SWITCHING CIRCUIT, CONTROL APPARATUS, AND POWER GENERATING SYSTEM

A switching circuit capable of efficiently practically using power generated in a plurality of photovoltaic power generation modules is provided. The switching circuit (22) is employed for a power generation system (1) capable of switching a connection state between the plurality of power generation modules (21), for switching a first connection state where at least a part of the plurality of power generation modules are connected in series with each other, and a second connection state where at least a part of the plurality of power generation modules are connected in parallel with each other, or, the generated power output portion is connected to a storage portion (3) so that generated power is supplied from one of the power generation module to the storage portion.
