The employee number is an example of user identification information. The department to which the user belongs is the department to which the user belongs, such as “Sales Department” or “Development Department”. A floor and an area are places where a user's department belongs. The device operation level is a user operation level for the device. The device operation level is represented by numerical values such as “1”, “2”, “3”, etc., and the higher the numerical value, the higher the skill for the device. The administrator role is a user management authority for the device. The administrator role includes, for example, authority to manage the server of the development department (development department_server administrator), authority to manage the printer of the development department (development department_printer administrator), and the like.

The name of the energy saving measure is a name of the energy saving measure, and for example, “lights off at lunch break”, “execution of sleep setting of PC”, “execution of energy saving setting of printer”, and the like. The energy saving effect is an effect obtained when an energy saving measure is implemented, and is expressed, for example, as a ratio (%) of a reduced power consumption amount. The standard measure implementation time is a standard time required for implementing the energy saving measure.

Further, the measure information generation unit 28 may add the additional information generated by the additional information generation unit 30 described later to the energy saving measure candidate. The measure information generation unit 28 corresponds to an example of an energy saving measure output unit.

  The additional information generation unit 30 includes a prediction effect calculation unit 32 and a prediction time calculation unit 34. The prediction effect calculation unit 32 multiplies the power consumption per day (kWh) included in the device attribute information shown in FIG. 4 by the energy saving effect (%) included in the energy saving measure information shown in FIG. The predicted value (predicted reduction amount) of the amount of power that is reduced when the measure is implemented is obtained. The predicted time calculation unit 34 predicts the time required for implementing the energy saving measure based on the device operation level included in the user attribute information shown in FIG. 3 and the standard measure implementation time included in the energy saving measure information shown in FIG. (Predicted execution time) is obtained. For example, the device operation level “2” is a standard skill, the device operation level “3” is a skill higher than the standard, and the device operation level “1” is a skill lower than the standard. In this case, if the device operation level is “3”, the predicted time calculation unit 34 calculates a time shorter than the standard measure implementation time (for example, a time in which a preset ratio is reduced from the standard measure implementation time). If the device operation level is “1”, a time longer than the standard measure implementation time (for example, a time in which a preset ratio is added to the standard measure implementation time) is output as the measure implementation time. Output as. Further, the predicted time calculation unit 34 outputs the standard measure implementation time if the device operation level is “2”.

  Next, the configuration of the mobile terminal device 60 will be described. The mobile terminal device 60 includes a position information acquisition unit 62, a communication unit 64, a user interface (UI unit) 66, and a control unit 68. The position information acquisition unit 62 acquires current position information indicating the current position of the mobile terminal device 60 by using, for example, GPS (Global Positioning System). Further, the position information acquisition unit 62 may acquire information such as a floor or an area where a user who owns the mobile terminal device 60 exists. The communication unit 64 is a network interface, for example, and communicates with the energy saving measure providing apparatus 10 via the network N. The UI unit 66 is a user interface and includes a display unit that displays various types of information and an operation unit that receives user operations. The control unit 68 controls each unit of the mobile terminal device 60. The mobile terminal device 60 includes a processor such as a CPU (not shown), and the functions of each unit of the mobile terminal device 60 are realized by the processor executing a program.

  Next, an example of the operation of the energy saving measure providing apparatus 10 according to the first embodiment will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. For example, as illustrated in FIG. 2, when the user P exists in the area 02 on the third floor (third floor), the acquisition of the energy saving measure is requested. At this time, the user P inputs user identification information through the UI unit 66 of the portable terminal device 60 and instructs acquisition of an energy saving measure. Here, the user identification information of the user P is “UserID_532”. The communication unit 64 of the mobile terminal device 60 transmits the energy saving measure acquisition request, the current position information acquired by the position information acquiring unit 62 and the user identification information to the energy saving measure providing apparatus 10 via the network N. Note that the user P may input information on the floor or area where the user P exists through the UI unit 66. In this case, the current position information includes floor and area information input by the user P.

  The communication unit 12 of the energy saving measure providing apparatus 10 acquires an acquisition request for energy saving measures, user identification information, and current location information from the mobile terminal device 60 via the network N (S01).

  Based on the user identification information, the user attribute information, the device attribute information, and the current position information, the measure information generation unit 28 acquires the energy saving measure information that matches the conditions indicated by the information from the measure information storage unit 20 (S02). ). Hereinafter, the process of step S02 will be described in detail.

