the switch unit 100 included in the notification. The control panel 64 displays the state of the switch unit 100 on the display screen 641 of the control panel 64 (step S340). After executing the process of step S340, the power supply device 6 ends this power supply process.

  As described above, the user instructs the switch unit 116 to open / close the power supply paths P11 and N11 to the power supply paths P28 and N28 on the control panel 64. It is possible to set the range of the power supply path to be supplied.

(Example of setting the priority of load devices for each area)
In the example of the DC power supply system 1 described above, the priority for each time zone for the load devices L11 to L16 is stored in the priority table 631 in advance, and the priority for each time zone stored in this priority table 631 is stored. Based on the information, a load device that supplies power from the solar power generation device 4 is determined. Other methods can be used for determining the priority order of the load devices.

For example, a priority table can be prepared for each area or room in a building such as a building. That is, a priority order may be determined in advance for each load device installed in each area or room, and power may be supplied from the solar power generation device 4 to the load device according to this priority order.
FIG. 13 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an example in which the priority order of load devices is set for each area. In the DC power supply system 1A shown in FIG. 13, the power supply path to which power is supplied from the DC power supply device 3 is shown by a single-line tangent diagram, and the main power supply path is connected to each load device in the two areas A1 and A2. In this example, power is supplied from P11 and N11.

  In FIG. 13, the first area A1 includes load devices L11 to L16 and switch units 111 to 116, and power is supplied from the power feeding paths P11 and N11 via the distribution board (PDF) 11. The second area A2 includes load devices L21 to L23 and switch units 121 to 123, and power is supplied from the power feeding paths P11 and N11 via the distribution board (PDF) 12. In addition, the structure of 1st area A1 is the same as the structure which consists of load apparatus L11 to L16 shown in FIG. 1, and switch part 111 to 116, and the overlapping description is abbreviate | omitted.

  In the second area A2, the power feeding paths P31 and N31 are branched from the power feeding paths P11 and N11 by the distribution board (PDF) 12. The power supply paths P11 and N11 are connected to the load device L21 through the switch unit 121, to the load device L22 through the switch unit 122, and to the load device L23 through the switch unit 123. The

In the DC power supply system 1A having the above configuration, for example, a priority order table 632 shown in FIG. 14 is used. In the priority order table 632, priorities are set for the load devices in the first area A1 and the second area A2.
In the example shown in FIG. 14, in the first area A1, the load device L11 (illumination device) has the first priority, the load device L13 (ventilation device) has the second priority, and the load device L12 ( Air conditioner) is set to the third highest priority.
In the second area A2, the load device L21 (illumination device) has the first priority, the load device L23 (ventilation device) has the second priority, and the load device L22 (air conditioner) has the third priority. Priority is set.
When power is supplied from the solar power generation device 4 to the load device during a power failure of the DC power supply device 3, the switch control unit 62 first loads the load device L11 having the first priority in the first area A1. The power supply range is set so that power is supplied in the order of the (lighting device) and the load device L21 (lighting device) having the first priority in the second area A2.

And after starting supply of the electric power to the load apparatuses L11 and L21 of the 1st priority, when the power supply capability of the photovoltaic power generation apparatus 4 has the remaining capacity to supply electric power to the load apparatus L13 and the load apparatus L23 Next, power is supplied in the order of the load device L13 (ventilator) with the second priority in the first area A1 and the load device L23 (ventilator) with the second priority in the second area A2. Further, when the power supply capability of the solar power generation device 4 has enough power to supply power to the load device with the next priority, power is supplied to the load device with a lower priority.
Thus, the priority order for each of the load devices installed in each area in the building such as a building can be determined in advance, and power can be supplied to the load device according to this priority order.

(Example of setting the load device priority order based on human traffic)
In addition, the priority order of the load devices is determined based on the flow line (movement route) when the person moves in the event of a power failure of the DC power supply device 3 based on the flow line of the person. You can also. In this case, the power supply range set based on the flow line of the person may be displayed on the control panel 64.
FIG. 15 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an example of a flow line of a person at the time of a power failure of the solar power generation device. In FIG. 15, the configuration of the DC power supply system 1A is the same as that of the DC power supply system 1A shown in FIG. 13, and redundant description of the configuration of the DC power supply system 1A is omitted.

  As shown in FIG. 15, in the DC power supply system 1 </ b> A, a human flow line DL at the time of a power failure of the DC power supply device 3 is set in advance. And a high priority is given to the load apparatus of the range along this flow line DL. In the example shown in FIG. 15, the load devices installed near the flow line DL, that is, the load device L21 in the second area A2, the load device L11 in the first area A1, and the load device L13 in the first area A1. And give high priority to.

