Abstract: A battery excavator 1 as an electric powered working machine includes a secondary battery 201, a battery management unit 202 that manages the secondary battery 201, and a controller 300 that controls a normal charge or a diagnostic charge for the secondary battery 201. The controller 300 includes: a diagnostic charge recommendation determination unit 301 that determines whether to recommend the diagnostic charge or not based on an operation history of the secondary battery output from the battery management unit 202; and a diagnostic charge execution determination unit 302 that determines whether to execute the diagnostic charge or not based on a state of the secondary battery output from the battery management unit 202, an estimated charge period necessary for the diagnostic charge, and a site work plan including a work start time, when the diagnostic charge is determined to be recommended.

Abstract: An evaluation device carries out evaluation for BESS that is a power storage system that includes a chargeable and dischargeable battery and provides a power stabilization service with respect to a power transmission network by using the battery. The evaluation device includes an information acquisition unit that acquires input information including at least specification information relating to specifications of the BESS, an estimation unit that estimates a life of the battery and a pecuniary profit in compensation for the service on the basis of the input information that is acquired by the information acquisition unit, and an optimization unit that determines a value of a control parameter, which is optimal for control of an operation of the BESS, on the basis of the life of the battery and the pecuniary profit which are estimated by the estimation unit.

Abstract: An electricity storage system includes: a plurality of rechargeable batteries connected in parallel; and a control unit that controls the rechargeable batteries. The control unit detects a deactivation target rechargeable battery of which charge or discharge need to be deactivated, of the rechargeable batteries, electrically separates and deactivates the deactivation target rechargeable battery from a load in a case where a charging rate of the deactivation target rechargeable battery is lower than a predetermined charging rate, and performs control such that a temperature of the deactivated rechargeable battery is within a predetermined temperature range. In this manner, it is possible to disperse ions inside a battery such that it is possible to recover performance of the battery.
