The present invention relates to an electricity management apparatus and an electricity management method. The electricity management apparatus of the present invention includes: a communication unit for receiving electricity information through a smart grid electricity information network, or transmitting electricity management information on an electronic device connected to a network through an internal network; a reference value setting unit for setting a total section, and setting a maximum allowable electricity reference value and an inspection electricity reference value corresponding to the set total section; and a controller for performing controlling to determine a management mode for each electronic device connected to the internal network, in consideration of an electricity proportional value comparing a current accumulated used electricity value to the set maximum allowable electricity reference value and a section proportional value comparing a current time point of a specific section, when a current inspection used electricity value exceeds the set inspection electricity reference value, and to transmit the electricity management information corresponding to the determined management mode. According to the diverse exemplary embodiments proposed in the description of the present invention, an efficient electricity management may be performed with respect to diverse electronic devices. Additionally, an electricity management mode that is most adequate to the current time point may be decided and applied. Also, according to the diverse exemplary embodiments proposed in the description of the present invention, electricity management may be performed within a range not exceeding an initially determined maximum allowable reference value. For example, when a user simply sets up an allowable maximum electricity charge fee, the electricity management of the internal electronic devices may be performed to the extent where the set up maximum allowable electricity charge fee does not exceeded later on. |
