the power distribution line.
7. The power-distribution-system management apparatus according to any one of claims 1 to 6, wherein the power-generation-amount estimating unit multiplies the amount of insolation by a coefficient for converting the amount of insolation into a power generation efficiency to thereby calculate the power generation efficiency, estimates a power generation amount of the solar power generation facility, which is an estimation target of a power generation amount, on the basis of the power generation efficiency, and, when determining on the basis of the amount of insolation in past under a same condition that the pyranometer, which has measured the amount of insolation, is deteriorated, changes the coefficient by which the amount of insolation corresponding to the pyranometer is multiplied.
8. The power-distribution-system management apparatus according to any one of claims 1 to 7, wherein the pyranometer is set in an electric pole.
9. The power-distribution-system management apparatus according to any one of claims 1 to 8, wherein the pyranometer is set in a relay tower of a mobile communication system.
10. A power-distribution-system management system comprising:
a power distribution line of a high voltage system; a plurality of solar power generation facilities connected to the power distribution line;
a smart meter network, which is a network used to
collect a measurement value of a smart meter that measures
electric energy;
a pyranometer to measure an amount of insolation; and a power-distribution-system management apparatus,
wherein
the power-distribution-system management apparatus
includes:
an acquiring unit to acquire the amount of
insolation via the smart meter network; and
a power-generation-amount estimating unit to
estimate, on the basis of the amount of insolation, a power
generation amount of each of the solar power generation
facilities.
11. A power-generation-amount estimating method comprising:
a first step of acquiring an amount of insolation, which is a measurement value obtained by measurement of a pyranometer, via a smart meter network, which is a network used to collect a measurement value of a smart meter that measures an amount of electric power; and
a second step of estimating, on the basis of the amount of insolation, a power generation amount of each of two or more solar power generation facilities connected to a power distribution line of a high voltage system.
