An example of a control signal for controlling the display operation of the display device 5 is switched from a plurality of display modes that can be displayed on the display device 5 to an arbitrary display mode, or different from an arbitrary display mode among the plurality of display modes. This is a signal for switching to the display mode. The plurality of display modes that can be displayed on the display device 5 may include a non-display mode that does not display a part or all of the result of signal processing or arithmetic processing.

  The hardware configuration of the management device 6 is not particularly limited as long as it can perform the above functions. The management device 6 is configured to include at least an input device, a communication device, a storage device, an arithmetic device, and a control device, or at least an input device, a communication device, a storage device, an arithmetic logic device, and an information path, like the server 3. It may be provided with an output device such as a display means (monitor or display) and a printer.

  Among the public or passersby 7 in the place where the display device 5 installed in the vicinity V of the facility F enters the field of view, the resident 710 in the region R is a membership system in which at least a part is operated by the server 3 There are no enrollees. On the other hand, at least a part of the residents 720 outside the region R may be members of the membership system, but all of them need not be members.

<B> Membership system
FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram of the process of the membership system, in particular, accessing the homepage of the membership system operated in the server 3 through communication between the server 3 and the computer terminal 4 that can communicate with the server 3 via the communication network 2. A prospective member (representative or representative if it is an individual or an organization) X applies for membership, the application is approved and becomes member X, and then enters member's account Ax as a member X from the member-only web page. Modeling a series of steps of inputting information (values and a set thereof) on efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from a dedicated GUI displayed on the display means of the computer terminal 4 and updating information related to own contribution. FIG.

  Based on FIG. 2, first, membership to a membership system by an arbitrary applicant X and related matters will be described. That is, the prospective member X uses the PC terminal 4 to access the homepage of the membership system operated on the server 3 via the communication network 2 (S1, S2), and recruits new members on the homepage. If so, the application for membership can be made by performing a predetermined procedure on the new membership application page in the homepage (S3). The predetermined procedure is, for example, entering the specific information of the applicant X (name / name, address / address, telephone number, e-mail address, etc.) of the applicant X in the predetermined fields on the new application page, It means sending to the server 3.

  When the membership system (actually the server 3 that operates the membership system) accepts the membership application with the unique information of the prospective member (that is, the applicant for membership) X, it performs a process equivalent to the examination based on the unique information. If it is determined that admission is not permitted (S4) and it is determined that admission is not permitted, information indicating that admission is not permitted is transmitted to the PC terminal 4 via the communication network 2, and if admission is permitted, application for admission is performed. Open a member account Ax for the person X (specifically, for example, secure a member account Ax corresponding area in the database) and secure the use of the member account Ax for the membership applicant X The required member identification information ID and password PW are issued, and these pieces of information are transmitted to the PC terminal 4 via the communication network 2 (S5).

  In this way, the enrollment procedure by the enrollment applicant X is completed, and the enrollment applicant X acquires the ID and PW, and thereafter uses the member account Ax securely as the member X on the member-only web page provided by the server 3. (S6).

  Next, based on FIG. 2, the update of contribution related information performed by an arbitrary member X using the member account Ax and matters related thereto will be described. That is, the member X accesses the homepage of the membership system and further the member-dedicated webpage (T1, T2). Next, the member X can apply for entry into his / her member account Ax by performing a predetermined procedure on the member-dedicated web page (T3). The predetermined procedure means transmitting at least the member identification information ID and the password PW acquired at the time of joining the membership system to the server 3 via the communication network 2.

When the membership system (actually the server 3 that operates the membership system) accepts the room X application with the ID and PW of the member X, the process equivalent to the examination (member registration inquiry process) is performed based on the ID and PW. To determine whether or not to enter the room (T4). When judging that entry is not permitted, information indicating that entry is not permitted is transmitted to the PC terminal 4 via the communication network 2 and entry is permitted.
The member account Ax for the member X is selectively operated, and at least a part of the member correspondence information Ix of the member X is read from the database, and at least the read member correspondence information Ix is read from the member X. A part is transmitted to the PC terminal 4 via the communication network 2 together with information related to the dedicated GUI (T5). The member X completes entry into the room (T6).

  Member X who entered his / her account Ax has information on his / her efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, which is the basis for calculating Member X's contribution related information (activity performance basic information) Then, by inputting, selecting, etc. on the dedicated GUI displayed on the display means of the PC terminal 4, it is finally transmitted to the server 3 via the communication network 2 (T7).

  Activity result basic information is information that can be arbitrarily set depending on the design of the membership system. Whether the member can input or select the information can be arbitrarily determined depending on the design of the dedicated GUI. Can be set. For example, information that has been scored or segmented in response to various initiatives (actions, activities, etc.) that are effective in reducing greenhouse gas emissions can be set as basic information on activity results. Provide a field on the GUI where members X can enter points and categories according to various efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and buttons that allow members X to select such points and categories Can do. Whether member X's activity results basic information is entered or selected by self-declaration of member X, with prior approval of others, or even by self-declaration, post-approval by the administrator of the membership system (post-deletion deletion or correction Whether it will be included) depends on the design of the membership system.

