PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an apparatus and method for driving a plasma display panel which are capable of increasing the brightness of the plasma display panel and minimizing power consumption and the amount of heat generation without increasing the number of sustain pulses. SOLUTION: The plasma display apparatus comprises: a plasma display panel including a scan electrode and a sustain electrode; a scan electrode driver for applying a first sustain pulse to the scan electrode; a sustain electrode driver for alternately applying a second sustain pulse and the first sustain pulse to the sustain electrode ; and a peak pulse applying unit for causing a peak pulse to overlap the first sustain pulse and the second sustain pulse when the first sustain pulse and the second sustain pulse are alternately applied to the scan electrode and the sustain electrode.
