Abstract:
A power conditioning system that includes a fuel cell to be connected to a load, a fuel cell converter connected between the fuel cell and the load, the fuel cell converter converting an output voltage of the fuel cell at a predetermined required voltage ratio, a battery connected in parallel with the fuel cell with respect to the load, the battery serving as a power supply source different from the fuel cell, a battery converter connected between the battery and the load, the battery converter converting an output voltage of the battery at a predetermined required voltage ratio, a voltage adjusting unit configured to adjust an output voltage of the battery converter to a predetermined voltage to generate a DC link voltage for synchronizing an output voltage of the fuel cell converter and the output voltage of the battery converter, and a ripple suppressing unit configured to cause the battery converter to suppress a ripple component of the DC link voltage in a situation where the DC link voltage is higher than the output voltage of the battery.

Claim (Index 11):
A control method for a power conditioning system with:\n a fuel cell to be connected to a load; a fuel cell converter connected between the fuel cell and the load, the fuel cell converter converting an output voltage of the fuel cell at a predetermined required voltage ratio; a battery connected in parallel with the fuel cell with respect to the load, the battery serving as a power supply source different from the fuel cell; a battery converter connected between the battery and the load, the battery converter converting an output voltage of the battery at a predetermined required voltage ratio; a voltage adjusting unit configured to adjust an output voltage of the battery converter to a predetermined voltage to generate a DC link voltage for synchronizing an output voltage of the fuel cell converter and the output voltage of the battery converter; and auxiliary machines configured to operate the fuel cell, the control method comprising: detecting a magnitude of a passing current through the battery converter; determining whether or not the detected magnitude of the passing current through the battery converter is below a predetermined value; and increasing or decreasing at least one of power consumed by the auxiliary machines and power generated by the fuel cell when the magnitude of the passing current through the battery converter is determined to be below the predetermined value.