  When the membership system (actually the server 3 that operates the membership system) receives the activity result basic information from the PC terminal 4, in order to obtain contribution related information of the member X based on the activity result basic information. Necessary calculations are performed and updated (T8). Here, a typical example of “necessary calculation” is that “correspondence relation between activity result basic information or its classification and score is defined in advance, and all received activity result information is scored in light of the correspondence relation. , And the numerical value obtained by the integration is used as the contribution degree related information ”.

  The membership system is an incentive corresponding to the contribution to the greenhouse gas reduction by the member X (or based on the contribution related information of the member X) or as a part of the member related information Ix or the contribution related information of the member X. You may perform the calculation of the increment.

  The membership system transmits at least a part of the member correspondence information Ix of the member X (including the updated contribution related information of the member X) to the PC terminal 4 via the communication network 2. The member X can confirm the information received from the server 3 via the communication network 2 on the dedicated GUI by the display means of the PC terminal 4 (T9).

  The member X repeatedly transmits the basic activity results basic information to the server 3 as necessary, receives an update of his / her own contribution related information, then requests the server 3 to leave the account Ax and leaves the server. (T10). The membership system receiving the application for leaving the member X from the PC terminal 4 via the communication network 2 writes the member correspondence information Ix of member X (including the updated contribution related information of member X) to the database. Save (T11).

  Through the above flow process, the membership system accumulates the member correspondence information of all the members in a state where they can be retrieved and read out from the database.

By repeating the process from n1 to n2, member X can use the membership system to accumulate contribution-related information corresponding to their own greenhouse gas reduction efforts. In particular, it is possible to acquire an incentive required by the member X corresponding to the accumulated contribution related information and enjoy the benefit of the acquisition (T13). In this case, the mechanism for issuing the incentive for the member X can be arbitrarily set depending on the design of the membership system. For example, it becomes a part of the function of the server 3 (in short, the server 3 has a function of issuing the incentive). Alternatively, a server other than the server 3 may issue the incentive, or based on a certificate of contribution related information issued to the member X by the operator of the membership system. A third party may issue the incentive.

  As described above, the member X operates under a membership system operated so as to give the member X an incentive corresponding to the greenhouse gas emission reduction efforts by repeating the steps from n1 to n3. So, it will be driven to work actively by reducing greenhouse gases.

<C> Visualization display method Next, based on FIGS. 3 to 6, the contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by the green power generation apparatus and the contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by the members' efforts of the above membership system The display of at least two of the contributions in the display device and the related matters will be described.

[Case 1] When the introduction of a green power generation device is handled as one of the efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by members of the membership system and linked to visualize and display the effect of reducing greenhouse gas emissions. FIG. 10 is a process explanatory diagram of the visualization display method according to the second embodiment of the present invention. The flow of visualization display of the greenhouse gas emission reduction effect according to Case 1 will be described with reference to FIG. In this figure, the process indicated by T is substantially the same as that shown in FIG.

  First, the member X uses the PC terminal 4 to access the member-dedicated web page operated by the server 3 via the communication network 2 (T1, T2), enters the dedicated account Ax, and then obtains the activity record basic information. When transmitted (T7), the server 3 calculates and updates the contribution related information of the member X based on the activity result basic information (T8).

  Here, since the introduction of green power generation equipment will contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, the introduction (installation, operation, etc.) of green power generation equipment by member X is not limited to efforts by member X to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Don't be. Therefore, the fact that the member X introduces (installs, operates, etc.) the green power generation device can be added to the member X's activity performance basic information.

  More specifically, as one aspect of efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, when member X introduces (installs, operates, etc.) green power generation device Y in facility F, member X is Information about Y (address of facility F, ability / scale of device Y to reduce greenhouse gas emissions) as basic information on activity results from PC terminal 3 to server 3 via communication network 2 (T7 (A) Or via the management device 6 to the server 3 (in the route (B) of T7). When the server 3 receives the information about the green power generation device Y from the PC terminal 4 or the management device 6, the server 3 performs a calculation necessary for obtaining the contribution related information of the member X based on the information and other activity result basic information. And update it (T8).

  Then, the member correspondence information of member X is accumulated in the database (T11), and when the member correspondence information of all members is finally accumulated in the database (T12), the greenhouse gas generated by the green power generator provided in the facility F At least two contributions are accumulated in the database: contributions to emission reductions and contributions to member X's other efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

  As already mentioned, member X's member correspondence information (particularly contribution related information) is accumulated in accordance with the efforts made by member X to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. It is possible to acquire some incentives corresponding to information and enjoy the benefits of the incentives (T13). Therefore, Member X will be motivated to acquire more incentives and enjoy the benefits, and will be more actively working to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

  At this time, if at least a part of the member X (group) is a resident in the region R, the resident in the region R around the member X (especially until now has been actively engaged in reducing greenhouse gas emissions). Residents who did not come and those who have not yet joined the membership system) will be stimulated as they become aware of contributions to GHG emission reductions as they look at the efforts of Member X or learn about the benefits of the membership system and incentives through Member X. Become actively involved in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and become a member of the membership system. As a result, it is possible to raise awareness of greenhouse gas emission reductions and promote greenhouse gas emission reduction activities at the local level, not just at the level of conventional individuals and organizations.