FIG. 16 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an example of a priority order table that is set in consideration of human traffic lines. In the priority order table 633 shown in FIG. 16, a high priority order is set for the load devices in the range along the flow line DL shown in FIG.
That is, the load device L21 (illumination device) in the second area A2 is set as the load device having the first priority in the traveling direction of the human flow line DL, and the load device L11 (illumination device) in the first area A1. Is the load device with the second highest priority, and the load device L13 (ventilator) in the first area A1 is the load device with the third highest priority.

When power is supplied to the load devices L21, L11, and L13 set in accordance with the human flow line DL, the control panel 64 displays that power is supplied to the load devices L21, L11, and L13. . For example, the power supply system diagram of the DC power supply system 1A shown in FIG. 15 is displayed on the control panel 64, and the regions of the load devices L21, L11, and L13 (regions surrounded by solid lines) are displayed in red. The flow line DL is also displayed.
Thereby, in the event of a power failure of the DC power supply device 3, power can be supplied from the solar power generation device 4 with priority given to load devices such as lighting so that a person can move safely and without inconvenience. it can. Further, by displaying the flow line DL and the power supply status to the load device on the control panel 64, the user can confirm the range in which power is supplied.

(Example of guiding the person by indicating the power supply range)
As described above with reference to FIG. 15, the power supply system diagram is displayed on the control panel 64, and the flow line DL serving as the movement route of the person is displayed on the display screen, and the electric power is supplied according to the flow line DL. The load device to be supplied can be displayed. However, this display method is difficult for the user to intuitively grasp a specific movement route.
Accordingly, a display example will be described in which the user can easily grasp the power supply range and the moving route, and can effectively guide the user to the moving route.

FIG. 17 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an example of a display screen that guides the user by indicating the power supply range and the moving route. The display screen 200 shown in FIG. 17 shows an example of a three-story building. In this building, areas A11, A12, and A13 such as office rooms are arranged on the first floor (1F), and the second floor (second floor). ), Areas A21, A22 and A23 are arranged, and areas A31 and A32 are arranged on the 3rd floor (3rd floor). In addition, in order to simplify the explanation, it is assumed that each area is provided with only the illumination device LT and the air conditioner CON as load devices. The solar power generation device 4 is connected to a power supply path 201A that supplies power to the lighting device LT and a power supply path 201B that supplies power to the air conditioner CON. It is assumed that power is supplied to one or both of the power supply path 201A and the power supply path 201B according to the amount and the priority order of the load devices.
In addition, since arrangement | positioning and operation | movement states, such as a distribution board and a switch part, are information unnecessary when a user moves, a display is abbreviate | omitted.

The power supply path 201A is branched at 3F to become a power supply path 230A, branched at 2F to be a power supply path 220A, and branched at the first floor to be a power supply path 210A. Similarly, the power supply path 201B is branched at 3F, becomes a power supply path 230B, is branched at 2F, becomes a power supply path 220B, and is branched at the first floor to become a power supply path 210B.
In 1F, the power feeding path 210A is branched into a power feeding path 211A, a power feeding path 212A, and a power feeding path 213A, and the power feeding path 211A is connected to the lighting device LT in the area A11. The power supply path 213A is connected to the lighting device LT in the area A13. In 1F, the power supply path 210B is branched into a power supply path 211B, a power supply path 212B, and a power supply path 213B, and the power supply path 211B is connected to the air conditioner CON in the area A11. The power supply path 213B is connected to the air conditioner CON in the area A13. The same applies to 2F and 3F.

Now, the DC power supply device 3 is interrupted, and the switch control unit 62 controls the open / closed state of the switch unit 100, so that only power is supplied from the solar power generation device 4 to the lighting device LT of "1F area A12". Shall be supplied.
In such a state, the control panel 64 displays the area surrounded by the area A12 on the display screen 200 in, for example, “green”, and displays the illumination device LT to which power is supplied, for example, “orange”. Is displayed. In addition, the power supply path route connecting the power supply path 212A to the power supply path 201A in the area A12 and the power supply path 201A are displayed in, for example, “blue”. That is, the hatched portion of the power supply path shown in the figure is displayed as the power supply range. In the power supply path, a portion where power is not supplied is displayed in, for example, “gray”.
Thereby, the user who has seen the display screen 200 can grasp at a glance the area to which power is supplied from the solar power generation device 4 and the load device to which power is supplied.

  Further, on the display screen 200, guidance display portions 261 to 272 corresponding to each area and each stairs are displayed. The guidance display units 261 to 272 are controlled by the control panel 64 so that the direction of the arrow is one of up, down, left and right directions on the drawing. In the example illustrated in FIG. 17, all of the guidance display units 261 to 272 are displayed to indicate the direction of the moving route toward “1F area A12” to which power is supplied.