  First, the measure information generation unit 28 acquires user attribute information corresponding to the user identification information (“UserID_532”) transmitted from the mobile terminal device 60 from the user information storage unit 16. According to the user attribute information shown in FIG. 3, the user P (UserID_532) belongs to the development department. The device operation level of the user P with respect to the PC, server, and printer is “3”, and the user P has management authority as “development unit_IT device manager” and “development unit_printer manager”.

  Then, the measure information generation unit 28 is based on the management authority (administrator role) included in the user attribute information, the current position information of the user P, and the device attribute information stored in the device information storage unit 18. A device that satisfies the preset location relationship between the current position and the installation location and for which the user P has management authority is selected as a target device for the energy saving measure. The measure information generation unit 28 acquires energy saving measure information indicating the energy saving measure for the selected target device from the measure information storage unit 20. The place condition is defined in units of floors or areas, for example. In this case, the measure information generation unit 28 selects a device that the user P has management authority and is installed on the same floor or the same area as the current position of the user P as a target device for the energy saving measure. For example, since the user P (UserID_532) is “development department_IT device administrator” and “development department_printer administrator”, according to the device attribute information shown in FIG. 4, the user P has management authority such as “printer_0501”. Have Taking “Printer — 0501” as an example, since “Printer — 0501” is installed in the area 02 of the same 3F as the current position of the user P, the measure information generation unit 28 sets “Printer — 0501” as the target of the energy saving measure. Select as equipment. The measure information generation unit 28 may select a device installed on the same floor as the current position of the user P as a target device for the energy saving measure, or may be installed in the same area as the current position of the user P. You may select an apparatus as an object apparatus of an energy-saving measure.

  The “printer — 0501” selected as described above will be described as an example. As illustrated in FIG. 4, since the device type of “printer — 0501” is “shared printer”, the measure information generation unit 28 selects “shared printer”. Select energy saving measures. In the example shown in FIG. 5, for the “shared printer”, “Energy saving setting for printer” and “Printer power OFF when returning home” are prepared as energy saving measures.

  In the energy saving measure “Energy saving setting for printer”, the standard measure execution time is “3 minutes”, the allowable time zone for execution is not set, and the energy saving effect is “30%” power reduction. In addition, an administrator authority is required, and it is permitted for a user whose device operation level to the printer is “2” or more to implement an energy saving measure. According to the user attribute information shown in FIG. 3, the device operation level of the user P for the printer is “3”. Therefore, the device operation level of the user P satisfies the device operation level required for the energy saving measure “Energy saving setting of printer”. In addition, in the energy saving measure “Printer power off when returning home”, the standard measure implementation time is “1 minute”, and the time period during which the energy saving measure is allowed is “18: 00-24: 00”. Yes, the energy saving effect is "20%" power reduction. Also, no administrator authority is required, and no device operation level restrictions are set. Accordingly, the measure information generation unit 28 selects “execution of energy saving setting for printer” and “printer power OFF when returning home” as the energy saving measure for the user P.

  Note that the measure information generation unit 28 may select an energy saving measure by referring to the implementation allowable time zone. For example, since there is no time zone in which the energy saving measure “Energy saving setting of printer” is prohibited, the measure information generating unit 28 selects the energy saving measure “Energy saving setting of printer” regardless of the current time. To do. On the other hand, with regard to the energy saving measure “Printer power off when returning home”, the implementation of the energy saving measure is permitted between 18:00 and 24:00, and the implementation of the energy saving measure is prohibited during other times. . Therefore, when the current time is included between 18:00 and 24:00, the measure information generation unit 28 selects the energy saving measure “Energy saving setting for printer” and the current time is 18: 00−. If it is not included between 24:00, the energy saving measure “Energy saving setting of printer” is not selected.

  For the devices other than “Printer — 0501”, the measure information generation unit 28 selects the target device for the energy saving measure by the same processing as described above, and acquires the energy saving measure information for the target device from the measure information storage unit 20.

  Then, when the energy saving measure information is acquired from the measure information storage unit 20 by the measure information generation unit 28 (S03, Yes), the prediction effect calculation unit 32 obtains the predicted reduction amount (S04), and the prediction time calculation unit 34 predicts. The execution time is obtained (S05). When the energy saving measure information is acquired by the measure information generation unit 28, there is an energy saving measure that can be implemented by the user P. The measure information generation unit 28 includes the name of the energy-saving measure included in the energy-saving measure information, information on the target device of the energy-saving measure (device name and device type), information indicating the installation location of the target device, the predicted reduction amount, and the predicted execution time Generate energy-saving measure candidates including When there are a plurality of energy saving measure candidates, the measure information generating unit 28 generates a list including the plurality of energy saving measure candidates. Note that the predicted reduction amount and the predicted execution time may not be obtained, or at least one of the predicted reduction amount and the predicted execution time may be obtained. The measure information generation unit 28 includes information obtained from the predicted reduction amount and the predicted execution time in the energy saving measure candidates. Further, the processes of steps S04 and S05 may be performed simultaneously, or the order of the processes may be reversed.

