Abstract
To improve accuracy in controlling battery output, a charge-storage element is connected in parallel to a plurality of power source units. Each power source unit includes a power source element, and power transmission and reception between the power source element and a neutral point N side can be controlled by controlling the ratio of time over which an open/close switch remains closed, determined according to which among the voltage at the power source element or a voltage across the power source unit is larger or smaller. As an output of each power source element can be controlled, accuracy in output control for the combination battery can be improved.