For example, in the moving route from “3F area A32” to “1F area A12”, the guidance display units 261 and 262 are directed from “3F passage 243” to “stairs 251 between 3F and 2F”. In this staircase 251, the guidance display parts 263 and 264 are displayed in the direction of going down the stairs, and in the staircase 252 between 2F and 1F, the guidance display parts 265 and 266 are displayed in the direction of going down the stairs. Is done. Then, the guidance display unit 267 of the 1F passage 241 is displayed in a direction toward the “1F area A12”, and the guidance display unit 268 is displayed in a direction indicating the “1F area A12”. The guidance display portions 270 to 272 of the 2F passage 242 are also displayed so as to indicate the direction of the moving route from the position of the guidance display portion toward “1F area A12”.
Thereby, the user can easily know the travel route from the current location to the area where power is supplied by looking at the guidance display units 261 to 272. Thus, by displaying the guidance display units 261 to 272 on the display screen 200, the user can be accurately guided to the area where power is supplied.

[Second Embodiment]
In the first embodiment described above, an example is shown in which the priority order of load devices is set in the priority order table in advance, and the switch control unit 62 refers to the priority order table and selects a load device that supplies power. However, the priority order of the load devices can be dynamically set according to the movement route of the person in the building.
For example, when the user designates a starting point and a destination on the control panel 64, the power supply device 6 estimates a recommended person's travel route, and the load device in the range along the travel route is high. Give priority.

  That is, when determining the priority order of the load devices, the power supply device 6 allows the user to specify the starting point and the destination on the control panel 64, and when the user specifies the destination, A recommended moving route from the destination to the destination is displayed on the control panel 64. When the power supply device 6 supplies power from the solar power generation device 4 to the load device, the power supply device 6 preferentially supplies power to the load device installed in the range of the moving route and the range of the destination.

  For example, FIG. 18 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an example of a setting screen for a departure place and a destination. In the example illustrated in FIG. 18, a departure point setting unit 652, a destination setting unit 653, a route setting button 654, and a confirmation button 655 are arranged on the display screen 651.

  The departure place setting unit 652 is an operation unit for setting a departure place, and buttons for designating each departure place are arranged in the vertical direction. The destination setting unit 653 is an operation unit for setting a destination, and buttons for designating each destination are arranged in the vertical direction. The route setting button 654 is a button for starting processing for setting a departure place and a destination. The confirmation button 655 is a button for confirming the starting point and the destination selected by the user.

  On the display screen 651, the user first operates the route setting button 654 first. By operating the route setting button 654, it is possible to set the departure point in the departure point setting unit 652 and to set the destination in the destination setting unit 653. In other words, the control panel 64 detects the operation of the route setting button 654, thereby performing the process of setting the departure point in the departure point setting unit 652 and the process of setting the destination in the destination setting unit 653.

For example, when the user operates the button “2F (second floor) area A21” in the departure place setting unit 652, the control panel 64 displays the enclosed portion of the “2F area A21” in green. Subsequently, when the user operates the “1F (first floor) lobby” button in the “destination setting unit 653”, the control panel 64 displays the enclosed portion of the “1F lobby” in green.
Then, by detecting the operation of the confirm button 655 by the user, the control panel 64 confirms “departure place” and “destination”. When the starting point and the destination are determined by the above-described series of operations, a process for estimating a recommended moving route from the information of the starting point and the destination is performed, and the control panel 64 displays the starting point and the destination. Display a screen of recommended travel routes accordingly. For example, the control panel 64 displays the display screen 661 shown in FIG. 19 in a pop-up display.

FIG. 19 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of a moving route display screen, in which “2F area A22” is set as the departure point and “1F lobby” is set as the destination.
As shown in FIG. 19, a layout screen 662 of “2F area A22” as a departure place and a layout screen 663 of “1F lobby” as a destination are displayed on the display screen 661. Above, a recommended travel route R1 indicated by a broken line is displayed.
This travel route R1 indicates a recommended travel route when moving from “2F area A22” as a departure place to “1F lobby” as a “destination” at the time of a power failure of the DC power supply device 3. . More specifically, the moving route R1 starts from the entrance / exit 671 of “2F area A22”, moves along the dotted line shown in the drawing along the passage 673 in front of the elevator (EV) 672 of 2F, and reaches the staircase 674. , Then down stairs 674, down this stairs 674, through the 1F passage 675, and the route to “1F lobby 676” is shown.

The “return button 664” arranged below the display screen 661 is an operation button for returning from the screen shown in FIG. 19 to the “departure and destination setting screen” 651 shown in FIG. By operating the “return button 664”, the user can return to the “departure point / destination setting screen” 651 and set a new departure point and destination. Further, the “confirm button 665” confirms the movement route R1 by operating the “confirmation button 665” when the user accepts the movement route R1 displayed in FIG. That is, the control panel 64 performs a process of confirming the estimated movement route R1 by detecting the operation of the “confirm button 665”.
The example illustrated in FIG. 19 is an example, and for example, a plurality of travel routes may be displayed so that the user can select a desired travel route from among the plurality of travel routes.

