    Abstract: Provided is a battery estimation system comprising a processor and a storage device coupled to the processor. The storage device stores accelerated test data obtained by measuring change in degree of deterioration of a rechargeable battery cell at a predetermined temperature. The processor calculates a relationship between the temperature and the magnitude of an activation energy of the rechargeable battery cell on the basis of the accelerated test data, calculates a temperature as a maximum temperature on the basis of the relationship between the temperature and the magnitude of the activation energy of the rechargeable battery cell, the calculated temperature being a temperature at which the magnitude of the activation energy changes from decreasing to increasing in response to increase in the temperature, and determines a temperature equal to or less than the maximum temperature as a temperature to be used in an accelerated test.

    Abstract: A power generating system comprising: a plurality of power generating units coupled in parallel; a power collecting device for collecting electric power output from the plurality of power generating units; and wirings for coupling the plurality of power generating units and the power collecting device. A ratio of a conductor diameter to a predetermined length of each of the wirings is defined as a reference ratio. A value obtained by multiplying the reference ratio, a number of the wirings, and a loss generated by a specific wiring together is subtracted from a value obtained by multiplying a predetermined number of wirings for adjustment by a ratio of a conductor diameter to a length of the specific wiring. A total of the ratios of the conductor diameters to the lengths of the predetermined number of the wirings for adjustment is determined as a value less than the subtracted value.
