Abstract: An energy storage apparatus includes an energy storage device and a management unit. The management unit: lowers an SOC of the energy storage device by discharge of the energy storage device; acquires current and voltage of the energy storage device while the SOC of the energy storage device is within a predetermined SOC range in a process of raising the SOC of the energy storage device by charge of the energy storage device; and calculates an internal resistance of the energy storage device based on the acquired current and voltage. The SOC range is a range in which a change in voltage of the energy storage device with respect to a change in SOC of the energy storage device is larger than a range in which a value of the SOC is larger than the SOC range.

Abstract: A storage battery monitoring device according to an aspect of the present invention includes: a plurality of monitoring units attached to a plurality of storage batteries connected in series and/or in parallel; and a management unit capable of wirelessly communicating with the plurality of monitoring units. The management unit sequentially selects identification information about the plurality of monitoring units stored previously, and transmits a connection request message including identification information about a selected monitoring unit to the plurality of monitoring units through wireless communication in order to establish communication with the selected monitoring unit. The management unit further updates identification information about another monitoring unit to identification information about one monitoring unit through the wireless communication when the another monitoring unit is replaced with the one monitoring unit.
