A method and a temperature adjustment apparatus of adjusting an indoor temperature includes: predicting an temperature change pattern of a first rate time zone that is reached after an operation of a Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system, based on an indoor temperature change pattern extracted from information stored; predicting a power consumption of the HVAC system based on the predicted temperature change pattern; and scheduling a discharging power quantity of an Energy Storage System (ESS) battery based on the predicted power consumption of the HVAC system in the first rate time zone, which is reached after the operation. The temperature adjustment method and the apparatus may schedule a discharging power quantity of the ESS battery in consideration of power consumption predicted by the temperature adjustment apparatus, external environmental factors, and characteristics of the ESS battery, thereby optimizing the rate reduction effect.The present disclosure relates to a sensor network, Machine Type Communication (MTC), Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication, and technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the above technologies, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services.
