Abstract

In a solar energy generator including a solar battery a microcomputer for controlling at least a boosting circuit and an inverter circuit so that AC power suitably usable as the AC power of a commercial power supply system can be supplied to the commercial power supply system, the power to be supplied to the various kinds of equipment of the solar energy generator is selectively supplied from one of the solar battery and the commercial power supply system. The microcomputer stores the operational status data of the solar energy generator into an external storage device, and these data can be used for maintenance or trouble shooting of the solar energy generator.
