Fluctuations in the battery life of a plurality of storage batteries are reduced. A DC power supplying system includes power conditioners that supply generated power of power generators to a DC bus, converters that perform voltage conversion on a bus voltage and supply load power to load appliances, bidirectional converters that execute charging operations that charge storage batteries and discharging operations that discharge the storage batteries, and an energy management system that causes the converters to execute a charging operation when the generated power exceeds the load power and to execute a discharging operation when the generated power is below the load power. During a charging operation, the energy management system applies a first voltage-current characteristic that linearly increases the charging current in keeping with an increase in the bus voltage to each bidirectional DC/DC converter with a slope in keeping with the SOC of a storage battery.
