A power conversion apparatus, power conversion method, and a power conversion system can reduce the occurrence of unnecessary power loss. The power conversion apparatus converts direct current (DC) power supplied by a solar cell into alternating current (AC) power. The power conversion apparatus includes a DC filter unit, a memory, and a controller. The DC filter unit includes a noise filter that reduces noise in the DC power supplied by the solar cell and a switch that connects an input terminal and an output terminal of the noise filter. The controller controls the switch in accordance with output power of the DC filter unit.
