That is, it may be a physically separated configuration or a logically separated configuration. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the same component and description is abbreviate | omitted suitably.

<First Embodiment>
First, an overview and an outline of the control system of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. The control system of the present embodiment includes a first device 10 and a second device 20. The first device 10 and the second device 20 cooperate to execute a predetermined process. For example, although the 1st apparatus 10 is a central control apparatus which transmits a storage battery control signal, and the 2nd apparatus 20 is a terminal side control apparatus which controls a storage battery based on a storage battery control signal, it is not limited to this.

The first device 10 has a function of inputting / outputting data, a function of storing data, and a function of performing arithmetic processing. Similarly, the second device 20 has a function of inputting / outputting data, a function of storing data, and a function of arithmetic processing. The first device 10 and the second device 20 are connected to each other via a communication line 30 and can transmit and receive information.

The first device 10 acquires first time series data. The first time series data includes values of predetermined items (eg, frequency, current value, voltage value, power factor, etc.) of the power system (power line 40) continuously measured by the measurement sensor 60 every predetermined time. Time-series data). The first time series data is associated with time information at the time of measurement of each value based on the first clock used in the first device 10. The first device 10 may have a measurement sensor 60. The first device 10 may have a first timepiece.

The second device 20 acquires second time series data. The second time-series data is a value of a predetermined item (eg, frequency, current value, voltage value, power factor, etc.) of the power system (power line 40) continuously measured by the measurement sensor 70 every predetermined time. Time-series data). The second time series data is associated with time information at the time of measurement of each value based on the second clock used in the second device 20. The second device 20 may have a measurement sensor 70. The second device 20 may include a second timepiece.

The measurement position of the measurement sensor 60 and the measurement position of the measurement sensor 70 are substantially the same as the time changes of the values of the predetermined items of the power system (eg, frequency, current value, voltage value, power factor, values normalized by these). Satisfies the relationship of “same state at timing”. For example, in the case of Japan, the system frequency is different between West Japan and East Japan, but both the measurement sensor 60 and the measurement sensor 70 can use the same system frequency area as the measurement position. More preferably, the measurement sensor 60 and the measurement sensor 70 can be located in the same power company jurisdiction. More preferably, the measurement sensor 60 and the measurement sensor 70 can set the measurement position to a region of the same new power jurisdiction within the same power company jurisdiction, a section to receive power supply from the same distribution station, or the like.

The control device (not shown in FIG. 2) of the present embodiment includes a first timepiece used in the first device 10 and a second time series based on the first time-series data and the second time-series data. The time difference from the second clock used in the device 20 is calculated. In the present embodiment, the first device 10 or the second device 20 includes a control device. Hereinafter, the configuration of the control device will be described in detail.

FIG. 3 shows an example of a functional block diagram of the control device 100. As illustrated, the control device 100 includes a first acquisition unit 101 and a time shift calculation unit 102.

The first acquisition unit 101 acquires first time series data and second time series data. The first time-series data is time-series data in which time information at the time of measurement is associated with measurement values of predetermined items of the power system based on a first clock used in the first device 10. The second time-series data is time-series data in which time information at the time of measurement is associated with measured values of predetermined items of the power system based on a second clock used in the second device 20.

Details of the first time series data and the second time series data are as described above. The first time series data and the second time series data are preferably time series data measured at the same time in the same sampling period.

In the region where the reference value of the system frequency is 50 Hz, the time interval of one waveform is 0.02 seconds. Therefore, the sampling period of the first time-series data and the second time-series data is less than 0.02 seconds when the measurement target is current, voltage, and power factor, and is 0. 0 when the measurement target is the system frequency. It is preferably about 02 seconds. Similarly, in a region where the reference value of the system frequency is 60 Hz, the time interval of one waveform is about 0.017 seconds. Therefore, the sampling period of the first time-series data and the second time-series data is less than 0.017 seconds when the measurement target is current, voltage and power factor, and is 0. 0 when the measurement target is the system frequency. It is preferable that the time be around 017 seconds.

FIG. 4 schematically shows an example of the first time series data. As shown in the drawing, the first time series data is data in which measurement values of predetermined items are associated with times at the time of measurement of the respective measurement values. The time at the time of measurement is a value specified based on the first clock. FIG. 5 schematically shows an example of the second time-series data. As shown in the figure, the second time series data is also data in which the measurement values of the predetermined items are associated with the times at the time of measurement of the respective measurement values. The time at the time of measurement is a value specified based on the second clock.

Examples of the measured value of the predetermined item of the power system include, but are not limited to, a frequency (system frequency), a current value, a voltage value, a power factor, a value obtained by standardizing these, and the like.

When the first device 10 shown in FIG. 2 includes the control device 100, the control device 100 generates first time series data and receives the second time series data from the second device 20. For example, the second device 20 may transmit measurement values measured at a cycle of several seconds to the first device 10 (the control device 100) at a cycle of several seconds. In addition, the second device 20 accumulates the measured values measured, for example, in a cycle of several seconds, collects the accumulated measured values, and, for example, the first device 10 (control device 100) in a cycle of several tens of minutes to several hours. May be sent to. This assumption is the same in all the following embodiments.

