A power generation apparatus and method includes an AC energization synchronous generator, a switching device which connects to a network disposed on a stator side of the AC energization synchronous generator, an energizing device which applies a variable frequency AC to a secondary winding of the AC energization synchronous generator, and a first voltage detection unit which detects a voltage of the switching device on the stator side. A rotational frequency of the AC energization synchronous generator is estimated or calculated based on a frequency of a stator side voltage of the switching device, while the switching device is open.