  When there are a plurality of energy saving measure candidates, the measure information generating unit 28 may set a priority for each energy saving measure candidate. In this case, the measure information generation unit 28 determines the priority based on the predicted execution time, the predicted reduction amount, or the current position of the user. For example, the measure information generation unit 28 sets a higher priority for an energy saving measure candidate having a shorter predicted execution time among a plurality of energy saving measure candidates. Alternatively, the measure information generation unit 28 may set higher priority for an energy saving measure candidate having a larger predicted reduction amount among a plurality of energy saving measure candidates. Alternatively, the measure information generation unit 28 may set a higher priority for an energy saving measure candidate for a device installed near the current position based on the current position of the user P and the installation position of the device. For example, the measure information generation unit 28 sets the highest priority of energy saving measure candidates for devices installed on the same floor and the same area as the current position of the user P, and sets the priority on the same floor as the current position but in a different area. The priority of the energy saving measure candidate for the installed device is set second, and the priority of the energy saving measure for the device installed on the floor different from the current position is set to the lowest. For example, when the priority is represented by a numerical value, the priority is set so that the priority decreases as the numerical value increases.

  When the energy saving measure candidate is generated by the measure information generating unit 28 as described above, the communication unit 12 transmits the energy saving measure candidate (list) to the mobile terminal device 60 via the network N (S06).

  On the other hand, when the energy saving measure information is not acquired from the measure information storage unit 20 by the measure information generating unit 28 (S03, No), the communication unit 12 of the energy saving measure providing apparatus 10 has no energy saving measure that the user P can implement. Information indicating that is transmitted to the mobile terminal device 60 via the network N (S09). Thereby, the user P recognizes that there is no energy-saving measure which can be implemented now.

  The control unit 68 of the mobile terminal device 60 causes the UI unit 66 to display information transmitted from the energy saving measure providing device 10. When the list of energy saving measure candidates is transmitted to the mobile terminal device 60, the control unit 68 causes the UI unit 66 to display the list. FIG. 8 shows an example of a list of energy saving measure candidates. The list includes the priority of the energy saving measure, the name of the energy saving measure, the name of the target device, the type of the target device, the installation location (floor and area), the predicted execution time, and the energy saving effect (predicted reduction amount). For example, “Energy saving setting for printer”, “Monitor power OFF when leaving seat”, and “Turn off absent area” are included in the list as energy saving measure candidates. The list illustrated in FIG. 8 is an example, and the measure information generation unit 28 may not add the priority, the predicted execution time, and the energy saving effect (predicted reduction amount) to the list of energy saving measure candidates.

  Then, when the user P selects and implements an energy saving measure candidate from the list displayed on the UI unit 66 and instructs the UI unit 66 to carry out the implementation (S07, Yes), the mobile terminal device 60 The communication unit 64 transmits implementation information indicating that the selected energy saving measure has been implemented to the energy saving measure providing apparatus 10 via the network N. For example, the communication unit 64 includes the information on the implemented energy saving measure candidates, the user identification information of the user P who has implemented the energy saving measure, the time (implementation time) and the implementation date required for implementing the energy saving measure in the implementation information. It transmits to the energy saving measure providing apparatus 10. For example, as shown in FIG. 8, when an “execution button” is provided for each energy saving measure candidate, and the user P implements an energy saving measure, the user P can designate an already implemented energy saving measure candidate with the “execution button”. You may do it. The information on the energy saving measure candidate designated by the “execution button” is included in the implementation information. The “execution button” is added to the list by the measure information generation unit 28, for example. The user P may input the implementation date and time and the implementation time through the UI unit 66.

  In addition, the energy information management unit 24 of the energy saving measure providing apparatus 10 obtains the amount of power reduced by implementing the energy saving measure based on the change in the power consumption amount of the device on which the energy saving measure is implemented.

