摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an operation planning device capable of lowering operation cost and efficiently utilizing energy. SOLUTION: A system state measuring part 12 of the operation planning device measures actual demand data of energy and temporarily stores the data in an actual-demand-data storing part 13 so as to control an energy supply system. A predicted demand pattern generation part 16 makes an actual demand pattern data base 17 from the actual demand data, and further predicts a demand pattern. A similar demand-pattern selection part 18 compares a standard demand pattern stored in a standard-demand pattern data base 19 with a predicted demand pattern, and as a result of the comparison, an operation plan selection part 20 chooses an optimal operation pattern corresponding to a standard demand pattern that is most similar thereto from an optimal operation pattern data base 21. An operation control part 5 controls the energy supply system by utilizing the selected operation pattern.