2 has the control device 100, the control device 100 generates second time-series data and receives the first time-series data from the first device 10. For example, the first device 10 may transmit measurement values measured at a cycle of several seconds to the second device 20 (the control device 100) at a cycle of several seconds. In addition, the first device 10 accumulates measurement values measured, for example, in a cycle of several seconds, and collects the accumulated measurement values, for example, the second device 20 (control device 100) in a cycle of several tens of minutes to several hours. May be sent to. This assumption is the same in all the following embodiments.

Referring back to FIG. 3, the time lag calculation unit 102 calculates the time lag between the first clock and the second clock based on the first time series data and the second time series data.

The time lag calculation unit 102 calculates the time lag based on the similarity between the waveform of the first time series data and the waveform of the second time series data.

Note that the time lag calculation unit 102 is based on the waveform similarity based on the predetermined time data in the first time series data and the waveform similarity based on the predetermined time data in the second time series data. The time lag can be calculated. The predetermined time is a design matter that can be determined within a range in which a rough tendency of the waveform (a trend component excluding noise) can be understood.

FIG. 6 shows a diagram in which the first time series data and the second time series data are plotted on a graph. The horizontal axis is time, and the vertical axis is system frequency.

The time shift calculation unit 102 calculates the similarity between two waveforms while shifting (moving) one waveform on the time axis. The shifting time is a value obtained by multiplying the sampling period of the first time series data and the second time series data by an integer. Then, the time shift calculation unit 102 calculates the shifted time t when the similarity is equal to or higher than a predetermined level as the time shift between the first clock and the second clock.

The time lag calculation unit 102 may calculate the correlation coefficient of the first time series data and the second time series data as the similarity. In this case, the time shift calculation unit 102 calculates the shifted time t when the correlation coefficient is equal to or greater than a predetermined value as the time shift between the first clock and the second clock.

In addition, the time-series data of the difference obtained by subtracting the other time-series data from one time-series data (the data obtained by arranging the difference obtained by subtracting the other value from one value in time series for each corresponding timing) The similarity may be calculated. In this case, for example, the time lag calculation unit 102 calculates the shifted time t when a statistical value (eg, maximum value, average value) of a plurality of values included in the time series data of the difference is equal to or less than a predetermined value, You may calculate as a time gap between the 1st timepiece and the 2nd timepiece.

The time shift calculation unit 102 may calculate the similarity corresponding to each while gradually increasing or decreasing the shift time tn and compare the similarity with a predetermined value. In this case, the number of times of similarity calculation and comparison tends to increase. Thus, for example, the time lag calculation unit 102 may employ the following algorithm.

For example, when there are ten candidates for the shift time from t1 to t10 (t1 <t2 <t3... <T9 <t10), these may be divided into a plurality of groups in the order of the values. Here, it is assumed that the group is divided into t1 to t5 groups and two groups t6 to t10. Then, the time lag calculation unit 102 calculates the degree of similarity corresponding to each representative member (eg, t3 and t8) of each group. If any one of the calculated similarities is equal to or greater than a predetermined value, the time shift calculation unit 102 sets the shifted time as the time shift.

On the other hand, if any of the similarities is less than the predetermined value, the time lag calculation unit 102 identifies the group with the higher similarity. Then, the degree of similarity is calculated for each member belonging to the specified group and compared with a predetermined value. The degree of similarity of each member of the specified group may be calculated, or the members of the specified group may be grouped in the same manner as described above and the same processing may be performed. According to this method, the number of similarity calculations and comparisons can be reduced.

Note that the relationship between the first device 10 and the second device 20 may be one-to-one or may be one-to-multiple. This assumption is the same in all the following embodiments.

In the case of one-to-multiple, the first acquisition unit 101 associates time information at the time of measurement with measurement values of predetermined items of the power system based on the first timepiece used in the first device 10. Based on the time-series data and the plurality of second clocks used in each of the plurality of second devices 20, a plurality of second times in which time information at the time of measurement is associated with measured values of predetermined items of the power system. And time-series data. Then, the time lag calculation unit 102 calculates a time lag between the first clock and each of the plurality of second clocks based on the first time series data and each of the plurality of second time series data. calculate.

Further, only the first device 10 may be provided with a GPS receiver, and may have a function of correcting the time of the first clock based on the GPS signal. By calculating the time difference between the first timepiece and one or more second timepieces, the time difference between the one or more second timepieces can be accurately calculated. This assumption is the same in all the following embodiments.

Next, an example of the flow of processing of the control device 100 of this embodiment will be described using the flowchart of FIG.

First, the first acquisition unit 101 is based on a first clock used in the first device 10, and first time-series data in which time information at the time of measurement is associated with measurement values of predetermined items of the power system. And based on the 2nd timepiece used with the 2nd apparatus 20, the 2nd time series data which matched time information at the time of measurement with the measured value of the predetermined item of an electric power system is acquired (S10). .

Next, the time lag calculation unit 102 calculates the time lag between the first clock and the second clock based on the first time series data and the second time series data.

According to the present embodiment described above, a new technique for calculating the time lag between devices is realized. By correcting the time of the clock based on the time lag calculated in this way, time synchronization between the devices is realized. According to the present embodiment, a new time synchronization technique is realized.