  The energy saving information management unit 14 of the energy saving measure providing apparatus 10 stores information related to the implemented energy saving measure as history information in the history information storage unit 22 (S08). For example, the energy-saving information management unit 14 generates history information based on the information transmitted from the mobile terminal device 60 and the amount of power obtained by the energy information management unit 24, and stores the history information in the history information storage unit 22. . For example, as illustrated in FIG. 6, the energy saving information management unit 14 includes the name of the energy saving measure implemented by the user P, the date and time (implementation date and time), the target device of the energy saving measure, the device type, and the location of the energy saving measure ( The installation location of the target device), the implementation user information regarding the user P who has implemented the energy saving measure, the implementation time required for implementing the energy saving measure, the energy saving effect, etc. are included in the history information and stored in the history information storage unit 22. The energy saving effect is the amount of electric power obtained by the energy information management unit 24.

  On the other hand, when the energy saving measure is not implemented (S07, No), the process ends.

  Here, a specific example of history information will be described with reference to FIG. For example, user P (UserID_532) will be described as an example. In the example illustrated in FIG. 6, the energy saving measure implemented by the user P is “printer power OFF when returning home”. This energy saving measure was implemented at 19:54 on December 10, 2012 for “Printer — 0501” whose device type is “Shared Printer”. The time (implementation time) required for the user P to implement the energy saving measure is “1 minute”, and the energy saving effect is “0.8 kWh”.

  The communication unit 12 may transmit the amount of power as an energy saving effect to the mobile terminal device 60. Thereby, the energy saving effect is confirmed by the user.

  As described above, an energy saving measure that can be implemented by the user is provided by selecting the energy saving measure based on the current position of the user and the management authority and transmitting the selected energy saving measure to the mobile terminal device 60. Therefore, an energy saving measure that is easily linked to the user's energy saving activity is provided. In other words, energy saving measures that cannot be implemented by the user or difficult for the user are not provided, and energy saving measures that can be implemented according to the situation in which the user is placed are provided to the user. easy. Thus, according to the present embodiment, information that is likely to lead to an improvement in the implementation rate of energy saving activities is provided to the user.

  For example, by selecting a device installed on the same floor or in the same area as the current location of the user as the target device for the energy saving measure, the user is provided with an energy saving measure that is easy for the user to implement from the viewpoint of the user's travel distance. Will be. In addition, by selecting a device for which the user has management authority as a target device for energy saving measures, devices that the user cannot actually operate are excluded from the target devices for energy saving measures. This will provide users with energy-saving measures.

  Further, by providing the predicted execution time to the user, energy saving activities taking into account the predicted execution time are performed by the user. For example, when an energy saving activity is performed using a free time such as a waiting time, the predicted execution time is used as a reference. In addition, by providing the user with the predicted reduction amount (energy saving effect), the effect when the energy saving measure is actually implemented is grasped by the user.

[Second Embodiment]
Next, a second embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. In the second embodiment, the execution condition of the energy saving measure is designated by the user, and the energy saving measure providing apparatus 10 provides the portable terminal device 60 with the energy saving measure candidate that matches the execution condition.

  FIG. 9 shows an example of implementation conditions. Implementation conditions include, for example, the target range where energy conservation measures are implemented, the implementation time (allowable value) required to implement energy conservation measures, and the energy saving effect that is the amount of power reduced when energy conservation measures are implemented. . The control unit 68 of the portable terminal device 60 causes the UI unit 66 to display an execution condition input screen illustrated in FIG. 9. The user refers to the input screen and designates an execution condition through the UI unit 66. Note that the information related to the input screen is transmitted from, for example, the energy saving measure providing apparatus 10 to the mobile terminal device 60, and the control unit 68 causes the UI unit 66 to display the input screen.

  When an execution condition is specified by the user and acquisition of an energy saving measure is instructed, the communication unit 64 of the mobile terminal device 60 receives an acquisition request for the energy saving measure, current location information, user identification information, and an execution condition information indicating the execution condition. And transmitted to the energy saving measure providing apparatus 10 via the network N.

  Based on the user identification information, user attribute information, device attribute information, current position information, and implementation condition information, the measure information generating unit 28 of the energy saving measure providing apparatus 10 selects the energy saving measure information that matches the conditions indicated by the information. Obtained from the storage unit 20.

  For example, it is assumed that “the same area as the current position” is designated by the user as the condition of the target range. In this case, the measure information generation unit 28 refers to the device attribute information shown in FIG. 4 and selects a device that the user has management authority and is installed in the same area as the current position of the user as a target of the energy saving measure. Select as equipment. For example, as shown in FIG. 2, it is assumed that the user P (UserID_532) exists in the area 02 of 3F. As shown in FIG. 4, since “Printer — 0501” is installed in the area 02 on the 3rd floor, the measure information generation unit 28 uses “Printer — 0501” installed in the same area as the user P as the target device for the energy saving measure. Choose as.