Then, when the travel route R1 is set as shown in FIG. 19, the priority table 634 shown in FIG. 20 is generated and held in the priority holding unit 63.
FIG. 20 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of a priority order table set in consideration of the flow of people.
In the example shown in FIG. 20, along the movement route R1, the lighting device in the 2F (floor) passage 673 is the first priority load device, and the staircase 674 lighting device is the second load device. In this example, the lighting device in the 1F passage 675 is the third load device, the lighting device in the 1F lobby 676 is the fourth load device, and the ventilation device in the 1F lobby 676 is the fifth load device.

  When the switch control unit 62 supplies power from the solar power generation device 4 to the power feeding path, the switch control unit 62 refers to the priority order table 634 shown in FIG. As described above, the open / close state of the switch unit 100 is controlled to set the power supply range in the power supply path.

It is assumed that power is supplied to one or both of the power supply paths 201A and 201B according to the amount and the priority order of the load devices. It should be noted that the display of the distribution and operation state of the distribution board, the switch unit, and the like is omitted because it is unnecessary information when the user moves.
The power supply path 201A is branched at 2F to become a power supply path 220A, and is branched at the first floor to become a power supply path 210A. Similarly, the power supply path 201B is branched at 2F to become a power supply path 220B, and is branched at the first floor to become a power supply path 210B.

In 2F, the power supply path 220A is branched into a power supply path 221A and a power supply path 222A. The power supply path 221A is connected to the illumination device LT in the area A21, and the power supply route 222A is connected to the illumination device LT in the area A22. It is connected to the. In 2F, the power supply path 220B is branched into a power supply path 221B and a power supply path 222B, respectively.

Now, assume that “2F area A22” is designated as the departure place and “1F lobby” is designated as the destination on the “departure point and destination setting screen” shown in FIG. Further, it is assumed that electric power is supplied only from the solar power generation device 4 to the lighting devices of the passages and stairs of each floor and the lighting device of “1F lobby”.
As a result, a travel route R1 from “2F area A22” to “1F lobby” is set, and lighting devices (LT) 701 and 702 installed in the 2F passage 673 and staircase 674 are set along this travel route R1. Electric power is supplied to the installed lighting device (LT) 703, the lighting devices (LT) 704 and 705 installed in the 1F passage 675, and the lighting device (LT) 706 installed in the 1F lobby.

In such a power supply situation, the control panel 64 displays lighting devices (LT) 701 to 706 to which power is supplied, for example, in “orange”. In addition, the power supply path 201A of the solar power generation device 4 is displayed, for example, in “blue”, and the power supply path connecting the power supply path 201A and the lighting devices (LT) 701 to 706 is displayed in “blue”. . In FIG. 21, a power feeding path to which power is supplied is indicated by a hatched portion, and the hatched portion is displayed in “blue” indicating that it is a power feeding range.

In this step 674, the guidance display portions 293 and 294 Is displayed in the direction of going down the stairs. In the 1F passage 675, the guidance display portions 295 and 296 are displayed in the direction from the “1F passage” to the “1F lobby”.
In this way, by displaying the guidance display units 291 to 296 on the display screen 200A, the user can be guided from the current position to the area where power is supplied. In the example shown in FIG. 21, for the sake of simplicity of explanation, an example of a two-story building is shown. However, a single-story or three-story or more building may be used.

FIG. 22 is a configuration diagram showing a configuration of a DC power supply system 1B according to the second embodiment of the present invention. 22 is different from the DC power supply system 1 shown in FIG. 1 only in the configuration of the power supply device 6A.
The power supply device 6A shown in FIG. 22 is different from the power supply device 6 shown in FIG. 3 in that a recommended route setting unit 66 is newly added, and the other configuration is the same as the power supply device shown in FIG. The same as 6. For this reason, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the same component and the overlapping description is abbreviate | omitted.

The recommended route setting unit 66 includes a building database (building DB) 66A in which information about a building in which the DC power supply system 1 is installed is recorded. The building database 66A holds information such as layout information of the building, power supply facility information, load device information, and power supply path system information. The layout information of the building may be, for example, CAD information of the building.
Then, when the departure place and the destination are set on the “departure point and destination setting screen” shown in FIG. 18, the recommended route setting unit 66 refers to the building database 66A and determines from the departure place to the destination. The recommended travel route R1 to the position of is estimated. The recommended route setting unit 66 displays the recommended travel route R1 on the control panel 64.