  Next, according to the timely command signal (U1) or according to the command signal transmitted from the management device 6 to the server 3 via the communication network 2 (U2), the server 3 stores all the members stored in the database. From the member correspondence information Ix, contribution related information of a member (regardless of an individual or an organization, which may be referred to as “resident in the region R”) having an address or residence in the region R is read (U3). By this reading, at least two contributions, the contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by the green power generation equipment provided in the facility F in the region R and the contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by member X's other efforts, are obtained. Can be extracted from the database.

  Furthermore, the server 3 performs necessary calculations based on the contribution related information of the residents in the region R, and transmits the calculation results to the management device 6 via the communication network 2 (U4). Here, the necessary calculation means at least the contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by the green power generation equipment provided in the facility F in the region R and the contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by other efforts of the member X. This refers to information processing (including signal processing and arithmetic processing) necessary or desirable for displaying the two contributions individually or collectively as numerical values or charts on the display device 5. As an example of necessary treatment, from the information related to the contribution of residents in region R, the contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by green power generation equipment and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by member X's other efforts There is an operation for extracting information corresponding to each contribution degree and calculating each numerical value corresponding to each contribution degree or the accumulation of both contribution degrees.

  This necessary calculation does not need to be executed by the server 3, and may be executed by the management device 6, for example. That is, based on the contribution related information of the residents in the region R transmitted to the management device 6 via the communication network 2 by the server 3, the management device 6 that receives the information may perform necessary calculations. Good (U5).

  Next, after the management device 6 receives the result of the necessary calculation performed by the server 3 via the communication network 2 (or after the calculation result is obtained when the management device 6 performs the necessary calculation). ) And the result of the calculation is transmitted to the display device 5. The management device 6 transmits a control signal for the display device 5 to the display device 5 as necessary (U6). Based on the information received from the management device 6, the display device 5 contributes to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by the green power generation equipment provided in the facility F in the region R and the greenhouse gas emission reductions by the member X's other efforts. At least two of the contributions to the environment are individually or collectively converted into numerical values or charts. In other words, the efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the region R and the contributions of the facilities F in the region are visualized. Display (U7).

  Specific examples of the contribution to greenhouse gas emission reduction displayed on the display device 5 are numerical values corresponding to the total contribution to greenhouse gas emission reduction by the efforts of member X (first numerical value), facility F Of the green power generation equipment and energy consumption reduction equipment included in this figure (second numerical value) corresponding to the total contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and the contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions in the region R including the facility F A numerical value (third numerical value) corresponding to the total, and the display device 5 allows the first to third numerical values to remain as numerical values or to be viewed as a chart processed based on the first to third numerical values. Display in any layout or display mode that appeals to the eye.

The display device 5 is installed in a place in the field of view of the public or passerby 7 in or near the facility F in the region R, and at least a part of the public or passerby 7 is a resident in the region R. is there. Therefore, inhabitants in the region R who are in the public or passers-by 7 are visualized and displayed on the display device 5, that is, efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the region R and facilities F in the region. Can be felt through public viewing about their contributions or both (U8).

  Then, the membership system's efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and the contribution of the facility F in the region R will be noticed by the residents in the region R. Awareness of contribution can be raised. Therefore, residents in the region R can be admitted to the membership system, and individuals and organizations that are not enrolled in the membership system (especially those who are not yet enrolled around the membership of the membership system) Organizations) can also increase their awareness of contribution to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and can increase their awareness of contributions to greenhouse gas emission reductions of individuals and organizations that have already joined, as well as efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Can be expanded to the activities of the whole community. Therefore, it can contribute to the promotion of greenhouse gas emission reduction activities as a whole.

  The PC terminal 4 used by an arbitrary member X transmits a command signal to the server 3 via the communication network 2 (P1, P2) or transmits a command signal to the management device 6 (P1). , P3), information displayed on the display device 5 can be received via the communication network 2 and displayed on the display means (P4). Here, as described above, the information displayed on the display device 5 is, for example, a numerical value (first numerical value) corresponding to the total contribution to the greenhouse gas emission reduction by the efforts of the member X, the facility F Of the green power generation equipment and energy consumption reduction equipment included in this figure (second numerical value) corresponding to the total contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and the contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions in the region R including the facility F It is processed and graphed based on a numerical value (third numerical value) corresponding to the total or first to third numerical values. Therefore, the display means of the PC terminal 4 displays on the display device 5 as described above in addition to the corresponding numerical value of the contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by the efforts of the member X himself using the PC terminal 4. Information can also be displayed.

  Therefore, the member X can confirm the degree of contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by his / her own efforts, and at the same time, the greenhouse gas emission in the region R as well as the public or passers-by 7 who looks at the display device 5. As we can feel the efforts for reduction and the contribution of the facility F in the area or both, the awareness of contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions will be stimulated and we will work more actively. In addition, the residents in the region R around the member X are stimulated to be aware of the contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions as they see the efforts of the member X or know the merits of the membership system and incentives through the member X. Become actively involved in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and become a member of the membership system.