  When “the same floor as the current position” is specified by the user as the target range condition, the measure information generation unit 28 selects a device installed on the same floor as the current position of the user as the target device. When “upper and lower one floor range” is designated by the user, the measure information generation unit 28 selects, as a target device, a device installed in the upper and lower one floor range based on the current position of the user. .

  Further, when “within 2 minutes” is designated by the user as the condition for the implementation time, the measure information generation unit 28 refers to the energy saving measure information shown in FIG. 5 and performs the energy saving measure with the implementation time “within 2 minutes”. select. Referring to FIG. 4, the device type of “Printer — 0501” is “Shared Printer”. As shown in FIG. 5, for the “shared printer”, “Energy saving setting of printer” and “Power off of printer at home” are prepared as energy saving measures. Among these energy saving measures, the standard execution time of “Energy saving setting for printer” is “3 minutes”, so it does not meet the condition “within 2 minutes” of the execution time. Therefore, the measure information generation unit 28 does not select “Energy saving setting for printer”.

  When the energy saving effect condition is designated, the measure information generation unit 28 selects an energy saving measure in which the predicted reduction amount obtained by the prediction effect calculating unit 32 satisfies the energy saving effect condition. In other words, the measure information generation unit 28 selects an energy saving measure in which the predicted reduction amount is larger than the energy saving effect (power amount) specified as the condition.

  When “None” is selected by the user for the target range, the implementation time, and the energy saving effect, the measure information generation unit 28 does not take into account the target range, the implementation time, and the energy saving effect, and the user's management authority and device operation Energy conservation measures that meet the level requirements will be selected.

  In the example shown in FIG. 9, the target range, the implementation time, and the energy saving effect are shown as the implementation conditions, but at least one of these may be selected by the user as the implementation conditions.

  As described above, by selecting an energy-saving measure that matches the implementation conditions specified by the user, an energy-saving measure that meets the user's requirements is provided to the user. Energy saving measures to be obtained are provided to users. Therefore, it is easy to improve the implementation rate of energy saving measures. For example, when the user designates the target range, the user is provided with an energy saving measure in consideration of the moving distance of the user, and thus the provided energy saving measure is easily connected to the energy saving activity. Further, when the user designates the implementation time, an energy saving measure in consideration of the time that can be used for the energy saving activity is provided to the user. For example, even in a situation where the user has no time, the user is provided with an energy-saving measure that the user can implement in that situation. Therefore, the provided energy-saving measure is likely to be linked to an energy-saving activity. Further, when the user designates the energy saving effect, the user is provided with an energy saving measure for obtaining the energy saving effect requested by the user.

[Third Embodiment]
Next, a third embodiment will be described. In 3rd Embodiment, the historical information of implementation of an energy-saving measure is provided to the portable terminal device 60. FIG. FIG. 10 shows an example of an energy saving measure providing system according to the third embodiment. As illustrated in FIG. 10, the additional information generation unit 30 </ b> A of the energy saving measure providing apparatus 10 </ b> A according to the third embodiment includes a history information extraction unit 36 in addition to the prediction effect calculation unit 32 and the prediction time calculation unit 34. Except for the history information extraction unit 36, the energy saving measure providing apparatus 10A has the same configuration as the energy saving measure providing apparatus 10 according to the first embodiment.

  The history information extraction unit 36 extracts history information of energy saving measures provided to the user from the history information storage unit 22. For example, the history information extraction unit 36 extracts, from the history information storage unit 22, history information of the same energy saving measure implemented in the past for the same device as the target device of the energy saving measure provided to the user.

  For example, a user (UserID_105) having the management authority of “sales department_IT device administrator” requests acquisition of an energy saving measure, and the “shared printer” (printer_0101) “execution setting of printer energy saving” is requested to this user. We will explain the case of providing energy saving measures.

  Referring to the history information shown in FIG. 6, on December 5, 2012, “Energy saving setting for printer” is implemented for “Shared printer” (printer_0101). This energy saving measure is implemented by a user (UserID_104) belonging to the “sales department”. In this case, the history information extraction unit 36 extracts history information related to the energy saving measure “execution of energy saving setting of printer” from the history information storage unit 22 and outputs the history information to the measure information generation unit 28. The history information extraction unit 36 may extract and output at least one of the measure implementation user information regarding the measure implementation user, the implementation time, and the energy saving effect among the history information stored in the history information storage unit 22. .

  The measure information generation unit 28 adds the history information extracted by the history information extraction unit 36 to the energy saving measure candidate. Then, the energy saving measure candidate to which the history information is added is provided to the mobile terminal device 60.

