Abstract

An operation control apparatus includes a criterion calculator that obtains an operation criterion for the power converter, based on the voltage detected by the above voltage detector on the side of the alternating-current power system, a direct-current voltage detector that detects a direct-current output voltage of the solar battery, and an operation determination device that compares the direct-current output voltage detected by the direct-current voltage detector with the operation criterion obtained by the criterion calculator, and supplies the power converter with an operation command if the direct-current output voltage is greater than the operation criterion.