  Note that the public or the passerby who looks at the display device 5 and the member X who looks at the display means of the PC terminal 4 feel about the efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the region R and the contribution of the facility F in the region or both. In order to make it easier to obtain, it is desirable that the greenhouse gas is carbon dioxide familiar to individuals and organizations.

  As described above, according to Case 1, the improvement of greenhouse gas emission reduction awareness and the promotion of greenhouse gas emission reduction activities (including the introduction of green power generation equipment or energy consumption reduction equipment) are maintained at the level of individuals and organizations as before. It can be realized not only at the local level, but also at the local level, and it will be possible to create a big flow that extends the environmental protection efforts of individuals and organizations to that of the region.

[Case 2] When the introduction of green power generation equipment is handled separately from the membership system member's efforts and linked to visualize and display the greenhouse gas emission reduction effect In Case 1, the introduction of the green power generation equipment The example treated as one of the efforts by members of the membership system was shown. Case 2 below shows an example in which the introduction of the green power generation apparatus is handled separately from the efforts by members of the membership system.

  FIG. 4 is a process explanatory diagram of another visualization display method according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. The flow of the visualization display of the greenhouse gas emission reduction effect according to Case 2 will be described with reference to FIG. In this figure, the process indicated by T is substantially the same as that shown in FIG.

  First, the member X uses the PC terminal 4 to access the member-dedicated web page operated by the server 3 via the communication network 2 (T1, T2), enters the dedicated account Ax, and then obtains the activity record basic information. When transmitted (T7), the server 3 calculates and updates the contribution related information of the member X based on the activity result basic information (T8). Subsequently, the member correspondence information of member X is accumulated in the database (T11), and finally the member correspondence information of all members is accumulated in the database (T12).

Then, the member correspondence information (particularly contribution related information) of member X is stored in the database in accordance with the member X's efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Some kind of incentive can be acquired and the profits can be enjoyed (T13). Therefore, Member X will be motivated to acquire more incentives and enjoy the benefits, and will be more actively working to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. At this time, if at least a part of the member X (group) is a resident in the region R, the resident in the region R around the member X (especially until now has been actively engaged in reducing greenhouse gas emissions). Residents who did not come and those who have not yet joined the membership system) will be stimulated as they become aware of contributions to GHG emission reductions as they look at the efforts of Member X or learn about the benefits of the membership system and incentives through Member X. Become actively involved in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and become a member of the membership system. As a result, it is possible to raise awareness of greenhouse gas emission reductions and promote greenhouse gas emission reduction activities at the local level, not just at the level of conventional individuals and organizations.

  On the other hand, the introduction (installation, operation, etc.) of the green power generation device Y to the facility F in the region R contributes to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions in the region R. This is unrelated to the fact that the person who introduced the green power generation device is a member of the membership system. Therefore, the membership system can be used to register information about the installed green power generator and its contribution to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, regardless of whether the person who introduced the green power generator is a member. Design or configure. More specifically, the server 3 (particularly its software) that operates the membership system is improved, and information on the green power generation device Y and its contribution to reducing greenhouse gas emissions is provided on the membership system homepage. A special web page that can be registered is prepared, and a function to store information registered in the membership system in a database in a state where it can be searched, read and written is added.

  Assuming that the server 3 shown in FIG. 4 operates the membership system improved as described above, first, a person who wishes to register the green power generation apparatus Y introduced into the facility F in the membership system. (Hereinafter also referred to as “apparatus registration applicant Z”) can access the homepage of the membership system operated by the server 3 via the communication network 2 using the management apparatus 6 (K1, K2). ) When a device registration application page has been set up to solicit registration for devices that contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions on the homepage, device registration is performed by performing predetermined procedures on the device registration application page. An application can be made (K3). The device registration applicant Z is, for example, the person who introduced the green power generation device Y to the facility F, the owner or manager of the facility F or the green power generation device Y, and is a member system regardless of whether it is a natural person or a corporation. You don't have to be a member of The predetermined procedure is, for example, that the unique information of the device Y to be registered (the address of the facility F, the device owner, the role / performance of the device, etc.) is entered in the predetermined field of the device registration application page, and the server 3 It means sending.

  When the membership system (actually the server 3 that operates the membership system) accepts the application for membership with the unique information of the green power generation device Y, the membership system performs a process corresponding to the examination based on the unique information, and determines whether or not to register. (K4), if it is determined that registration is not permitted, information indicating that registration is not permitted is transmitted to the management device 6 via the communication network 2, and if it is determined that registration is permitted, the account Ay for the green power generator Y is determined. (Specifically, for example, a device account Ay corresponding area is secured in the database), and a device identification information ID * and a password PW * required for secure use of the device account Ay are issued. Is transmitted to the management device 6 via the communication network 2 (K5).

  In this way, the device registration procedure for the green power generation device Y in the membership system is completed. Thereafter, the device registration applicant Z (hereinafter referred to as “device registrant Z” after device registration) uses the device account Ay provided by the server 3. Can be used (K6).

