Patent ID: 8896151

Claim:
An electric power system comprising: an uninterruptible power supply including an AC switch provided between a commercial power supply and an output part, a secondary battery, and an inverter provided between the AC switch and secondary battery; an important load connected to the output part; a distributed power supply connected to the output part; total load power consumption detection means for detecting the power consumption of all loads including the important load; charge/discharge power detection means for detecting charge/discharge power of the secondary battery; output power detection means for detecting the output power of the distributed power supply; important load power consumption detection means for detecting the power consumption of the important load; and a controller that inputs thereto detection values from the total load power consumption detection means, charge/discharge power detection means, output power detection means, and important load power consumption detection means and outputs a control command value for controlling the secondary battery, wherein the controller adds the detection values from the total load power consumption detection means and the charge/discharge power detection means, passes the added detection values into a band-pass filter outputting a filtered signal, and inputs the filtered signal into a limiter limiting the inputted signal by maximum and minimum limit values for power flow in the AC switch, and wherein the controller determines the control command value for operating the secondary battery based on the equation: (command value W ACSWref )−(the detection value of the output power detection means)+(the detection value of the important load power consumption detection means), the command value W ACSWref being the output from the limiter.
