POWER STORAGE SOURCE MANAGEMENT APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME

A management apparatus, includes a control unit for acquiring operational characteristics information of a power storage source from a sensor unit and determining an operating power limit of the power storage source, determining a charge power or discharge power of the power storage source using the operational characteristics information during operation of the power storage source, stopping the operation of the power storage source in response to the charge/discharge power being larger than a preset unstable power range of a Power Conversion System (PCS) and being larger than the operating power limit by a first threshold, and stopping the operation of the power storage source in response the charge/discharge power being within the preset unstable power range of the PCS and being larger than the operating power limit by a second threshold being larger than the first threshold.
