Abstract
When the sum of a first state of charge of a first battery stack and a second state of charge of a second battery stack is large, a higher state of charge is selected as a priority state of charge. When the sum of first state of charge of the first battery stack and the second state of charge of the second battery stack is small, a lower state of charge is selected as the priority state of charge. A first coefficient and a second coefficient are set in accordance with the priority state of charge. The second coefficient is set so as to be lower than the first coefficient. The product of the first coefficient and the priority state of charge is added to the product of the second coefficient and the other state of charge, to thereby calculate a state of charge of a power storage system.
