ABSTRACT:
A cogeneration system that is operated in system connection is disconnected from the system and operated independently at a power failure of the system. A power generator1driven by an engine E is connected to a system9. A water-cooling device13recovers exhaust heat of the engine E. When an operating switch20is switched, to its independent operation mode for an independent operation apart from the system9, the upper limit of the target rotation speed Ntgt of an electronic governor16is increased over that at system connection operation, thereby the engine speed can be increased, and the maximum output point of the power generator1is increased for operation. When a power failure of the system9is detected by a power failure detecting unit21, an operation mode judging unit19outputs a judgment result similar to that at the moment when the independent operation mode is instructed and increases the upper limit of the target engine speed Ntgt, and turns off a connection switch7to disconnect the system connection.
