Description

  The present invention relates to a point system for electric power consumers that gives points to electric power consumers.

  The power equipment including the power generation equipment of the electric power company (power supply side) is power according to the power at the time of the rise so that the power supply will not stop even if the total power use rises temporarily. The capacity must be able to be supplied, which may result in excessive power equipment. On the other hand, if the consumer suppresses the amount of power used, the amount of power generation can be reduced, so that excess power facilities can be suppressed. In other words, if the consumer is interested in the amount of electric power used and tries to save energy, excess power facilities can be suppressed, and power generation costs and the like can be reduced.

  To encourage consumers to pay attention to the amount of power used, compare the actual power usage with the planned power usage received from the customer at the time of the contract for the customer who has contracted with a flat-rate electricity charge. A point system is known that gives points that can be exchanged for various products and services to consumers when the amount of power used is lower than the planned power usage (see, for example, Patent Document 1). .)

JP 2007-157080 A

  By the way, in recent years when so-called liberalization of electric power is progressing, each electric power company is expected to more appropriately optimize electric power charges (lower charge) and to improve and diversify services. On the other hand, each consumer selects the most appropriate electric power company based on his / her own power usage mode, the charge menu and service provided by each electric power company, and optimizes the electric power used (energy saving / It is expected to save energy).

  In this way, it is expected that consumers will be more interested in the use of electric power and electric power companies than ever before, and will be involved in (participating in) power supply and demand.

  When the customer M selects “confirm point history”, the number of points given and the grant history are displayed. The result notification task 316 notifies not only the point grant result but also the result of ticket lottery and the delivery status of the product. If the result notification is frequently transmitted to the communication terminal 4 of the consumer M, the consumer M will be troublesome to confirm the notification. For example, it may be transmitted once a day or every few days. .

  Next, the operation of the point system 1 for electric power consumers having such a configuration, the point method for electric power consumers by the point system 1 for electric power consumers, and the like will be described.

  First, as shown in FIG. 11, in the web server 3, the grade acquisition task 311 is started and the grade information of the team C is obtained (step S1). The score acquisition task 311 transmits a request for score information to the team web server 5 after the match of the team C ends based on the match schedule DB 35 (step S1a). The grade acquisition task 311 receives the latest grade information transmitted from the team web server 5 in response to the grade request, and stores it in the memory 32 (step S1b).

  The point management task 312 performs point management based on the latest grade information (step S2). In this point management, the point management task 312 specifies the number of points corresponding to the grade information from the point condition DB 34, updates the customer DB 33 based on the specified number of points, and gives points to the customer M.

  Thereafter, when the power usage amount and the power charge for the current month are fixed, for example, a meter reading notification is transmitted from the power usage server 2 to the web server 3 (step S3), and the usage point task 314 is activated (step S4). Points are awarded to all customers M based on the actual power consumption (electricity charge) for the current month.

  Further, the result notification task 316 is activated (step S5), and the point acquisition status is transmitted to each customer M by mail. Then, when the customer M accesses the link URL added to the mail and performs a predetermined operation, the my page 62 shown in FIG. 5 is displayed on the communication terminal 4 via the login page 61 shown in FIG.

  In addition, when the predetermined event result is included in the grade information acquired by the grade acquisition task 311 (step S1c), the lottery task 313 is a demand to which points are given according to the conditions stored in the point condition DB 34. The house M is selected at random (step S6). The point management task 312 performs point management for giving points to the selected customer M (step S7). Thereafter, as described above, the point acquisition status is transmitted to the customer M by e-mail.

  As shown in FIG. 12, when the customer M accesses the web server 3 to exchange points for goods (step S10), the point exchange task 315 is activated on the web server 3 (step S11). ). The point exchange task 315 causes the communication terminal 4 to display the watching ticket selection page 66 shown in FIG. 9 and the team goods selection page 67 shown in FIG. 10 through the point exchange page 65 shown in FIG. The customer M is selected. The point exchange task 315 executes a providing process for providing the selected product to the customer M when the exchange of points and products is operated by the communication terminal 4 (step S12).

  When an application for a watching ticket is made using points (S13), the point exchanging task 315 randomly determines whether or not to give a watching ticket to the applied customer M (step S14). ), If it is determined to be granted, a watching ticket providing process is executed (step S12). When the result is that a watching ticket is not given to the applied customer M, the result notification task 316 is activated (step S5), and the result is transmitted to the customer M by mail. Furthermore, the point management task 312 updates the customer DB 33 so that the number of points used in the point exchange task 315 is subtracted from the points owned by the customer M.

  Thus, according to the point system 1 for electric power consumers and the point method for electric power consumers, points corresponding to the results of the team C, which is a local sports team, are given to the consumer M. It is possible to excite the interest of the point, and using the interest for the point, it is possible to raise interest in the electric power company that grants the point and the electric power usage that the electric power company uses. . Further, since the result information to which points are given includes the victory or defeat of Team C, the annual results, the results of predetermined events, etc., points are given according to various grades. Therefore, the interest of the customer M with respect to point acquisition can be excited.

  Moreover, when the result of the predetermined event is included in the grade information, the lottery is performed and the points are given to the customer M. Therefore, the interest of the customer M for the point acquisition can be increased. Furthermore, since the score information is acquired based on the game schedule DB 35, the latest score information can be acquired automatically, that is, without delay, and points can be given quickly based on the score information. It is possible to excite the interest of the customer M for acquiring points.

  In addition, since the given points are notified to the customer M, the customer M can immediately confirm the points acquired based on the results of the team C, and the interest of the customer M for the point acquisition can be confirmed. It can be excited. Furthermore, since points are given to the consumer M not only according to the points according to the results of the team C but also according to the amount of power used, make the consumer M aware of the power usage closely related to the points. Can do.

  In addition, among the point members to whom points are given by the usage point task 314, only the customer M who is subscribed to the team support menu, that is, the customer M who is interested in the results of the team C, will receive the results of the team C. Points can be awarded. In this way, the customer M who is interested in the results of the team C has a high probability of having strong interest in the points acquired accordingly, so the power company and the power company through the points themselves Can arouse interest in the amount of power used.

  Moreover, since the point exchange task 315 for exchanging points for goods is provided, the interest to store points can be given to the consumer M, and the electric power company and the electric power company can exchange the points through the points. It can arouse interest in the amount of power used by itself.
