A charging control device (400) individually controls electric charges of electric storage devices mounted in vehicles respectively from an external power source. A control ECU (408) performs control for detecting the storage states of the electric storage devices when the vehicles and the external power source are connected, detecting expected power consumptions of the vehicles, calculating necessary charging power amounts of the vehicles from the detected storage states and expected power consumptions, detecting usage start times of the vehicles, determining a charging schedule of charging times and charging power amounts of the vehicles from the necessary charging amounts and the usage start times, and charging the electric storage devices mounted in the vehicles according to the charging schedule. A charging control device and a charging control method enable an increase in the possibility that a desired vehicle can be used when desired and charging within a contract demand.
