First Claim
1. A battery control system that communicates by way of a communication network with a plurality of batteries that are connected to an electric power system, comprising:
- a communication characteristics detection unit that, for each of said plurality of batteries, detects characteristics of communication paths between said batteries and said battery control system within said communication network;
a selection unit which selects, from among said plurality of batteries, each battery that has characteristics of communication paths within a predetermined communication characteristics range, as a regulating battery that is to be used for regulating electric power of said electric power system; and
a control unit that supplies operation instructions that instructs the regulating batteries that were selected in said selection unit to perform a charging or discharging operation, wherein;
said selection unit selects said regulating battery based on communication delay times of said communication paths.