In the case of this embodiment, it is not necessary for each device to include an expensive device such as a GPS receiver. For this reason, the time synchronization realization method of this embodiment is excellent in cost.

In this embodiment, the time lag can be calculated based on the similarity between the waveform of the first time series data and the waveform of the second time series data. The measured value of the predetermined item of the power system may be the same value continuously. For this reason, when the similarity between the first time-series data and the second time-series data is calculated using only measured values at a certain time point, and a time lag is calculated, there is a possibility of calculating an incorrect time lag. In the present embodiment in which the time lag can be calculated based on the similarity between the waveform of the first time-series data and the waveform of the second time-series data, the time lag calculation accuracy can be increased.

As a modification of the present embodiment, a third device that is physically and / or logically separated from the first device 10 and the second device 20 may include the control device 100. The third device receives the first time-series data and the second time-series data from the first device 10 and the second device 20, and based on them, the first timepiece and the second timepiece The time difference between them is calculated.

<Second Embodiment>
The control device 100 according to the present embodiment has a function of correcting the first time series data and the second time series data. For example, when the sampling period of the first time-series data and the second time-series data is larger than the minimum value of the time shift to be detected, a desired time shift cannot be detected. The control device 100 corrects the sampling period by interpolating the data into the first time series data and the second time series data so that a desired time lag can be detected. This will be described below.

FIG. 8 shows an example of a functional block diagram of the control device 100 of the present embodiment. As illustrated, the control device 100 includes a first acquisition unit 101, a time shift calculation unit 102, and a correction unit 103. The configurations of the first acquisition unit 101 and the time shift calculation unit 102 are the same as those in the first embodiment.

The correction unit 103 interpolates data into the first time series data and the second time series data.

The first acquisition unit 101 inputs the first time series data and the second time series data to the correction unit 103. The correction unit 103 determines whether interpolation is necessary based on a reference value of a sampling period that is held in advance.

The correction unit 103 determines that the interpolation for the first time-series data and the second time-series data is unnecessary when the “sampling period is equal to or less than the reference value”. Then, the correction unit 103 inputs the first time series data and the second time series data to the time shift calculation unit 102 as they are.

On the other hand, when the “sampling period does not satisfy the reference value or less”, the correction unit 103 determines that interpolation for the first time series data and the second time series data is necessary. Then, the correction unit 103 performs an interpolation process on the first time-series data and the second time-series data, and then converts the first time-series data and the second time-series data after the interpolation process to a time Input to the deviation calculation unit 102.

The correction unit 103 can employ any technique to interpolate data. For example, spline interpolation is exemplified. For example, the correcting unit 103 may estimate the data value between the preceding and subsequent data values and interpolate the estimated value.

The time lag calculation unit 102 calculates the time lag between the first clock and the second clock based on the data input from the correction unit 103.

According to the present embodiment described above, the same operational effects as those of the first embodiment can be realized. Further, according to the present embodiment, by interpolating data into the first time-series data and the second time-series data, it becomes possible to increase the resolution of the detectable time lag and calculate the desired time lag. .

In addition, when calculating the statistical index (correlation, error) of similarity, if there is a defect (for example, at the time of data transmission / reception) in the waveform data of either the first time-series data or the second time-series data, both The sampling numbers of do not match, and similarity cannot be calculated. By performing data interpolation as described in the present embodiment, a missing portion can be compensated. As a result, even if data loss occurs, similarity can be calculated.

<Third Embodiment>
The control system of the present embodiment further has a function of correcting the second clock based on the calculated time lag and synchronizing the first clock and the second clock. This will be described below. In the present embodiment, it is assumed that the first device 10 shown in FIG.

Although not shown, the control device 100 may further include a correction unit 103. The configurations of the first acquisition unit 101, the time shift calculation unit 102, and the correction unit 103 are the same as those in the first and second embodiments.

The transmission unit 104 transmits to the second device 20 a correction instruction for correcting the second clock based on the calculated time difference. The correction instruction includes the contents of the time lag (the progress time or the delay time).

The second device 20 that has received the correction instruction corrects the second clock according to the correction instruction, and eliminates the time lag with respect to the first clock.

According to the present embodiment described above, the same operational effects as those of the first and second embodiments can be realized. Further, according to the present embodiment, the first clock and the second clock can be synchronized by correcting the second clock.

This will be described below. In the present embodiment, it is assumed that the first device 10 shown in FIG. That is, the first device 10 generates estimation information.

Although not shown, the control device 100 may further include a correction unit 103. The configurations of the first acquisition unit 101, the time shift calculation unit 102, the correction unit 103, and the transmission unit 104 are the same as those in the first to fourth embodiments.

The estimated information generation unit 105 generates estimated information for calculating the time lag from the elapsed time based on the elapsed time and the past results indicating the time lag generated during the elapsed time.

The time lag calculation unit 102 repeatedly calculates the time lag between the first clock and the second clock at a predetermined cycle (a cycle of several tens of minutes to several hours). Then, the transmission unit 104 transmits a correction instruction based on the calculated time lag to the second device 20 each time.

The elapsed time is an elapsed time from the nth process to the (n + 1) th process. The time lag occurring during the elapsed time is the time lag calculated in the (n + 1) th process.

