1. A power generation control system comprising:
a power generation device configured to generate electrical power by using an engine, based on a target power generation amount, and to supply the generated electrical power to a load;
a first determination unit configured to decide a target power feed amount, which represents an electrical power amount to be supplied to the load, based on a state of the load;
a first control section configured to control the power generation device by evaluating reliability of the target power generation amount, selecting a calculation method of the target power generation amount based on a result of the evaluation, and calculating the target power generation amount by using the target power feed amount decided by the first determination unit according to the calculation method;
a second determination unit configured to decide a target power feed amount, which represents an electrical power amount to be supplied to the load, based on a state of the load, independently of the first determination unit; and
a second control section configured to control the power generation device by calculating the target power generation amount by using the target power feed amount decided by the second determination unit, wherein
the first control section is configured to evaluate the reliability of the target power generation amount by receiving the target power generation amount calculated by the second control section from the second control section.
