Abstract

Remaining power generation capability of power generation apparatuses is estimated to a high degree of accuracy. A power conversion apparatus () includes input interfaces () that input generated power from each of multiple power generation apparatuses () of the same type and a controller () that performs MPPT control on a priority basis on at least one input interface among the input interfaces and acquires the remaining power generation capability of the power generation apparatuses () connected to the other input interfaces () by calculation using the generated current of the power generation apparatus () connected to the at least one input interface.