Further, the recommended route setting unit 66 determines the load devices existing within a predetermined distance range from the travel route R1 along the recommended travel route R1 with reference to the building database 66A, and the information on the load devices is prioritized. It is stored in the holding unit 63. Based on the information on the load device notified by the recommended route setting unit 66, the priority order holding unit 63 sets and holds a priority order for this load device. And the switch control part 62 sets the electric power feeding range which supplies electric power from the solar power generation device 4 to a load apparatus based on the priority order information of the load apparatus set according to the movement route R1.
As described above, in the DC power supply system 1B according to the second embodiment, the user performs an operation of designating the starting point and the destination on the control panel 64, thereby displaying the recommended moving route R1 on the control panel 64. be able to. Further, power can be preferentially supplied to the range determined along the movement route R1 and the load device at the destination.

[Third Embodiment]
As described above, in the DC power supply systems 1 and 1A of the first embodiment and the DC power supply system 1B of the second embodiment, when supplying power from the solar power generation device 4 to the power supply path, power is supplied. Power can be preferentially supplied to the required load device, and the power supply status to the load device can be presented to the user.
On the other hand, when the DC power supply 3 fails in the event of a disaster or the like, there is a possibility that a failure has occurred in the power supply path. For this reason, when power is supplied from the solar power generation device 4 to the power supply path in the event of a disaster, it is necessary to start power supply after detecting the occurrence of a failure in the power supply path.

Therefore, as a third embodiment of the present invention, an example of a DC power supply system that detects the occurrence of a failure in the power supply path will be described.
FIG. 23 is a configuration diagram showing a configuration of a DC power feeding system 1C according to the third embodiment of the present invention.
23 is different from the DC power supply system 1B of the second embodiment shown in FIG. 22 only in the configuration of the power supply device 6B.
FIG. 24 is a configuration diagram illustrating a configuration example of the power supply device 6B according to the third embodiment.
The power supply device 6B shown in FIG. 24 is different from the power supply device 6A of the second embodiment shown in FIG. 22 in that a failure occurrence detection unit 67 is newly added. The same as the power supply device 6A shown in FIG.

The failure occurrence detection unit 67 outputs a switch control signal output to the power supply paths P11 and N11 when transmitting the switch control signal CNT from the switch control unit 62 to the switch unit 100 via the power supply paths P11 and N11. A change in the voltage of the CNT is detected. Then, when the voltage of the switch control signal CNT falls below a preset voltage value, the failure occurrence detection unit 67 causes a failure in the newly connected power supply path by turning on the switch of the switch unit 100. It is determined that For example, when a short-circuit failure has occurred in a newly connected power supply path, the voltage of the switch control signal CNT is close to 0 V, so this is detected and it is determined that a failure has occurred in the power supply path. To do.
When the failure detection unit 67 detects the occurrence of a failure in the power supply path, the switch control unit 62 returns the switch unit 100 that has been turned on again to the open state, thereby causing the power supply path in which the failure has occurred. Is excluded from the power supply range.

As a result, the switch control unit 62 receives a notification from the failure occurrence detection unit 67, detects that a failure has occurred in the power supply path connected by the switch unit 100, and supplies power in which this failure has occurred. The route can be excluded from the power supply range. The switch control unit 62 also displays on the control panel 64 the power supply path where the failure has occurred.
For example, the control panel 64 displays the power supply path where the failure has occurred on a display screen of a single-line diagram of the power supply path (for example, see the display screen 641 of the single-line diagram shown in FIG. 9). For example, the control panel 64 displays the power supply path where the failure has occurred in yellow blinking display.
Then, for example, when the departure point and the destination are set in the “departure point and destination setting screen” shown in FIG. 18 and the recommended route setting unit 66 sets the recommended travel route, the power supply in which the failure has occurred is set. Set the travel route so as to exclude the route. An example in which the recommended route setting unit 66 sets the movement route by excluding the power supply path where the failure has occurred will be described later.

(Example of providing a failure occurrence detection unit on the switch unit 100 side)
By the way, as described above, when the switch control signal CNT is transmitted to the switch unit 100 and the switch unit 100 is closed, the power supply path newly connected by the switch unit 100 has a fault such as a line short circuit failure. If this occurs, the line impedance of the entire power supply path will be significantly reduced. As described above, when the line impedance of the power feeding path decreases, the switch control signal CNT cannot be transmitted from the switch control unit 62 to the switch unit 100, and the signal of the opening / closing result is transmitted from the switch unit 100 to the switch control unit 62. Notification is not possible.