Next, the update of the device correspondence information of the green power generation device Y provided in the facility F and the items related thereto performed by the device registrant Z using the device account Ay will be described. Here, the device correspondence information of the green power generation device Y is specific information of the green power generation device Y registered in the device, and information (value) regarding the degree of contribution of the green power generation device Y introduced to the facility F to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. Or a set thereof (hereinafter referred to as “contribution related information of the green power generation device (Y)”) or simply “contribution related information of the device (Y)”.

  First, the device registrant Z accesses the homepage of the membership system via the communication network 2 from the management device 6 and also the registered device-dedicated web page (K7, K8). By performing a predetermined procedure, it is possible to apply for entry into the device account Ay of the device Y (K9). Here, the predetermined procedure means that at least the device identification information ID * and the password PW * acquired in the device registration are transmitted to the server 3 via the communication network 2.

  When the membership system (actually the server 3 that operates the membership system) receives an application for registration with the ID * and PW * of the registered green power generation device Y, it is equivalent to an examination based on the ID * and PW *. (Device registration inquiry processing) is performed, whether entry is permitted or not is determined (K10), and when it is determined that entry is not permitted, information indicating that entry is not permitted is transmitted to the management device 6 via the communication network 2 to enter the room. When it is determined to be permitted, the device account Ay related to the application is selectively operated, and at least a part of the device correspondence information Iy of the green power generation device Y is read from the database and read to the device registrant Z. At least a part of the device correspondence information Iy is transmitted to the management device 6 through the communication network 2 together with information related to the dedicated GUI (K11). The device registrant Z completes entry into the room (K12).

  At least a part of the information (values or a set thereof) regarding the operating status of the green power generation device Y installed in the facility F is transmitted to the management device 6 via the communication network 2 by the communication device provided or connected to the green power generation device Y. It is transmitted (K13) and acquired by the management device 6. The management apparatus 6 transfers or transmits the acquired information as it is or after performing necessary calculations based on at least a part of the acquired information to the server 3 via the communication network 2 as apparatus operation basic information (K14), Based on the acquired information, the calculation necessary for obtaining the contribution related information of the clean power generator Y is performed, and the calculation result is transmitted to the server 3 via the communication network 2 (K16). In the former case, the server 3 performs a calculation necessary for obtaining contribution related information of the clean power generation device Y based on at least a part of the received device operation basic information (K15). In any case, the contribution related information of the green power generation device Y is updated in the server 3 (K17), written in the database as the device correspondence information Iy (K18), and finally the device correspondence information of all the green power generation devices. Iy is accumulated in the database (K19).

  Next, in response to a timely command signal (K20) or according to a command signal transmitted from the management device 6 to the server 3 via the communication network 2 (K21), the server 3 stores all the members stored in the database. Read the contribution related information of the residents in the region R from the member correspondence information Ix (K22), and the contribution degree of the devices installed in the facility F in the region R from the device correspondence information Iy of all green power generators Relevant information is read (K23). Based on these readings, at least two contributions: the contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by the green power generation equipment provided in the facility F in the region R and the contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by member X's other efforts Can be extracted from the database.

Further, the server 3 performs necessary calculations based on the read-out two contribution related information (contribution related information of residents in the region R and contribution related information of devices installed in the facility F in the region R). (K24), and the calculation result is transmitted to the management apparatus 6 via the communication network 2 (K26). Here, the necessary calculations are to contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by the green power generation equipment provided in the facility F in the region R, and to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by member X's efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This means information processing (including signal processing and arithmetic processing) necessary or desirable for displaying at least two of the contributions individually or collectively as numerical values or charts on the display device 5. As an example of the necessary processing, the two contribution-related information read out correspond to the contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by the green power generation device and the contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by the efforts of member X, respectively. There is an operation for extracting information and calculating each numerical value corresponding to each contribution or the accumulation of both contributions.

  This necessary calculation does not need to be executed by the server 3, and may be executed by the management device 6, for example. That is, the server 3 may be configured to transmit the two contribution related information read out to the management device 6 via the communication network 2, and the management device 6 that has received the information performs the necessary calculation (K25). .

  Next, after the management device 6 receives the result of the necessary calculation performed by the server 3 via the communication network 2 (or after the calculation result is obtained when the management device 6 performs the necessary calculation). ) And the result of the calculation is transmitted to the display device 5. The management device 6 transmits a control signal for the display device 5 to the display device 5 as necessary (K26). The display device 5 is based on the information received from the management device 6 (including the control signal when the control signal is received from the management device 6), based on the green power generation device provided in the facility F in the region R At least two of the contributions to greenhouse gas emission reduction and contributions to greenhouse gas emission reduction by member X's efforts are individually or collectively converted into numerical values or charts, in other words, within the region R Visualize and display efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and the contribution of facilities F in the area (K27).

  The display device 5 is installed in a place in the field of view of the public or passerby 7 in or near the facility F in the region R, and at least a part of the public or passerby 7 is a resident in the region R. is there. Therefore, inhabitants in the region R who are in the public or passers-by 7 are visualized and displayed on the display device 5, that is, efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the region R and facilities F in the region. Can be felt through public viewing (K28).