It is a design matter to determine the timing of the start and end points of elapsed time. In the case of the above example, for example, the timing at which the correction instruction is transmitted to the second device 20 in the n-th process may be set as the starting point of the elapsed time. In addition, after transmitting the correction instruction to the second device 20, the first device 10 may receive a completion notification indicating that the correction of the second clock has been completed from the second device 20. And the 1st apparatus 10 is good also considering the said reception timing as the starting point of elapsed time.

Also, the timing at which the time lag is calculated in the (n + 1) th process may be the end point of the elapsed time.

Such past results are stored in the control device 100 or in an external device configured to be able to communicate with the control device 100. When the relationship between the first device 10 and the second device 20 is one-to-multiple, past results are accumulated in association with each of the plurality of second devices 20.

The estimation information generation unit 105 generates estimation information (eg, estimation formula) for calculating a time lag from the elapsed time based on such past results. The generation method of the estimation information is a design matter, and for example, a method such as regression analysis can be adopted.

The time lag calculating unit 102 can calculate the time lag between the first clock and the second clock based on the estimated information and the elapsed time after the estimated information is generated.

According to the present embodiment described above, the same operational effects as those of the first to fourth embodiments can be realized. Further, according to the present embodiment, it is possible to calculate the time difference between the first clock and the second clock based on the elapsed time and the estimated information. After the estimation information is generated, the calculation method based on the first time series data and the second time series data is replaced with a calculation method based on the elapsed time and the estimation information, so that the calculation burden on the computer can be reduced.

The first grouping unit 106 creates a group of second clocks having similar time shift trends. The grouping method is a design matter. For example, the time lag at the elapsed time m may be divided into a group having a predetermined value or more and a group having a predetermined value or less. The number of groups is not limited to two and may be more than that.

The estimation information generation unit 105 generates estimation information common to each group for each group. That is, the estimated information generation unit 105 does not generate estimated information for each second clock, but generates estimated information for each group.

For example, the estimation information generation unit 105 estimates, for each group, estimation information that calculates a time lag from the elapsed time based on all or part of past results of a plurality of members (second clocks) of each group (example: estimation) Expression). The generation method of the estimation information is a design matter, and for example, a method such as regression analysis can be adopted.

For this reason, compared with the case where estimation information is produced | generated corresponding to each of several 2nd timepiece, the processing burden of a computer can be reduced.

<Seventh Embodiment>
The control system of the present embodiment further has a function of generating estimation information for calculating a time shift from the elapsed time based on past results indicating the elapsed time and the time shift therebetween. This will be described below. In the present embodiment, it is assumed that the second device 20 shown in FIG. That is, the second device 20 generates estimation information.

The time lag calculation unit 102 repeatedly calculates the time lag between the first clock and the second clock at a predetermined cycle (a cycle of several tens of minutes to several hours). Then, the correction unit 107 corrects the second timepiece based on the calculated time difference each time.

It is a design matter to determine the timing of the start and end points of elapsed time. In the case of the above example, for example, the timing at which the second clock is corrected in the n-th process may be set as the starting point of the elapsed time. The timing at which the time lag is calculated in the (n + 1) th process may be the end point of the elapsed time.

Such past results are stored in the control device 100 or in an external device configured to be able to communicate with the control device 100. When the relationship between the first device 10 and the second device 20 is one-to-multiple, each control device 100 included in each second device 20 or an external device configured to be able to communicate with each control device 100 Each past performance is accumulated in the inside.

<Eighth Embodiment>
In the control system of the present embodiment, the first device 10 shown in FIG. 2 transmits a control signal to the second device 20. The second device 20 operates based on the control signal. The control device 100 further has a function of calculating a response time from the transmission of the control signal by the first device 10 until the operation according to the control signal by the second device 20 is performed. This will be described below.

FIG. 14 shows an example of a functional block diagram of the control device 100 of the present embodiment. As illustrated, the control device 100 includes a first acquisition unit 101, a time lag calculation unit 102, a second acquisition unit 201, and a response time calculation unit 202. Although not shown, the control apparatus 100 further includes one or more of a correction unit 103, a transmission unit 104, an estimation information generation unit 105, a first grouping unit 106, and a correction unit 107.

It is the same.

The second acquisition unit 201 acquires the third time series data and the fourth time series data. The third time series data indicates the content of the control signal transmitted from the first device 10 to the second device 20 and the transmission time from the first device 10 attached based on the first clock. . The fourth time-series data indicates the operation content of the second device 20 and the operation time assigned based on the second clock.

When the first device 10 is a central control device that transmits a storage battery control signal (control signal) and the second device 20 is a terminal-side control device that controls the storage battery based on the storage battery control signal (control signal), the storage battery The content of the control signal (control signal) is, for example, a command value for the output power [W] or the charging power [W] of the storage battery. The operation content of the second device 20 is a measured value (response value) of the output power [W] or the charging power [W] of the storage battery operated under the control of the second device 20. FIGS. 15 and 16 schematically show examples of such third time-series data and fourth time-series data.

