Abstract
A problem to be solved is to optimize a storage schedule in which changes in power (W) stored in an energy storage apparatus with time are determined, and an output upper limit (W) of a renewable energy power supply. In order to solve the problem, the invention provides a power control apparatus () that stores in an energy storage apparatus an amount of power exceeding an output upper limit instruction value (W), which is determined by an electricity company in power (W) generated by a power generation apparatus, the power control apparatus () including a decision unit () that decides a storage schedule in which changes in the power (W) to be stored in the energy storage apparatus with time within a predetermined period of time are determined, on the basis of prediction data on changes in the power (W) generated by the power generation apparatus with time within the predetermined period of time and values of various types of power classified on the basis of the output upper limit instruction value (W) within the predetermined period of time.