As a first method for avoiding this problem, a failure occurrence detection unit is provided on the switch unit 100 side. FIG. 25 is a configuration diagram illustrating an example in which the failure occurrence detection unit is provided in the switch unit, and is an example in which the failure occurrence detection unit 76 is provided in the switch unit 100A.
In FIG. 25, a power supply device 6A is a power supply device having the same configuration as the power supply device 6 shown in FIG. Also, the switch unit 100A shown in FIG. 25 is different from the switch unit 100 shown in FIG. 24 in that a failure occurrence detection unit 76 is newly added, and the other configuration is the switch unit shown in FIG. 100. For this reason, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the same component.

In the switch unit 100A, the state of the switch 74 is controlled between the closed state having impedance, the normal closed state, and the open state by controlling the on / off state of the semiconductor switch elements constituting the switch 74. Three states can be selected.
For example, when a semiconductor circuit breaker with a current limiting function is used as the switch unit 100A and the switch 74 is turned on in the switch unit 100A, first, the switch 74 is closed with an impedance so that a failure occurs. Limit the current flowing in the path.
After that, when the failure occurrence detection unit 76 detects a change in the voltage of the switch control signal CNT and the voltage of the switch control signal CNT does not decrease to a predetermined value, no failure has occurred in the newly connected power supply path. Is determined.

On the other hand, when the switch 74 is closed with impedance and the voltage of the switch control signal CNT drops below a predetermined value, the failure detection unit 76 has a failure in the newly connected power supply path. Is determined. The failure occurrence detection unit 76 notifies the switch control unit 62 of the determination result via the power feeding path. The switch unit 100A is controlled to be in a normal closed state or a closed state in accordance with the next switch control signal CNT.
Note that the switch 74 may be in a closed state having an impedance, and when the occurrence of a failure is not detected by the failure occurrence detection unit 76, the switch 74 may be left in a normal closed state.
Accordingly, the switch control unit 62 receives a notification from the failure occurrence detection unit 76, detects that a failure has occurred in the power supply path connected by the switch unit 100A, and supplies power in which this failure has occurred. The route can be excluded from the power supply range.

As another method, the switch unit 100A may have an overcurrent trip function. That is, when a switch 74 is turned on and a new power supply path is connected, if a current greater than a preset current value flows through the switch 74, the switch 74 is automatically opened and the power supply path where the failure has occurred Separate. If the switch 74 has tripped overcurrent, the failure occurrence detection unit 76 notifies the switch control unit 62 of the result. The switch control unit 62 that has received a notification that an overcurrent trip has occurred from the failure detection unit 76 recognizes that a failure has occurred in the power supply path connected by the switch unit 100A, and sends the information to the control panel 64. indicate.
Thereby, the switch unit 100A can automatically disconnect the power supply path where the failure has occurred from the power supply range.
In the case of detecting a ground fault in the power supply path, the switch control signal CNT is applied between the positive power supply path (or the negative power supply line) and the ground line (earth line). Thus, the power supply path where the failure has occurred can be detected and excluded from the power supply range by the same method as the first and second methods described above.

(Movement route setting operation by the recommended route setting unit 66)
When the failure occurrence detection unit 67 detects a power supply path in which a failure has occurred, the recommended route setting unit 66 sets a movement route so as to exclude the power supply route in which the failure has occurred.
First, an example of setting a travel route when a failure has occurred in the power supply path will be described, and then an example of setting a travel route when a failure has occurred in the power supply path will be described.
FIG. 26 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an example of setting a travel route when no failure has occurred in the power feeding path. FIG. 26 shows an example of a display screen 200 </ b> B displayed on the control panel 64. The building layout shown in FIG. 26 is an example in which the building layout on the display screen 200A shown in FIG.

  That is, the layout on the display screen 200B shown in FIG. 26 is newly compared with the layout shown on the display screen 200A shown in FIG. 21, on the right side of the figure is a new staircase 677, power supply path 201D, power supply path 220D, The difference is that a power supply path 210D, a power supply path 211D, and lighting devices 711 to 715 are added. Other parts are the same as the layout shown in FIG. For this reason, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the same part and the overlapping description is abbreviate | omitted.

In the display screen 200B shown in FIG. 26, the power supply path 220A is branched from the power supply path 201A, and the power supply path 201D is branched. Further, in 2F, the power supply path 220D is branched from the power supply path 201D, and this power supply path 220D is connected to the lighting devices (LT) 711 and 712 installed in the 2F path 673 and the step 674 between 1F and 2F. Are connected to a lighting device (LT) 713 installed in
Further, in 1F, a power feeding path 210D and a power feeding path 211D are respectively branched from the power feeding path 201D, the power feeding path 210D is connected to the lighting device (LT) 714 of the lobby 676, and the power feeding path 211D is a lighting of the lobby 676. Connected to a device (LT) 715.