The content of the storage battery control signal (control signal) may be a value for calculating a command value for the output power [W] or the charging power [W] of the storage battery. For example, information for specifying the burden ratio is given to each of the plurality of second devices 20 in advance. Then, as the storage battery control signal (control signal), the value of the output power [W] or the charging power [W] of the entire plurality of storage batteries is transmitted to each second device 20. Here, since the contents transmitted to the plurality of second devices 20 are the same contents, they may be transmitted simultaneously by broadcast or the like. Each second device 20 calculates its own share of the output power [W] or charging power [W] of the plurality of storage batteries as a command value. The premise regarding the contents of the storage battery control signal (control signal) is the same in all of the following embodiments. Even in such a case, it is possible to realize the same effect as the case where the content of the storage battery control signal (control signal) is a command value.

The first device 10 generates third time series data, and the second device 20 generates fourth time series data.

When the first device 10 shown in FIG. 2 includes the control device 100, the control device 100 generates third time series data and receives the fourth time series data from the second device 20. For example, the second device 20 may transmit a response value measured at a cycle of several seconds to the first device 10 (the control device 100) at a cycle of several seconds. In addition, the second device 20 accumulates response values measured, for example, in a cycle of several seconds, and collects the accumulated response values, for example, the first device 10 (control device 100) in a cycle of several tens of minutes to several hours, for example. May be sent to. This assumption is the same in all the following embodiments.

When the second device 20 includes the control device 100, the control device 100 generates fourth time-series data and receives the third time-series data from the first device 10.

The response time calculation unit 202 calculates the response time from the transmission time of the control signal to the operation time when the operation corresponding to the control signal is performed based on the third time series data and the fourth time series data. .

The response time calculation unit 202 calculates a response time based on the similarity between the waveform of the third time series data and the waveform of the fourth time series data.

Note that the response time calculation unit 202 is based on a waveform based on data for a predetermined time in the third time-series data and a waveform similarity based on the data for the predetermined time in the fourth time-series data. The time lag can be calculated. The predetermined time is a design matter that can be determined within a range in which a rough tendency of the waveform (a trend component excluding noise) can be understood.

FIG. 17 shows a diagram in which the third time-series data and the fourth time-series data are plotted on a graph. The horizontal axis is time, and the vertical axis is a value obtained by standardizing command values and response values under predetermined conditions.

The response time calculation unit 202 calculates the similarity between two waveforms while shifting one waveform on the time axis (moving). The shifting time is a value obtained by multiplying the sampling period of the third time series data and the fourth time series data by an integer. Then, the response time calculation unit 202 calculates the shifted time t ′ when the similarity is equal to or higher than a predetermined level as the response time.

The response time calculation unit 202 may calculate the correlation coefficient of the third time series data and the fourth time series data as the similarity. In this case, the response time calculation unit 202 calculates the shifted time t ′ when the correlation coefficient is equal to or greater than a predetermined value as the response time.

In addition, the time-series data of the difference obtained by subtracting the other time-series data from one time-series data (the data obtained by arranging the difference obtained by subtracting the other value from one value in time series for each corresponding timing) The similarity may be calculated. In this case, for example, the response time calculation unit 202 calculates a shifted time t ′ when a statistical value (eg, maximum value, average value) of a plurality of values included in the time series data of the difference is equal to or less than a predetermined value. The response time may be calculated.

When the relationship between the first device 10 and the second device 20 is one-to-multiple, the second acquisition unit 201 uses third time-series data based on the first clock used in the first device 10. And a plurality of fourth time series data based on each of the plurality of second clocks used in each of the plurality of second devices 20. Then, the response time calculation unit 202 calculates a response time corresponding to each of the plurality of second devices 20 based on the third time series data and each of the plurality of fourth time series data.

According to the present embodiment described above, the same operational effects as those of the first to seventh embodiments can be realized. Further, according to the present embodiment, the response time from the transmission time at which the control signal is transmitted from the first device 10 to the operation time at which the operation by the second device 20 corresponding to the control signal is performed is calculated. be able to. With the method described in the first to seventh embodiments, time synchronization between the first clock used in the first device 10 and the second clock used in the second device 20 is performed. Thus, the response time can be calculated with high accuracy.

In the present embodiment, the response time can be calculated based on the similarity between the waveform of the third time series data and the waveform of the fourth time series data. The command value and the response value may be the same value in succession. For this reason, when the similarity between the third time-series data and the fourth time-series data is calculated using only the command value and the response value at a certain point in time and the response time is calculated, there is a possibility of calculating an incorrect response time. is there. In the case of this embodiment in which the response time can be calculated based on the similarity between the waveform of the third time series data and the waveform of the fourth time series data, the calculation accuracy of the response time can be increased.

In S209, each terminal-side control device 21 generates estimated information for calculating a time lag from the elapsed time based on the information accumulated in S208.

In subsequent S206, a time lag is calculated based on the estimated information generated in S209 and the elapsed time. Thereafter, the same processing is repeated.

Here, a modified example of the flow shown in FIG. 24 will be described. The central control device 11 measures the signal at a cycle of several seconds (S201), and instead of the process of transmitting the signal to the terminal-side control device 21 at a cycle of several seconds (S203), measures the signal at a cycle of several seconds. The signals may be accumulated, and the accumulated signals may be collectively transmitted to the terminal-side control device 21 with a period of several tens of minutes to several hours. Other processing can be the same as described above.

