Abstract

A control method of the present invention is a control method for distributed power sources which systematically controls a plurality of distributed power sources having different responsive capabilities for a load disturbance. The distributed power sources include an electricity storage device. The control method of the present invention includes: obtaining a component to be compensated for using a power source having a responsive capability equal to or lower than that of the electricity storage device based on a difference value between a remaining capacity of the electricity storage device and a target remaining capacity; and compensating for the component to be compensated for using the power source having a responsive capability equal to or lower than that of the electricity storage device.