  Then, as in the case of Case 1, the membership system's efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and the contribution of the facility F in the region R will be visible to the residents in the region R. Can contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore, residents in the region R can be admitted to the membership system, and individuals and organizations that are not enrolled in the membership system (especially those who are not yet enrolled around the membership of the membership system) Organizations) can also increase their awareness of contributions to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and can also raise the awareness of individuals and organizations who have joined the company to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. It can contribute to improvement.

Become a member of the system. In this way, the revitalization of the efforts of the entire region to cultivate and share environmental awareness and reduce the environmental burden will be more prominent.

  Moreover, you may deform | transform the part of the flow of the process of P1 thru | or P4 shown in FIG.3 and FIG.4 as follows, for example. That is, at least one of the PC terminals 41 to 43 used by an arbitrary member X transmits a command signal to the server 3 via the communication network 2 (P1 *, P2 *) or the management devices 61 to By transmitting a command signal to at least one of 63 (P1 *, P3 *), information displayed on at least one of the display devices 51 to 53 is received via the communication network 2, and Displayed on the display means (P4 *).

  According to such a modification, the information displayed on the PC terminal 4 (any one of 41 to 43) in the process of P4 * is, for example, information on any or all regions (at least one of Ra and Rb). Information on any or all facilities F (F1, F2 or F3) or its vicinity V (V1, V2 or V3) or information displayed on any or all display devices (at least one of 51 to 53) Therefore, the information displayed on one display means (of the PC terminal) is information on a plurality of regions, a plurality of facilities or the vicinity thereof, or a plurality of display devices. In this case, since the information is a plurality of pieces of information, it is easy for the member X to compare with each other (if necessary, a result that the member X can easily compare and compare the plurality of pieces of information received by the PC terminal 4 is displayed. The PC terminal 4 may execute signal processing that is output to the means). Then, Member X can simultaneously sense not only the contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions in the individual or organization or the entire region, but also the contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions in other individuals or organizations or the entire region. Yes, the willingness to acquire incentives, environmental protection awareness, and awareness of competing with each other for environmental protection are stimulated. They will be actively involved in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and will be enrolled in the membership system (if they are non-members of the membership system). In this way, the revitalization of the efforts of the entire region to cultivate and share environmental awareness and reduce the environmental burden will be more prominent.

  The information displayed on the display means of the notation device 5 (51 to 53) and the PC terminal 4 (41 to 43) is information related to the contribution to the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions, which is one of the greenhouse gases. It is desirable to be. This is because the public or passerby 7 (711, 722 and 731) who views the display device 5 (51 to 53) and the member X who views the display means of the PC terminal 4 (41 to 43) are familiar and easy to understand. .

Alternatively, at least one of the other management devices 64, 65, 66 may be controlled via the communication network 21. In addition, when a display device is to be added in the region R, the display device may be connected to the communication network 21 via the management device 67.

<B> Membership system
The two membership systems (# 1 and # 2 shown in FIG. 7) related to the visualization display device shown in FIG. 6 and the visualization display method executed there are both executed in the visualization display device shown in FIG. This is basically the same as that related to the visualization display method. Therefore, explanation is omitted.

<C> Visualization display method executed by the visualization display device [Case 3] Linking efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by each member of multiple membership systems to visualize and display greenhouse gas emission reduction effects FIG. 7 is a process explanatory diagram of a visualization display method according to Embodiment 3 of the present invention. The flow of the visualization display of the greenhouse gas emission reduction effect according to Case 3 will be described with reference to FIG. 7, the management device 6 represents any one of the plurality of management devices 64, 65, and 66 shown in FIG. 6, and the display device 5 represents the plurality of management devices 64, 65, and 66 shown in FIG. Each of the plurality of display devices 54, 55, and 56 corresponding to each of the facilities F and its vicinity V is represented by a plurality of facilities F4, F5, F6 and its vicinity V4 shown in FIG. , V5, and the public or passerby 7 is a plurality of public or passersby 714, 725 in a place where each of the display devices 54, 55, 56 shown in FIG. , 716, and 726 are representative of any one of them.

  As will be described later, each step of visualization display according to Case 3 is almost the same as each step of visualization display according to Case 2, and the server 31 is interposed between the server 3 and the management device 6. The only difference is that Therefore, in the following, in order to avoid redundancy, a description may be omitted for a portion to which the description of the case 2 is applied as it is.

  First, by executing the steps S1 to S6 shown in FIG. 2 between the PC terminal 4 and the server 3 via the communication network 2, the server 3 is transferred to the membership system (# 1) operated by the server 3. For those who wish to join, the qualification of member X having their own member account Ax is given. Next, by executing the steps T1 to T13 shown in FIG. 2 between the PC terminal 4 and the server 3 via the communication network 2, the contribution related information is accumulated in the database for the member account Ax of the member X. As a result, the member correspondence information of all members is stored in the database of the server 3 in a searchable, readable, and writable state (T12).

