Abstract
A power converter includes a plurality of converters which are connected in parallel to a DC power supply in which an operating point is changed in accordance with an output current or an output voltage. The plurality of converters include maximum power point tracking units for performing maximum power point tracking calculations of the DC power supply. Results of the maximum power point tracking calculations of the plurality of converters are unified between the plurality of converters and the plurality of converters are controlled based on the unified calculation result.
