Abstract
An estimated value or a predicted value of an output of photovoltaic generation is easily and properly determined. A learning processor constructs an output calculating model based on a measured value of an output of photovoltaic generation, sunshine hours, and a solar altitude in a learning period. The output calculating model calculates the output of the photovoltaic generation based on the sunshine hours and the solar altitude. An output calculator calculates an estimated value of the output of the photovoltaic generation in an estimation period and a predicted value of the output of the photovoltaic generation in a prediction period based on a measured value of the sunshine hours in the estimation period and the solar altitude or a predicted value of the sunshine hours in the prediction period and the solar altitude. Additionally, the features may be applied to a photovoltaic power system.