FIG. 25 shows an example of a processing flow in which the central controller 11 executes “calculation of response time”.

In S301, the central controller 11 calculates a command value.

In S302, the central control device 11 transmits a command value to each terminal-side control device 21. The central controller 11 stores the command value and the transmission time in association with each other (third time-series data).

In S303, each terminal-side control device 21 receives the command value.

In S304, each terminal-side control device 21 accumulates the command value.

In S305, each terminal-side control device 21 transmits a control signal to the storage battery 50 and makes it respond with a command value.

In S306, each terminal-side control device 21 measures and accumulates the response value (output power or charging power) of each storage battery 50. The response value is stored in association with the time of measurement (fourth time series data).

In the figure, S306 is executed after S305, but S306 may be a flow independent of S303 to S305. That is, in S306, regardless of the processing in S303 to S305, the output power or the charging power of each storage battery 50 may be repeatedly measured and stored in association with the time of measurement.

The processing from S301 to S306 is repeatedly executed at a cycle of several seconds.

The processing from S307 to S313 is repeatedly executed at a cycle of several tens of minutes to several hours.

In S307, each terminal-side control device 21 transmits the fourth time-series data in which the response value is associated with the measurement time to the central control device 11.

In S308, the central control device 11 receives and accumulates the fourth time-series data from each terminal-side control device 21.

In S309, the central control device 11 determines the response time corresponding to each terminal-side control device 21 based on the third time-series data and each of the fourth time-series data received from each terminal-side control device 21. Calculate an estimate.

In S310, the central controller 11 accumulates the estimated response time calculated for each terminal-side controller 21.

In S312, each terminal-side control device 21 receives an estimated value of response time. In S313, each terminal-side control device 21 accumulates the estimated response time.

Here, a modified example of the flow shown in FIG. 25 will be described. The terminal-side control device 21 measures the response value at a cycle of several seconds (S306), and instead of the process of transmitting the response value to the central control device 11 at a cycle of several seconds (S307), measures the response value at a cycle of several seconds, The measured response values may be accumulated, and the response values accumulated in a period of several tens of minutes to several hours may be collectively transmitted to the central controller 11. Other processing can be the same as described above.

Other modifications will be described. In the above example, when receiving the command value (S303), the terminal-side control device 21 causes the storage battery 50 to execute a response with the command value without delay in response to the reception (S305). As a modification, a response time may be associated with the command value. And the terminal side control apparatus 21 may make the storage battery 50 perform the response by a command value, if it detects that it became the response time or the time (time or time) before the response time. In this case, the terminal-side control device 21 keeps the storage battery 50 at the previous command value until it detects that the response time of the next command value or a time (time or time) a predetermined time before the response time is reached. The response may be continued.

As another modification, the central control device 11 calculates a command value corresponding to each terminal-side control device 21 (S301), and executes the following process instead of the process of transmitting the command value (S302). Also good. That is, as described in the eighth embodiment, the central control device 11 may calculate a value for calculating the command value instead of the command value and transmit the value to the terminal-side control device 21. And each terminal side control apparatus 21 may calculate the command value corresponding to self.

For example, a burden ratio is given to each of the plurality of terminal-side control devices 21 in advance. Then, the central control device 11 calculates the value of the output power [W] or the charging power [W] across the plurality of storage batteries 50 in S301, and transmits the value to each terminal-side control device 21 in S302. Each terminal-side control device 21 receives the value transmitted in S302 (S303). Then, each terminal-side control device 21 calculates a share ratio given in advance among the values received in S303 as a command value corresponding to itself.

As another modification, S311 to S313 may be omitted from the flow. By implementing S311 thru | or S313, a consumer side (user who manages the terminal side control apparatus 21) can also grasp | ascertain response time. If it is not necessary to grasp the response time on the customer side, S311 to S313 may be omitted from the flow.

FIG. 26 shows an example of a processing flow in which each terminal-side control device 21 executes “response time calculation”.

In S401, the central controller 11 calculates a command value.

In S <b> 402, the central control device 11 transmits a command value to each terminal-side control device 21. The information transmitted here includes the transmission time at which the central controller 11 transmits the command value.

In S403, each terminal-side control device 21 receives the command value.

In S404, each terminal-side control device 21 accumulates the command value and the transmission time (third time-series data).

In S405, each terminal-side control device 21 transmits a control signal to the storage battery 50 and makes it respond with a command value.

In S406, each terminal-side control device 21 measures and stores the response value (output power or charging power) of each storage battery 50. The response value is stored in association with the time of measurement (fourth time series data).

In the figure, S406 is executed after S405, but S406 may be a flow independent from S403 to S405. That is, in S406, regardless of the processing in S403 to S405, the output power or the charging power of each storage battery 50 may be repeatedly measured and stored in association with the time of measurement.

The processing from S401 to S406 is repeatedly executed at a cycle of several seconds.

The processing from S407 to S410 is repeatedly executed at a cycle of several tens of minutes to several hours.

In S407, each terminal-side control device 21 calculates an estimated value of the response time of each terminal-side control device 21 based on the third time-series data and the fourth time-series data.

