Original Abstract Submitted
A virtual machine allocation apparatus configured to perform allocation of virtual machines to a plurality of bases to which supply of electric power is performed by renewable energy power generation, includes: a prediction unit configured to acquire, for each base, a predicted value of an amount of power generation of renewable energy power generation and a predicted value of power consumption; and an allocation unit configured to repeatedly execute processing of selecting a base and a time period in which surplus power of the renewable energy power generation is maximized within a predetermined time length divided into a plurality of time periods at the plurality of bases, allocating a virtual machine selected from a control target virtual machine group including one or more movable virtual machines to the selected base and time period, and excluding the allocated virtual machine from the control target virtual machine group.
