1. A control device for an electric system, comprising:
- a first converter for varying a voltage;
a second converter connected in parallel to said first converter for varying a voltage;
a first power storage mechanism connected to said first converter for storing electric power;
a second power storage mechanism connected to said second converter for storing electric power;
a charger connected to said first power storage mechanism to supply electric power; and
an operation unit, whereinsaid operation unit selects a charging mode for said first power storage mechanism, selects a charging mode for said second power storage mechanism, and controls said charger, said first converter and said second converter to charge at least any one of said first power storage mechanism and said second power storage mechanism in the selected mode.