  As described above, by providing the portable terminal device 60 with energy saving measure candidates including history information, a user who intends to perform energy saving activities from now on (a user who has requested acquisition of energy saving measures) has a past record of energy saving activities. Will be provided. By referring to the history information, energy conservation measures can be implemented more efficiently.

  For example, when measure implementation user information is added to the energy conservation measure candidate as history information, information on users (experienced) who have implemented the same energy conservation measure in the past for the same target device Provided to the user who wants to go. Therefore, various inquiries to the experienced person are easy for the user who intends to perform energy saving activities from now on. For example, since it becomes easy to inquire an experienced person about the detailed implementation method and effect of the energy saving measure, the energy saving measure is more efficiently implemented. Even if the user is the first user to implement an energy saving measure, it is easy to make an inquiry to an experienced person, so the energy saving measure can be easily implemented.

  In addition, when the implementation time is added to the energy saving measure candidate as history information, it is easy to accurately predict the time required to implement the energy saving measure. Moreover, when the energy saving effect is added to the energy saving measure candidate as history information, it is easy to accurately predict the energy saving effect.

  Note that the history information extraction unit 36 may extract, from the history information storage unit 22, history information in which the department to which the user who requested acquisition of the energy saving measure and the measure implementing user belong is the same. In the above example, as shown in FIG. 3, the user (UserID_105) who made the acquisition request belongs to the “sales department”, and as shown in FIG. I belong to the Sales Department. Thus, since the department to which the user who requested the acquisition of the energy saving measure and the department to which the user who has implemented the energy saving measure in the past are both “sales department”, the history information extracting unit 36 is the user (UserID_104). Extracts history information of energy saving measures implemented in the past from the history information storage unit 22. Accordingly, history information of users belonging to the same department as the user is provided to a user who intends to perform an energy saving activity. Therefore, it becomes easier for a user who intends to carry out energy saving activities to make an inquiry to an experienced person.

  In addition, the measure information generation unit 28 may count the number of times the energy saving measure is implemented, and may include the count value in the history information storage unit 22 as the experience value of the energy saving measure included in the history information. In this case, the history information extraction unit 36 may extract history information including experience values (count values) from the history information storage unit 22. When the experience value (count value) of the energy saving measure is transmitted to the mobile terminal device 60, the experience value is used as a determination material when determining the past performance record of the energy saving measure, for example.

[Fourth Embodiment]
Next, a fourth embodiment will be described. The configuration of the energy saving measure providing system according to the fourth embodiment is the same as the configuration of the energy saving measure providing system according to the third embodiment. In the fourth embodiment, the energy saving information management unit 14 updates the measure execution time included in the energy saving measure information based on the device operation level and the execution time included in the history information of the energy saving measure. That is, the energy-saving information management unit 14 updates the policy implementation time included in the energy-saving policy information based on the device operation level of the user who implemented the energy-saving policy in the past and the time (implementation time) actually required for the implementation. To do.

  FIG. 11 shows an example of the updated energy saving measure information. The updated energy saving measure information includes measure execution time for each device operation level instead of the standard measure execution time shown in FIG. The device operation level is a device operation level of a user who has implemented energy saving measures in the past. The measure implementation time for each device operation level is, for example, an average value of actual implementation times. For example, the energy saving measure “optimization of PC print settings” will be described as an example. Regarding this energy saving measure, the execution time of the user whose device operation level is “1” is “6 minutes”, and the execution time of the user whose device operation level is “3” is “3 minutes”. Thus, even when the same energy saving measure is implemented, the time required for implementation differs depending on the user's device operation level (skill).

  The measure information generation unit 28 refers to the updated energy saving measure information, and includes the measure execution time corresponding to the device operation level of the user who requested acquisition of the energy saving measure in the energy saving measure candidate. Thereby, the measure implementation time according to the user's device operation level (skill) is provided to the user. For example, the energy saving measure “optimization of PC print settings” will be described as an example. If the device operation level of the user who requested the acquisition of the energy saving measure is “1”, the measure information generating unit 28 selects the measure implementation time “6 minutes” corresponding to the level “1” and measures the candidate for the energy saving measure. Include implementation time “6 minutes”.

  As described above, by providing the user with the measure execution time according to the device operation level, the measure execution time with higher accuracy is provided to the user. In addition, by updating the measure implementation time based on the history information, the time actually taken to implement the energy save measure is reflected in the energy save measure.

  In addition, you may determine beforehand the policy implementation time according to an apparatus operation level, not based on historical information. Also in this case, the measure implementation time corresponding to the user's skill is provided to the user.

