<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a energy control device capable of fulfilling requests of an energy management company. <P>SOLUTION: Low-order controllers (30, 30) are installed in articles (A, B) respectively, and suppress the energy amount of a plurality of air conditioners (40, 40, ...). Each of the low-order controllers (30, 30) comprises: a periodic suppressible amount determination part for determining a total periodic suppressible amount of energy which is a total suppressible amount of energy in a first operation condition; a reception part for receiving a suppression request including a requested restricted amount of energy from a host controller 10; and a request time suppressible amount prediction part for predicting and determining a total request time suppressible amount which is a total suppressible amount of energy of the plurality of air conditioners (40, 40, ...) in a second operation condition when the reception part receives the suppression request. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
