Field: Electrical machinery, apparatus, energy (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H  G  Y | IPC G  H

Claim 4:
5. A power management method, comprising:
selecting, from a plurality of facilities having storage battery apparatuses, two or more first facilities; and
after selecting the two or more first facilities, applying first processing to suppress discharge of the storage battery apparatuses using a suppression ratio of discharge power amount, the suppression ratio being the same among the storage battery apparatuses of the two or more first facilities,
wherein
by the suppressing, a non-zero discharge power amount of the storage battery apparatuses is suppressed,
the method further comprises
selecting, from the plurality of facilities, a second facility in which a remaining storage amount of the storage battery apparatus is equal to or less than a predetermined threshold before an expiration timing of a control target period, and
applying, to the second facility, second processing to shift a predetermined timing to a later timing on a time axis, the predetermined timing being a timing when the remaining storage amount of the storage battery apparatus is equal to or less than the predetermined threshold before the expiration timing of the control target period,

the two or more first facilities to which the first processing is applied are selected in response to a total reducible capacity of the second facility not reaching a targeted reduction capacity even when the second processing is applied to the second facility, and
facilities other than the second facility are selected as the first facilities.
