Abstract

An electronic apparatus capable of controlling power usage without interfering with execution of processes. When the electronic apparatus is requested to execute a process, it is determined whether or not power consumption while the requested process is executed is greater than a predetermined amount of power. When it is determined that the power consumption is greater than the predetermined amount of power, power required to execute the requested process is borrowed from another electronic apparatus. When the power required to execute the requested process is borrowed, the requested process is executed.