On the other hand, between the management apparatus 6 and the server 31 via the communication network 21, K1 to K6 shown in FIG.
Through the execution of the above process, the server 31 makes the green power generation device Y available to those who wish to register the green power generation device Y installed in the facility F in the membership system (# 2) operated by the server 31. Qualification of the equipment registrant Z having the equipment account Ay for the equipment registrant, and then the equipment registrant by executing the processes K7 to K19 shown in FIG. The contribution-related information of the green power generation device Y is stored in the database in the device account Ay for Z, and the device correspondence information of all the green power generation devices is stored in the database of the server 31 in a state where it can be searched, read and written ( K19).

  Next, in response to a command signal in a timely manner (K20) or in response to a command signal transmitted from the management device 6 to the server 3 via the communication network 2 (K21), the server 3 is stored in the database of the server 3 The contribution related information of the residents in the region R is read out from the member correspondence information Ix of all members (K22), and the server 31 reads out the device correspondence information Iy of all the green power generators stored in the database of the server 31. The contribution related information of the apparatus installed in the facility F in the region R is read (K23). Through these readouts, contributions to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by the green power generation equipment provided in the facility F in the region R and contributions to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by other efforts of the member X who is a resident in the region R Information about two degrees of contribution is extracted.

  The server 31 transmits the contribution related information of the apparatus read from the database of the server 31 to the server 3 via the communication networks 21, 22, 2. Next, the server 3 performs necessary calculations based on the contribution related information of the residents in the region R read from the database of the server 3 and the contribution related information of the devices in the region R received from the server 31. The calculation result is transmitted to the management device 6 via the communication networks 2, 22, and 21 (K26). Here, the necessary calculations are to contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by the green power generation equipment provided in the facility F in the region R, and to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by member X's efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This means information processing (including signal processing and arithmetic processing) necessary or desirable for displaying at least two of the contributions individually or collectively as numerical values or charts on the display device 5.

  This necessary calculation need not be executed by the server 3 and may be configured to be executed by the server 31. That is, the server 3 transmits the contribution related information of the residents in the region R read from the database of the server 3 from the server 3 to the server 31 via the communication networks 21, 22, 2. Next, the server 31 performs necessary calculations based on the contribution related information of the devices in the region R read from the database of the server 31 and the contribution related information of the residents in the region R received from the server 3 (K24). The calculation result is transmitted to the management apparatus 6 via the communication network 21 (K26). You may comprise in this way.

  Further, the management apparatus 6 may be configured to execute necessary processing. That is, the servers 3 and 31 transmit the two contribution related information read from the respective databases to the management device 6 via the communication networks 2, 21, and 22. Necessary operations are executed (K25). You may comprise in this way.

  Further, the server 3 executes a part of necessary calculations based on the contribution related information of the residents in the region R read from the database of the server 3, and the calculation results are transmitted to the communication networks 21, 22, 2. And the server 31 executes another part of the necessary calculations based on the contribution related information of the devices in the region R read from the database of the server 31, The calculation result may be transmitted to the management device 6, and the management device 6 may be configured to perform the remainder of the required calculation based on the received two contribution related information (K26).

Next, the management device 6 receives the result of the necessary calculation performed by the server 3 via the communication networks 2, 21, 22 (or the calculation result when the management device 6 performs the necessary calculation). After that, the result of the calculation is transmitted to the display device 5. The management device 6 transmits a control signal for the display device 5 to the display device 5 as necessary (K26). Based on the information received from the management device 6, the display device 5 contributes to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by the green power generation device provided in the facility F in the region R and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by the efforts of the member X. At least two contributions of contributions are individually or collectively converted into numerical values or charts, in other words, efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the region R and contributions of facilities F in the region are visualized and displayed. (K27).

  The display device 5 is installed in a place in the field of view of the public or passerby 7 in or near the facility F in the region R, and at least a part of the public or passerby 7 is a resident in the region R. is there. Therefore, inhabitants in the region R who are in the public or passers-by 7 are visualized and displayed on the display device 5, that is, efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the region R and facilities F in the region. Can be felt through public viewing (K28).

  Then, as in the case of Case 1, the membership system's efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and the contribution of the facility F in the region R will be visible to the residents in the region R. Can contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore, residents in the region R can be admitted to the membership system, and individuals and organizations that are not enrolled in the membership system (especially those who are not yet enrolled around the membership of the membership system) Organizations) can also increase their awareness of contributions to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and can also raise the awareness of individuals and organizations who have joined the company to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. It can contribute to improvement.

  The member X transmits information signals sent from the PC terminal 4 to the management apparatus 6 by transmitting command signals to the server 3 and the server 31 via the communication network 2 (Q1, Q2, Q5). Can be transmitted to the PC terminal 4 and can be displayed on the display means of the PC terminal 4 (after being calculated by the PC terminal 4 if necessary for the received information) (Q4).

  Further, the member X transmits a command signal from the PC terminal 4 to the management device 6 via the communication network 2 (Q1, Q3), so that the information displayed on the display device 5 is transmitted to the PC via the communication network 2. It can be received by the terminal 4 and displayed on the display means (Q4).

