An electro-optical device includes: a pixel circuit that includes a first transistor and an electro-optical element to which a current is supplied from the first transistor, the pixel circuit being driven in a frame period composed of a display period and a blanking period; a driving circuit that controls the pixel circuit such that the pixel circuit executes a compensation operation that compensates the property of the first transistor in the display period and such that the pixel circuit does not execute the compensation operation in the blanking period; and a dummy circuit that consumes electric power in the blanking period such that the total power consumption in the pixel circuit and the dummy circuit in the display period and the total power consumption in the pixel circuit and the dummy circuit in the blanking period approach each other.
