There has been a drawback in that current command values need to be set for a current command unit of a power conversion device in accordance with efficiency, and thus the number of operation steps increases. In the power conversion device connected between a three-phase AC rotating machine and a DC power supply and configured to convert DC power into AC power, a DC voltage value, of the DC power supply, that is to be inputted to a current command unit of the power conversion device is corrected on the basis of an efficiency index, and a current command value to be outputted by the current command unit is changed on the basis of the corrected DC voltage value and a torque command value, whereby the efficiencies of the power conversion device and the three-phase AC rotating machine are controlled.
