Abstract
An energy estimation apparatus includes a probability setting unit, a vehicle speed pattern estimation unit, a traveling load estimation unit, and an energy estimation unit. The probability setting unit sets a vehicle speed probability that is a probability of a vehicle reaching a certain vehicle speed on a traveling route that is specified by traveling route information. The vehicle speed pattern estimation unit estimates a vehicle speed variation pattern of the vehicle on the traveling route based on the traveling route information and the vehicle speed probability. The traveling load estimation unit estimates traveling load characteristics of the vehicle on the traveling route. The energy estimation unit estimates energy required for traveling of the vehicle using the traveling load characteristics and the vehicle speed variation pattern.
