A DC feeder voltage computing device includes a model information storing unit, a run history information storing unit, and a voltage setting value computing unit. The model information storing unit stores model information. The run history information storing unit stores, on a per train basis, run history information that indicates locations and power situations of a plurality of trains that run in a DC-electrified section on or before a preceding day. The voltage setting value computing unit computes, on the basis of the model information and the run history information, a voltage setting value for controlling a substation voltage to cause an amount of power consumption in the DC-electrified section to satisfy a preset condition.

DC feeder voltage computing device, DC feeder voltage control system, and DC feeder voltage computation method

A DC-feeding-voltage calculating apparatus includes storage that stores train model information including information for controlling a regenerative power reducing amount in a train in an electrified section; feeding network model information including position information on a substation; and substation model information including control information on a substation voltage. On the basis of: the stored information; a voltage value, current values of feeders by train direction, the voltage and current values being measured in the substation; and first train information on a train including a wireless communication apparatus, an estimator estimates second train information on a train not including a wireless communication apparatus and outputs train operation information. A calculator, on the basis of the stored information and the train operation information, calculates a substation voltage setting value for controlling the substation voltage such that regenerative power is increased in a regenerative car in the electrified section.