[Fifth Embodiment]
Next, a fifth embodiment will be described. In the fifth embodiment, energy saving measure candidates are provided to the mobile terminal device 60 based on the power consumption of each device without waiting for an energy saving measure acquisition request. In FIG. 12, an example of the energy-saving measure provision system which concerns on 5th Embodiment is shown. As illustrated in FIG. 12, the energy saving information management unit 14 </ b> A of the energy saving measure providing apparatus 10 </ b> B according to the fifth embodiment includes a target value storage unit 38. Except for the target value storage unit 38, the energy saving measure providing apparatus 10B has the same configuration as the energy saving measure providing apparatus 10 according to the first embodiment.

  The target value storage unit 38 stores in advance energy saving target values for each office, building, department, floor, or area. FIG. 13 shows an example of the energy saving target value. As shown in FIG. 13, the place (floor and area) and the target value are associated with each other. The target value includes a warning value and an upper limit value. The upper limit value is an upper limit of the amount of power supplied. The warning value is a value serving as a reference for timing for providing the energy saving measure candidate to the mobile terminal device 60. The energy saving measure providing apparatus 10 </ b> B provides energy saving measure candidates to the mobile terminal device 60 when the peak power consumption exceeds the warning value. The energy saving measure providing apparatus 10B may acquire the target value from the outside without including the target value storage unit 38. For example, the target value may be input by a user through a user interface (not shown).

  Here, with reference to FIG.14 and FIG.15, the energy information memorize | stored in the energy information storage part 26 is demonstrated. For example, as illustrated in FIG. 14, the energy information management unit 24 manages the transition of the power consumption of each device, and stores the power consumption of each device at each time in the energy information storage unit 26 as energy information. The energy information indicates a correspondence between the name of the device, the installation location (floor and area), the device type, and the power consumption amount for each time. In addition, the energy information management unit 24 obtains the total power consumption of each device installed in the same building, the same department, the same floor, or the same area every hour. As an example, FIG. 15 shows the transition of power consumption in the area 01 of 3F (3rd floor) on a certain day. FIG. 15 shows the total power consumption of each device at each time.

  The energy information management unit 24 generates a command for generating energy saving measure candidates when the total power consumption of each device installed in the same building, the same department, the same floor, or the same area exceeds the warning value. To 28. In this case, the measure information generation unit 28 selects an energy saving measure candidate so that the total power consumption of each device is less than the warning value, and provides the portable terminal device 60 with the energy saving measure candidate. Hereinafter, an example of the process of the measure information generation unit 28 will be described.

  First, the measure information generation unit 28 is installed in a building, department, floor or area where the total power consumption exceeds the warning value based on the energy information (see FIG. 14) stored in the energy information storage unit 26. Identify each device that is subject to energy conservation measures. Then, the measure information generation unit 28 is based on the device attribute information and the user attribute information, for example, a user of a user who belongs to the same department, the same floor, or the same area as the target device and has the management authority for the target device. Identify identification information. Thereby, the user who can implement an energy saving measure with respect to the target device is specified. Then, the measure information generation unit 28 selects an energy saving measure that is an energy saving measure for the target device and matches the user's device operation level. When there are a plurality of target devices, the measure information generation unit 28 selects an energy saving measure for each target device. When there are a plurality of users who can implement an energy saving measure, the measure information generating unit 28 selects an energy saving measure that can be implemented by each user. Furthermore, when there are a plurality of users and target devices that can implement an energy saving measure, the measure information generation unit 28 selects an energy saving measure that each user can implement for each target device. On the other hand, the prediction effect calculation unit 32 calculates the predicted reduction amount of each target device when each energy saving measure is implemented. Then, the measure information generation unit 28 obtains the difference between the total power consumption of each target device and the warning value, and provides it to each user so that the total predicted reduction amount of each target device is larger than the difference. Select a candidate for energy saving measures.

  The communication unit 12 transmits a list of energy saving measure candidates to the mobile terminal device 60 of each user based on the user identification information of each user. When there are a plurality of users who can implement the energy saving measure, the communication unit 12 transmits a list of energy saving measure candidates to the mobile terminal devices 60 of the plurality of users.

  As a specific example, 3F area 01 will be described as an example. For example, as shown in FIG. 13, the warning value of the area 01 on the 3rd floor is set to 1300 Wh, and the upper limit value is set to 1400 Wh. Further, as shown in FIG. 15, at 14:00, the total power consumption of each device installed in the area 01 on the 3F exceeds the warning value. In this case, the energy information management unit 24 detects that the total amount of power consumption of each device has exceeded the warning value, and outputs an energy saving measure candidate generation command to the measure information generation unit 28.

