<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To control power supply to loads according to the amount of generated power by a photovoltaic generator as well as the state of indoor loads. <P>SOLUTION: The amount of generated power by a solar cell 1 is detected with a power generation amount detecting part 5 in a solar inverter 3. A system controller 12 in a home automation system 10 controls the amount of power supplied to a lighting 14 which is an indoor load based on the amount of generated power. The amount of power supplied to the lighting 14 is reduced if the amount of generated power is within a prescribed range, while supplying of power to the lighting 14 is stopped if it is larger than the prescribed value, and the amount of supplied power is controlled to be maximum if it is less than the prescribed value. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI |
