There is provided air-conditioning control in a low power operation so as not to exceed a target demand power amount in a predetermined measurement period while preventing deterioration of comfortableness of a living space. There include a reducible-power-amount estimation unit configured to calculate, for each group, a reducible power amount by making indoor units perform, for each group, a shut-off operation for a minimum shut-off time in the first half of a demand time limit, and a reduced-power-amount determination unit configured to distribute, when a power consumption amount predicted by a power consumption amount prediction unit exceeds a target demand power amount after the first half of the demand time limit passes, the exceeding power amount to each zone, evenly distribute, in each zone, the distributed power amount to each group, and calculate, based on the reducible power amount of each group, a shut-off time of each group when each group performs the shut-off operation to reduce the distributed power amount.
