Abstract

The method of controlling a battery storing electric power generated by a power generator generating electric power using renewable energy comprises detecting an amount of electric power generated by the power generator at a first time and a second time that is prior to the first time; computing a rate of increase or decrease of the amount of electric power between the first time and the second time; computing a target output value for the electric power to be supplied to an electric power transmission system based on the rate, and supplying to the electric power transmission system electric power corresponding to the target output value from at least one of the power generator and the battery.