(Example of setting the travel route and power supply range when there is no failure in the power supply route)
Now, it is assumed that “2F area A21” is specified as the departure place and “1F lobby” is set as the destination on the “departure point and destination setting screen” shown in FIG.
As a result, the recommended route setting unit 66 selects a moving route that passes through the nearest staircase 674 so that the user can move safely, and sets a moving route R1 from “2F area A21” to “1F lobby” via the staircase 674 .
Then, on the display screen 200B, guidance display portions 292 to 296 corresponding to each area and each stairs are displayed. The guidance display sections 292 to 296 are displayed to indicate the direction of the moving route R1 from “2F area A21” to “1F lobby”.

Then, the recommended route setting unit 66 selects the lighting devices 702 to 706 and the air conditioner 707 of the 1F lobby 676 as a load device at the destination and the range along the travel route R1, and this selected load The device information is notified to the priority order holding unit 63.
The priority order holding unit 63 sets each priority order for the load devices notified from the recommended route setting unit 66 and stores the priority order in the priority order table.
FIG. 27 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of a priority table according to the travel route R1. As shown in the priority order table 636, the priority order holding unit 63 sets priorities in order for the lighting devices 702 to 705 in the range along the moving route R1 and the destination, and finally, the destination. A priority order is set for the air conditioner 707 of the 1F lobby 676.

As a result, in the priority table 635, the lighting device 702 has the highest priority load device among the highest priorities, and the lighting device 703 has the second highest priority. The load device, the illumination device 703 as the third load device, the illumination device 704 as the fourth load device, the illumination device 705 as the fifth load device, and the 1F lobby air conditioner 707 as the sixth load device Set.
The switch control unit 62 supplies power to the lighting device 703 to the power supply capability of the solar power generation device 4 in a state where power is supplied from the solar power generation device 4 to the lighting device 702 having the first priority. If there is enough power to do so, the next second illumination device 703 is selected to supply power. Furthermore, when the power supply capability of the solar power generation device 4 has enough power to supply power to the lighting device 704, the third-order lighting device 704 is selected to supply power. The same applies hereinafter.

  Then, it is assumed that power can be supplied from the lighting devices 702 to 706 and power cannot be supplied to the air conditioner 707 due to the limitation of the power generation amount of the solar power generation device 4. In such a state, the control panel 64 displays the lighting devices 702 to 706 to which power is supplied on the display screen 200B, for example, in “orange”. In addition, the power supply route connecting the lighting devices 702 to 706 and the power supply route 201A and the power supply route 201A are displayed in, for example, “blue”. That is, the hatched portion of the power supply path shown in the figure is displayed as the power supply range. In the power supply path, a portion where power is not supplied is displayed in, for example, “gray”.

(Setting example of moving route and power supply range when there is a failure in the power supply path)
Next, an example of setting the movement route and the power supply range when a failure occurs in the power supply path will be described.
FIG. 28 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an example of setting a movement route when a failure has occurred in the power supply path.
In the following description, an example will be described in which the failure occurrence detection unit 67 (FIG. 24) detects that a failure has occurred in the power supply path. The present invention can also be applied when the generation detection unit 76 (FIG. 25) detects.
Now, it is assumed that “2F area A21” is specified as the departure place and “1F lobby” is set as the destination on the “departure point and destination setting screen” shown in FIG. In addition, it is assumed that a failure occurs in the power supply path 220 </ b> C and power cannot be supplied to the lighting devices 701 to 703 in the 2F passage 673 and the staircase 674. The occurrence of a failure in the power supply path 220C is detected by the failure occurrence detection unit 67, and the failure occurrence detection unit 67 notifies the recommended route setting unit 66 of the detection information of the failure occurrence in the power supply route 220C.

The recommended route setting unit 66 stops setting the travel route from the “2F area A21” through the nearest staircase 674 by receiving the notification of the detection of the occurrence of the failure in the power supply path 220C from the failure occurrence detection unit 67. Then, the travel route passing through the opposite stairs 677 is selected, and the travel route R2 from the “2F area A21” to the “1F lobby” via the stairs 677 is set as the travel route.
The display screen 200 </ b> C displays a guidance display unit 292, a guidance display unit 291, and guidance display units 297 to 299 corresponding to each area and stairs. These guidance tables are displayed so as to indicate the direction of the moving route R2 from “2F area A21” to “1F lobby” via stairs 677.

Then, the recommended route setting unit 66 selects the lighting devices 711 to 715 and the air conditioner 707 of the 1F lobby 676 as the load device at the range and the destination along the travel route R2, and the load device Information is notified to the priority order holding unit 63.
The priority order holding unit 63 sets each priority order for the load devices notified from the recommended route setting unit 66 and stores the priority order in the priority order table.
FIG. 29 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of a priority table according to the travel route R2. As shown in this priority order table 636, the priority order holding unit 63 sets priorities in order for the lighting devices 711 to 715 in the range and destination along the movement route R2, and finally, the destination. A priority order is set for the air conditioner 707 of the 1F lobby 676.

