Abstract
An energy control device adjusts an amount of energy of a plurality of pieces of equipment placed at a property. The energy control device includes a receiving unit, a basic adjustable amount calculation unit, and a control instruction generation unit. The receiving unit receives an energy suppression request including information related to a requested suppressed amount of energy at the property. The calculation unit calculates, upon receipt of the energy suppression request, a basic adjustable amount of energy for each piece of equipment independently of the requested suppressed amount based on an operating status of the piece of equipment when the energy suppression request is received. The generation unit instructs the equipment to perform energy amount adjustment control so that a total of suppressed amounts of energy at the property becomes equal to the requested suppressed amount based on the basic adjustable amount of energy for each piece of equipment.