  The measure information generation unit 28 refers to the energy information shown in FIG. 14 to identify each device installed in the area 01 on the third floor as a target device for the energy saving measure, and each device at the time of 14:00 Get the power consumption of. Referring to FIG. 14, “PC — 0101”, “PC — 0102”, and the like are devices installed in the area 01 on the 3rd floor, and thus are identified as target devices for energy saving measures.

  The measure information generation unit 28 refers to the device attribute information shown in FIG. 4 and the user attribute information shown in FIG. 3, so that each user who belongs to the area 01 on the 3rd floor and has management authority for each target device. The user identification information is specified. Thereby, the user who can implement an energy saving measure in the area 01 of 3F is specified. Referring to FIG. 3, the department to which each user (for example, “UserID_104”, “UserID_105”) belongs is in area 01 on the 3rd floor. Also, referring to FIG. 4, these users have management rights of “PC — 0101” and “PC — 0102”. In addition, you may specify the user who can implement an energy saving measure based on the present position of each user, without using the information which shows the floor and area which are contained in user attribute information. In this case, the measure information generation unit 28 acquires the current position information from the mobile terminal device 60 of each user, and specifies each user who exists in the area 01 of 3F and has management authority for each target device.

  Then, the measure information generation unit 28 acquires from the measure information storage unit 20 an energy saving measure for each target device that matches the user's device operation level and is installed in the area 01 on the 3rd floor. For example, since “PC — 0101” and “PC — 0102” have the device type “Desktop PC”, according to the energy saving measure information shown in FIG. "PC power off at time" and "PC print settings optimization" are selected. These energy saving measures also satisfy the conditions of the user's device operation level.

  On the other hand, the prediction effect calculation unit 32 calculates the predicted reduction amount of each target device when each energy saving measure is implemented. For example, the prediction effect calculation unit 32 performs “PC — 0101” when energy saving measures “PC sleep setting implementation”, “PC power-off when returning home”, and “PC print setting optimization” are implemented, respectively. And the predicted reduction amount of “PC — 0102” is calculated.

  And the measure information generation part 28 calculates | requires the difference of the sum total of the power consumption of each target apparatus installed in the area 01 of 3F, and a warning value, and the sum total of the estimated reduction amount of each target apparatus is more than the said difference. Select energy-saving measure candidates to be provided to each user so as to increase. In the above example, the measure information generation unit 28 performs “PC sleep setting”, “PC sleep setting” so that the total predicted reduction amount of “PC — 0101” and “PC — 0102” is larger than the difference. An energy saving measure candidate to be provided to each user (“UserID_104”, “UserID_105”) is selected from “Power OFF” and “PC print setting optimization”.

  The measure information generation unit 28 may select all the energy saving measures that each user can implement for each target device as energy saving measure candidates to be provided to each user. In the above example, the measure information generation unit 28 performs all of “perform PC sleep setting”, “PC power OFF when returning home”, and “optimization of PC print settings” for each user (“UserID_104”). , “UserID_105”) may be selected as a candidate for energy saving measures.

  The communication unit 12 transmits a list of energy saving measure candidates to the mobile terminal device 60 of each user (“UserID_104”, “UserID_105”).

  In addition, when the energy saving measure candidate is duplicated by a plurality of users, the duplicate energy saving measure candidate may be provided to each user, or the energy saving measure candidate is duplicated so as not to be provided redundantly to a plurality of users. Energy saving measure candidates may be provided to only some users.

  The control unit 68 of the mobile terminal device 60 of each user causes the UI unit 66 to display a list of energy saving measure candidates transmitted from the energy saving measure providing apparatus 10. FIG. 16 shows an example of a list of energy saving measure candidates. The list shown in FIG. 16 is provided and displayed on the mobile terminal device 60 of the user (“UserID_104”). The list includes energy saving measure candidates that the user (“UserID_104”) can implement. A list of energy-saving measure candidates that can be implemented by the other user is also provided and displayed to the portable terminal device 60 of the other user.

  As described above, energy saving measures, target devices for energy saving measures, and users who can implement energy saving measures are specified so that the total power consumption of each device is less than the warning value, and energy is saved in the mobile terminal device 60 of the user. By providing measures, we can more actively achieve energy saving goals. For example, if the total amount of power consumption exceeds the warning value and requires urgent action, by providing users with energy-saving measures without waiting for acquisition requests from users, avoiding power shortages and more aggressively aiming for energy-saving Can be achieved.