As a result, in the priority table 636, the lighting device 711 has the highest priority load device among the highest priorities, and the lighting device 712 has the second highest priority. The load device, illumination device 713 is set as the third load device, illumination device 714 is set as the fourth load device, illumination device 715 is set as the fifth load device, and air conditioner 707 is set as the sixth load device.
And the switch control part 62 supplies electric power to the illuminating device 712 to the electric power supply capability of the solar power generating device 4 in the state which is supplying electric power to the illuminating device 711 of the 1st priority from the solar power generating device 4. If there is enough power to do so, the next second illumination device 712 is selected to supply power. Furthermore, when the power supply capability of the solar power generation device 4 has enough power to supply power to the lighting device 713, the third-ranking lighting device 713 is selected to supply power. The same applies hereinafter.

Then, it is assumed that power can be supplied from the lighting devices 711 to 715 and power cannot be supplied to the air conditioner 707 due to the limitation of the power generation amount of the solar power generation device 4. In such a power supply state, the control panel 64 displays the illumination devices 711 to 715 to which power is supplied on the display screen 200C, for example, in “orange”. In addition, the power supply path 220D that supplies power to the lighting devices 711 to 715, the power supply path 201D, and the power supply range in the power supply path 201A are displayed in, for example, “blue”. That is, the hatched portion of the power supply path shown in the figure is displayed as the power supply range. In the power supply path, a portion where power is not supplied is displayed in, for example, “gray”.
In the example of setting the movement route shown in FIG. 28, an example in which a failure has occurred in the power supply path, and the movement route R2 is set so as to avoid the range of the power supply path where the failure has occurred. Although shown, it is not limited to this, The setting of the priority of a movement route and a load apparatus can also be set according to the electric power generation amount of the solar power generation device 4. FIG.

  As described above, in the DC power supply system 1C of the third embodiment, the failure occurrence detection information indicating whether it is possible to supply power to the power supply path, the amount of power that can be supplied by the solar power generation device, Based on the priority information of the load device, it is possible to set a power supply range for supplying power to the load device and start supplying power. Further, the power supply range in the set power supply path can be displayed on the control panel 64.

[Fourth Embodiment]
In the first embodiment, the second embodiment, and the third embodiment, the example of the DC power supply system that supplies DC power to the load device connected to the power supply path has been described. ) May be used.
FIG. 30 is a configuration diagram showing a schematic configuration of an AC power feeding system 1D according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention. Compared with the DC power supply system 1 shown in FIG. 1, the AC power supply system 1D shown in FIG. 30 omits the DC power supply device 3 shown in FIG. The point that the PCS 8 is replaced with the PCS 8A that outputs an alternating voltage is different in configuration.
Also, the DC voltage feed paths P11 and N11 shown in FIG. 1 are replaced with a three-phase AC voltage feed path ACL11, and the feed paths P21 and N21 to P28 and N28 are replaced with a three-phase or single-phase feed path ACL21 to ACL28.

  In the AC power feeding system 1D having the above-described configuration, a high-voltage AC voltage (for example, 3-phase AC 6600V) supplied from the commercial power system PS is stepped down to a predetermined low-voltage AC voltage (for example, 3-phase AC 400V) by the transformer 2C. The AC voltage is output to the power supply path ACL11 which is the main power supply line.

The solar power generation device 4 is connected to the power supply path ACL11 via a power conditioner (PCS) 5A and a switch unit 101. In addition, a power storage device (BATT) 7 including a storage battery is connected to the power supply path ACL11 via the PCS 8A and the switch unit 102. The PCS 5A of the solar power generation device 4 and the PCS 8A of the power storage device 7 include a power conversion device such as a DC / AC converter (inverter) and a PCS transformer that boosts (or steps down) alternating current to a predetermined voltage.
The control operation in the AC power supply system 1D is different only in that the DC voltage in the DC power supply system 1 is replaced with an AC voltage. The basic operations of the power supply device 6, the PCS 5A, the switch unit 100, etc. are shown in FIG. This is the same as the operation in the DC power supply system 1 shown.

When this power storage device 7 is not provided, for example, in the DC power supply system 1, when the DC power supply device 3 is in a power failure state and power is not supplied to the power supply paths P11 and N11, the power supply device 6 immediately turns off the PCS5. It is activated or is activated by a user instruction. The same applies to the AC power feeding system 1D.

  In the above embodiment, the functions of the processing units in the power supply device 6, the power supply device 6A, and the power supply device 6B may be realized by dedicated hardware. The program for realizing the above function may be recorded on a computer-readable recording medium, and the program recorded on the recording medium may be read into a computer system and executed to realize the function. .