  In the flow of the visualization display process according to Case 2 shown in FIG. 4, in a single membership system operated by a single server 3, the contribution degree of member X to greenhouse gas emission reduction is summarized, After calculating both the contributions to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions through the introduction of the green power generation device Y, the calculation process for converting both contributions individually or collectively into numerical values or charts is executed and finally displayed. It is displayed on the device 5. On the other hand, in the flow of the visualization display process according to case 3 shown in FIG. 7, in the membership system (# 1) operated by the server 3, the contribution degree to the greenhouse gas emission reduction by the member X is shown. In the separate membership system (# 2) operated by the server 31, the contributions are made by separately summarizing the contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions through the introduction of the green power generator Y. Arithmetic processing for converting the degrees individually or collectively into numerical values or charts is executed and finally displayed on the display device 5. Therefore, each process of visualization display according to Case 3 is almost the same as each process of visualization display according to Case 2. In this sense, the advantages obtained in case 2 can also be obtained in case 3.

Therefore, even in Case 3, it will be possible not only to realize the improvement of greenhouse gas emission reduction awareness and the promotion of greenhouse gas emission reduction activities at the individual and organization level as before, but also at the local level. It will be possible to create a big trend to expand the environmental protection efforts of individuals and organizations to that of the region.

[Case 4] In the case where the management device 67 is involved in visualizing and displaying the greenhouse gas emission reduction effect In Case 3, the management device 6 combines the control signal of the display device 5 with the display device 5 as necessary. (K26), and a command signal can be transmitted to the server 3 via the communication networks 2, 21, and 22 (K21). These signals play an important role in the operation and control of the visual display of the greenhouse gas emission reduction effect. Therefore, entrusting the management device 67 with at least part of the role of visualizing and displaying the greenhouse gas emission reduction effect including the transmission of these signals (including the role related to device registration of the green power generation device), The burden on the other management apparatus 6 (64, 65, 66) is reduced. This is Case 4.

  FIG. 8 is another process explanatory diagram of the visualization display method according to Embodiment 3 of the present invention. In the light of FIG. 8, the flow of the visualization display of the greenhouse gas emission reduction effect according to Case 4 will be described. However, the difference from the process explanatory diagram of the visualization display method shown in FIG. 7 is that a management device 67 is interposed between the server 31 and the management device 6 (any one of 64, 65, 66). Except for the point that the management device 67 can transmit the control signal (K26) and the command signal (K21) as necessary, the flow of visualization display of the greenhouse gas emission reduction effect according to the case 3 is basically performed. Since it is the same, the description about each process is abbreviate | omitted except the following matter. That is, in the case 3, as shown in FIG. 7, at least a part of the information (values or a set thereof) relating to the operating status of the green power generation device Y includes a communication network 2 provided by or connected to the green power generation device Y. Is transmitted to the management apparatus 6 via (K13) and acquired by the management apparatus 6. On the other hand, in the case 4, since the management device 67 plays the role of the management device 6 in the case 3, the other management device 6 (any one of 64, 65, 67) is the green power generation device Y. When a signal is transmitted to the management device 67 via the communication network 21 by a communication device provided or connected to (K13), it is only necessary to transfer the signal (K13 *). Moreover, in case 3, as shown in FIG. 7, the management apparatus 6 transmits the control signal of the display apparatus 5 to the display apparatus 5 as needed (K26). On the other hand, in case 4, since the management device 67 plays the role of the management device 6 in case 3, the other management devices 6 (any one of 64, 65, and 67) are managed by the management device 67. When a signal (including a control signal of the display device 5 transmitted as necessary) is transmitted to the display device 5 (K26), it is only necessary to transfer the signal, but the management device 67 transmits the communication network 21. It may be configured to have a function other than the transfer of the signal transmitted through the terminal, for example, a function of performing a necessary calculation based on the received signal (K26 *).

  As described above, the flow of visualization of the greenhouse gas emission reduction effect according to Case 4 is basically the same as that of Case 3, so that the advantages obtained in Case 3 can also be obtained in Case 4. it can.

  Therefore, even in Case 4, it will be possible not only to realize the improvement of greenhouse gas emission reduction awareness and the promotion of greenhouse gas emission reduction activities at the individual and organization level as before, but also at the local level. It will be possible to create a big trend to expand the environmental protection efforts of individuals and organizations to that of the region.

In case 4, the management device 67 is installed in the facility F 7 in the region R and is directly connected to the communication network 21. This is because such an arrangement is convenient for adding a display device after the fact. However, it is intended or prioritized to reduce the burden on the other management devices 64, 65, 66 by entrusting at least a part of the operation of visualizing and controlling the greenhouse gas emission reduction effect to the management device 67. In the case of making it, the management device 67 may be installed outside the facility F7 or may be installed outside the region R. Further, the management device 67 may not be directly connected only to the communication network 21 as long as it is connected to a communication network connectable to the communication networks 2, 21, and 22.

F, F1 to F7: Facility or range thereof with a green power generation device or energy consumption reduction device R, Ra, Rb: Region or range thereof V, V1 to V5: Neighborhood of a facility F with a green power generation device or energy consumption reduction device Or its range 1, 11, 12: Visualization display device 2, 21, 22: Communication network 3, 31: Server 4, 41-45: Computer terminal (PC terminal)
