Abstract: A battery monitoring device is applied to an assembled battery having a plurality of battery cells connected in series, the battery cells including a first battery cell and a second battery cell. The battery monitoring device includes: an acquisition unit configured to acquire, during charging or discharging of the battery cells, a battery parameter of each of the first and second battery cells, the battery parameter of each of the first and second battery cells being a terminal voltage across the corresponding one of the first and second battery cells or an impedance of the corresponding one of the first and second battery cells; and a state calculation unit configured to calculate a difference between the acquired battery parameter of the first battery cell and the acquired battery parameter of the second battery cell, and calculate a battery state of the battery cells based on the calculated difference.

Abstract: In a power conversion system, a power converter includes a power conversion circuit connected to a direct current (DC) source via a DC distribution line and converts and supplies received DC power to a load, and a power conversion control unit. A power stabilizing device is disposed between the DC distribution line and the power converter and stabilizes a DC voltage applied from the DC power source. A control power source of the power stabilizing device performs current control of the current transformer to suppress DC magnetization caused by a DC current component of the primary current while compensating for a varying component of the DC voltage. The control power source acquires current information or voltage information calculated from control information used by the power conversion control unit for control operations related to energization of the load and uses it as control information for the power stabilizing device.

Abstract: An equipment characteristics model learning device includes an acquisition unit and a model coefficient deriving unit. The acquisition unit is configured to acquire actual values of variables which are used to express characteristics of equipment in a characteristics model indicating the characteristics. The model coefficient deriving unit is configured to derive a value of a coefficient of a simple characteristic model using the acquired actual values, wherein the simple characteristic model corresponds to a value range of a change factor variable which is a variable serving as a change factor for the characteristics among the variables of the characteristic model and indicates the characteristics using variables obtained by lowering the number of dimensions of the characteristic model.