In S408, each terminal-side control device 21 transmits the calculated estimated response time value to the central control device 11.

In S409, the central controller 11 receives the estimated response time from each terminal-side controller 21.

In S401, the central control device 11 stores the estimated response time in association with each terminal-side control device 21.

Here, a modified example of the flow shown in FIG. 26 will be described. Another modification will be described. In the above example, when receiving the command value (S403), the terminal-side control device 21 causes the storage battery 50 to execute a response with the command value without delay (S405). As a modification, a response time may be associated with the command value. And the terminal side control apparatus 21 may make the storage battery 50 perform the response by a command value, if it detects that it became the response time or the time (time or time) before the response time. In this case, the terminal-side control device 21 keeps the storage battery 50 at the previous command value until it detects that the response time of the next command value or a time (time or time) a predetermined time before the response time is reached. The response may be continued.

As another modification, the central control device 11 calculates a command value corresponding to each terminal-side control device 21 (S401), and executes the following process instead of the process of transmitting the command value (S402). Also good. That is, as described in the eighth embodiment, the central control device 11 may calculate a value for calculating the command value instead of the command value and transmit the value to the terminal-side control device 21. And each terminal side control apparatus 21 may calculate the command value corresponding to self.

For example, a burden ratio is given to each of the plurality of terminal-side control devices 21 in advance. Then, the central control device 11 calculates the value of the output power [W] or the charging power [W] for the entire plurality of storage batteries 50 in S401, and transmits the value to each terminal-side control device 21 in S402. Each terminal-side control device 21 receives the value transmitted in S402 (S403). Then, each terminal-side control device 21 calculates a share ratio given in advance among the values received in S403 as a command value corresponding to itself.

Next, an example of application of the control system of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.

The control system of the application example has a central system and a terminal system. The central system and the terminal system can communicate with each other. In the figure, one terminal side system is shown, but the relationship between the central side system and the terminal side system may be one to plural. The central system has a central controller 11, and the terminal system has a terminal controller 21.

The central system has a central power supply command center system and a cloud server. The terminal side system includes a GW (gateway), a local terminal, and an ESS (Energy Storage System). The ESS includes a system controller (syscon), a PCS (Power Conditioning System), and a storage battery.

The central power supply command center system has a central controller 11. The system of the central power supply command station calculates a command value or a value for calculating the command value. Then, the central power supply command station system transmits the calculated command value or a storage battery control signal including a value for calculating the command value to the terminal-side system via the cloud server. The storage battery control signal may further include a response time. For example, the system of the central power supply command station may grasp the current time based on the first clock and determine the response time based on the current time.

When the response time corresponding to each of the plurality of terminal-side control devices 21 (response time from the transmission time of the storage battery control signal to the operation time at which the operation corresponding to the control signal is performed) is calculated, the central power supply command The system may determine a response time and a command value at that time or a value for calculating the command value based on the response time. For example, the system of the central power supply command station specifies the maximum value Tmax in the response time T corresponding to each of the plurality of terminal-side control devices 21, and the time when Tmax has elapsed from the current time determined based on the first clock. A later time may be determined as the response time.

The storage battery of the terminal-side system is connected to the power system, and performs power output (reverse power flow) to the power system and power reception (charging) from the power system. The PCS controls power output from the storage battery and charging to the storage battery in accordance with a control signal from the system controller. The control signal includes a command value (output power [W] / charging power [W]). For example, when receiving a command value from the system controller, the PCS causes the storage battery to execute a response with the command value without delay.

System controller controls ESS operation. The system controller may include the terminal side control device 21. In this case, the storage battery control signal transmitted from the central system is input to the system controller via the GW and the local terminal. In addition, you may input into a system controller from GW not via a local terminal.

The system controller that acquired the storage battery control signal specifies the command value based on the storage battery control signal. Further, the system controller specifies a response time based on the storage battery control signal. Then, the system controller detects that the response time or the time (time or time) that is a predetermined time before the response time is reached based on the current time determined based on the second clock. The predetermined time here may be determined based on, for example, the time required from the transmission of the control signal from the system controller to the response of the storage battery. When detecting that the response time or the time (time or time) before the response time is reached, the system controller transmits to the PCS a control signal to respond (output / charge) with the command value. When receiving the command value from the system controller, the PCS causes the storage battery to execute a response with the command value without delay. The system controller can recognize the command value of the storage battery control signal from the response time based on the storage battery control signal or the current time based on the second clock, a predetermined time before the response time. Until the system controller and PCS detect that the next response time or the time (time or time) a predetermined time before the next response time is detected, the battery controller continues the response with the previous command value. Also good.

The storage battery control signal may not include the response time. In this case, the system controller repeatedly receives the storage battery control signal at a predetermined cycle (eg, a cycle of several seconds). When the system controller receives the storage battery control signal, the system controller specifies the command value without delay and transmits a control signal for responding with the command value to the PCS. When receiving the command value from the system controller, the PCS causes the storage battery to execute a response with the command value without delay.

Note that the local terminal may have the terminal-side control device 21. In this case, the storage battery control signal transmitted from the central system is input to the local terminal via the GW.

