Abstract

To provide an energy evaluation support system and the like which can more efficiently and precisely compute electric power consumption for each of predetermined processing units such as production steps and the like, the energy evaluation support system includes a receiving section which receives a factory design request including a production condition instruction indicating a production condition from the user, a storage section which stores a production device database containing data relating to production devices and a requisite-power supply device database containing data relating to requisite-power supply devices, a processing section which computes energy consumption for each of the production devices and the requisite-power supply devices and for each requisite power type, based on the production device database and requisite-power supply device database according to the factory design request from the user, and an output section which presents the energy consumption computed by the processing section to the user in a predetermined form.
