The present technology relates to a reception apparatus and method by which the load on an electric power system can be decreased at the time of information delivery, to an information delivery apparatus and method, and to an information delivery system. An electric power supply information notification unit notifies, on the basis of content delivery information notified from an information delivery apparatus that delivers content by utilizing a delivery frequency band in a delivery time band, a monitoring control apparatus of electric power supply information including an electric power supply amount and an electric power supply time at the time of receiving the content, the monitoring control apparatus monitoring and controlling electric power supply by an electric power system. A control unit, when electric power supply in the delivery time band is ensured by evaluation by the monitoring control apparatus of the feasibility of electric power supply on the basis of the electric power supply information, controls the content in a reception-enabled state on the basis of the notified delivery information. A content reception unit receives the content delivered from the information delivery apparatus. The present technology can be applied to a content delivery system for delivering content, for example. |