The local terminal that has acquired the storage battery control signal specifies a command value based on the storage battery control signal. In addition, the local terminal specifies the response time based on the storage battery control signal. Then, the local terminal detects that the response time or the time (time or time) before the response time is reached based on the current time determined based on the second clock. The predetermined time here may be determined based on, for example, the time required from the transmission of the control signal from the local terminal to the response of the storage battery. When detecting that the response time or the time (time or time) before the response time is reached, the local terminal transmits a control signal to respond (output / charge) with the command value to the system controller. When receiving a command value from the local terminal, the system controller transmits a control signal to respond to the command value to the PCS without delay in response to the command value. When receiving the command value from the system controller, the PCS causes the storage battery to execute a response with the command value without delay. The system controller can recognize the command value of the storage battery control signal from the response time based on the storage battery control signal or the current time based on the second clock, a predetermined time before the response time. The system controller, the PCS, and the local terminal send a response at the previous command value to the storage battery until it detects that the next response time or a time (time or time) a predetermined time before the next response time is reached. It may be continued.

The storage battery control signal may not include the response time. In this case, the local terminal repeatedly receives the storage battery control signal at a predetermined cycle (eg, a cycle of several seconds). When the local terminal receives the storage battery control signal, the local terminal specifies a command value without delay and transmits a control signal for responding with the command value to the system controller. When the system controller receives a control signal including a command value from the local terminal, the system controller transmits a control signal to respond to the command value to the PCS without delay. When receiving the command value from the system controller, the PCS causes the storage battery to execute a response with the command value without delay.

As another modification, the PCS may have the terminal-side control device 21. In this case, the storage battery control signal transmitted from the central system is input to the PCS via the GW, the local terminal, and the system controller. The PCS may be input without going through one or both of the local terminal and the system controller.

The PCS that has acquired the storage battery control signal specifies a command value based on the storage battery control signal. Moreover, PCS specifies a response time based on the storage battery control signal. Then, the PCS detects that the time (time or time) that is a predetermined time before the response time or the response time is reached based on the current time grasped based on the second clock. The predetermined time here may be determined based on, for example, the time required from the start of control by the PCS to the response of the storage battery. When detecting that the response time or the time (time or time) before the response time is reached, the PCS causes the storage battery to execute a response with the command value without delay. The PCS can recognize the command value of the storage battery control signal from the response time based on the storage battery control signal or the current time based on the second clock, a predetermined time before the response time. The PCS may cause the storage battery to continue the response with the previous command value until it detects that the next response time or the time (time or time) before the next response time has come.

The storage battery control signal may not include the response time. In this case, the PCS repeatedly receives the storage battery control signal at a predetermined cycle (eg, a cycle of several seconds). When the PCS receives the storage battery control signal, the PCS specifies the command value without delay, and causes the storage battery to execute a response with the command value.

Incidentally, in the case of the application example described with reference to FIG. 27, the storage battery control signal is repeatedly transmitted and received at intervals of, for example, 5 seconds. In this case, it is preferable that there is no time difference of 5 seconds or more between the first clock used in the central control device 11 and the second clock used in the terminal-side control device 21. Therefore, the sampling period of the first time series data and the second time series data is preferably 5 seconds or less. Note that the sampling period can be longer than 5 seconds, but in this case, the accuracy of time deviation calculation is degraded.

According to the present embodiment described above, the same operational effects as those of the first to eleventh embodiments can be realized. In the present embodiment, the control system can be applied to power supply and demand adjustment.

When the control system is applied to power supply and demand adjustment, the time of the central system and the terminal system can be synchronized. By performing supply and demand adjustment in this state, it is possible to reduce the inconvenience that the terminal side system operates (output / charge) at a timing different from the timing intended by the central system.

Further, in a state in which the time of the central system and the terminal system are synchronized, the response time corresponding to each of the plurality of terminal control devices 21 (the operation corresponding to the control signal is performed from the transmission time of the storage battery control signal) By calculating (response time until time), the response time can be calculated with high accuracy. As described above, the response time can be determined based on the response time. For example, the maximum value Tmax in the response time T corresponding to each of the plurality of terminal-side control devices 21 is specified, and the time after the time Tlapsed from the current time determined based on the first clock is determined as the response time. can do. By determining the response time in this way, it is possible to reduce the occurrence of storage batteries that cannot respond to the response time. As a result, power supply and demand can be adjusted with high accuracy.

Also, in the power supply and demand adjustment, it is conceivable to pay incentives to the storage battery manager controlled for the adjustment. The incentive may be based on the controlled time, controlled power, controlled number of times, etc., but in addition to the storage battery manager who responded accurately (output / charge) at the specified response time. Thus, a method of paying a higher incentive than the administrator of the storage battery that responds (output / charges) at a timing different from the designated response time can be considered. Such a payment method is a motivation for the storage battery manager to adjust its own system so that it can respond according to the response time. As a result, the number of terminal-side systems that respond according to the response time increases, and the accuracy of power supply and demand adjustment improves.

In the case of this embodiment, since the time of the central system and the terminal system can be synchronized, it is possible to accurately specify whether or not the terminal system is responding at the timing as intended by the central system. . For this reason, the incentive payment by the said method can be performed accurately.
