Abstract:
A charging control system includes a flattened charging speed calculation unit that calculates a flattened charge speed for fully charging EVs at a constant speed according to permitted charging time for the EVs and the amount of charging required by the EVs; a charging speed calculation unit that calculates a charging speed for the EVs by multiplying the flattened charging speed by a request demand ratio function based on change over time in electric power demand requested from the electric power supply side; and a control unit that controls the charging of the EVs on the basis of the charging speed calculated by the charging speed calculation unit.
Abstract:
The HEMS of each consumer transmits the amount of surplus electricity that is expected by to be generated by a PV system, and/or the amount of electric power that is needed by a controllable load, in a predetermined time slot on a predetermined date, to a server apparatus. The server apparatus, based on the notified amount of surplus electricity and the amount of electric power that is needed by the controllable load, combines a first consumer and a second consumer so that the amount of electric power needed by the controllable load will be equal to or greater than the amount of surplus electricity. Then, under the control the HEMS of the second consumer, the surplus electricity that is generated by the first consumer is consumed by each controllable load.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a position detection apparatus including: a signal line along which a bit array including a plurality of bits used for expressing information on one of absolute positions in a direction determined in advance is created repeatedly in the direction determined in advance; and an information reading-out section which is capable of making a movement relative to the signal line in the direction determined in advance in accordance with a driving operation carried out by driving means determined in advance and is used for reading out the information expressed by the bits from the signal line.
Abstract:
An electric power grid control system is provided with: distributed generators connected to an electric power grid; and voltage measurement units that measure voltage at connection points of the distributed generators to the electric power grid. When voltage at a connection point to the electric power grid deviates from a predetermined acceptable range, a centralized control device equally allocates a voltage adjustment amount for returning the voltage to the acceptable range to all distributed generators belonging to a predetermined group that was set in advance. Distribution processing devices cause the distributed generators to adjust voltage at the connection points in accordance with the voltage adjustment amount allocated from the centralized control device.
Abstract:
A process for rectifying N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone by crystallization is described. The process is characterized in that the crystallization is performed for a mother liquid having crude N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone in the presence of a stabilizer. In the process for rectifying N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone by crystallization, the yield of N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone is improved.
Abstract:
A flexible double-sided copper-clad printed-circuit base board is provided with a core resin layer of a composite material essentially composed of a specific rigid-structured polyimide and a specific flexible-structured crosslinked polyimide silicone in a state of being inseparable from each other, wherein the core resin layer is formed directly between two copper foils. This base board is produced by coating a surface of a copper foil with a polyamic acid solution mixture of a specific polyamic acid and a specific polyamic acid - alkylsilane, heat-treating the resulting coated copper foil, and contact-bonding another copper foil to the resulting copper-foil/polyimide laminate.

Abstract:
A battery control system, which controls operation of a plurality of batteries connected to an electric power system, comprises: detecting means that detects a delay period of each of the batteries which represents a period that has elapsed after the battery control system supplies the battery with an execution command for charging or discharging the battery until the battery operates according to the execution command; measuring means that measures a frequency rate-of-change of electric power of the electric power system; selecting means that selects adjustment batteries for adjusting the electric power of the electric power system from the batteries based on the frequency rate-of-change and the delay period of each of the batteries; and command means for supplying the execution command to the adjustment batteries.
