Each of the embodiments described below shows a preferred specific example of the present invention. The numerical values, shapes, materials, constituent elements, arrangement positions and connection forms of the constituent elements, steps, order of steps, and the like shown in the following embodiments are merely examples, and are not intended to limit the present invention. The invention is specified by the claims. Therefore, among the constituent elements in the following embodiments, constituent elements that are not described in the independent claims indicating the highest concept of the present invention are not necessarily required to achieve the object of the present invention. It will be described as constituting a preferred form.

[About demand response (DR)]
FIG. 1 is a diagram for explaining a demand response.

  As shown in FIG. 1, when power supply and demand is tight, the power company 1 issues a DR to the aggregator 2 to request power reduction. In the DR, the aggregator 2 is notified of the DR implementation time and the requested reduced power.

  In response to the DR issued by the electric power company 1, the aggregator 2 issues a DR to the customers 3 (such as customers A and B) managed by the aggregator 2. That is, the reduced power requested by the power company 1 is distributed to the plurality of consumers 3 and a DR is issued for each consumer 3. It is assumed that the power reduction when the customer 3 participates in DR is predetermined in the contract. This contract is concluded between the consumer 3 and the aggregator 2 or between the consumer 3 and the electric power company 1. Hereinafter, the reduced power set in the contract is referred to as “contract reduced power”. The contract reduction power is power requested to be reduced by the contract based on the baseline power during the DR implementation time.

  In response to the DR issued by the aggregator 2, the customer 3 stops an apparatus that consumes power, such as an air conditioner, or generates power using an internal combustion power generator such as a gas generator during the DR execution time. As a result, the power received from the power system is reduced. The consumer 3 notifies the aggregator 2 of the reduced received power (hereinafter referred to as “reduced power”).

  The aggregator 2 totals the reduced power of the plurality of consumers 3 and notifies the power company 1 of the total value of the reduced power.

  The electric power company 1 receives a notification of the total value of the reduced power from the aggregator 2, determines an incentive (reward) based on the notified total value of the reduced power and the requested reduced power, and sends the determined incentive to the aggregator 2. pay. For example, the power company 1 may pay the aggregator 2 a basic incentive and a pay-as-you-go incentive proportional to the total value of the reduced power when the total value of the reduced power exceeds the requested reduction power.

The aggregator 2 receives a part of the incentive paid from the power company 1 as an incentive for the aggregator 2 and distributes the remaining incentive to the consumers 3. The incentive that the aggregator 2 pays to the customer 3 may be calculated by, for example, a metered amount incentive shown in Equation 1.
Usage-based incentive = Reduced power amount from baseline power during DR execution time [kWh] × unit price A [yen / kWh]

  The metered incentive is an incentive that is paid in proportion to the received power actually reduced in the DR implementation time. The amount of power reduction from the baseline power during the DR implementation time is calculated by integrating the power reduction from the baseline power during the DR implementation time during the DR implementation time.

Further, the incentive paid by the aggregator 2 to the customer 3 may be calculated by, for example, a basic incentive shown in Expression 2.
Basic incentive = Contract reduction power [kW] x Unit price B [yen / kW] (Formula 2)

  The basic incentive is an incentive paid when the success condition of the DR is satisfied. For example, if the DR success condition is to reduce the received power of 70% or more of the contract reduction power during the DR implementation time, the customer who has reduced the received power of 70% or more of the contract reduction power during the DR implementation time 3 is paid basic incentive.

For example, in the first 10 minutes from the start of DR, when received power is reduced by 70% or more of contract reduction power, for example, a bonus incentive shown in Formula 3 may be paid in addition to the basic incentive. .
Bonus incentive = Contract reduction power [kW] x Unit price C [yen / kW] (Equation 3)

  The customer 3 who could not satisfy the success condition of the DR may not be able to receive either the basic incentive or the pay-as-you-go incentive from the aggregator 2, and the customer 3 pays the aggregator 2 with money. You may make it pay penalty.

  Further, the customer 3 that satisfies the DR success condition may be able to receive both basic incentive and pay-as-you-go incentive payments from the aggregator 2.

[About customer installation facilities]

  The instrument panel 64 monitors the charge / discharge power in the storage battery 61 and the power generated by the solar power generator 62 or the internal combustion power generator 63.

  The energy management device 30 receives the DR issued by the server 20 of the aggregator 2. Further, the energy management device 30 receives the generated power (hereinafter referred to as “power generation amount”) in the power generation facility 60 from the instrument panel 64 of the power generation facility 60. Further, the energy management device 30 receives power (hereinafter referred to as “amount of received power”) received by the factory 71 from the power company 1 from a power receiving meter 72 of a consumer of the demand facility 70. Based on the received power generation amount and the received power amount, and the incentive conditions that the customer 3 acquires for the DR, the energy management device 30 acquires a provisional incentive (hereinafter, “provisional incentive”) acquired during the DR implementation. Is calculated). The energy management device 30 displays the calculated provisional incentive on the display screen of the display device 52.

  The energy management device 30 desirably has an EMS (Energy Management System) server function for controlling the operation of the power generation facility 60 and the demand facility 70 in addition to the function of calculating the provisional incentive.

FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing a configuration of the energy management device 30.

  The reduction request receiving unit 32 receives a DR request from the server 20 via the communication I / F unit 31.

  The input receiving unit 33 receives an operation input of the keyboard 51 and the like by the user.

  The demand prediction unit 34 collects the actual value of the power generation amount in the power generation facility 60 from the instrument panel 64. That is, the demand prediction unit 34, from the instrument panel 64, the actual value of the charge / discharge power of the storage battery 61, the actual value of the generated power of the solar power generator 62, and the actual value of the generated power of the internal combustion power generator 63, To get. Further, the demand prediction unit 34 acquires the actual value of the amount of power received from the power company 1 of the factory 71 from the power receiving meter 72 of the consumer. The demand prediction unit 34 calculates a demand prediction value that is a prediction value of the power demand in the demand facility 70 based on the acquired actual value of the generated power amount and the received power amount. The calculation method of the demand prediction value is not the main point of the present application, and a known technique can be used. For this reason, the detailed description is abbreviate | omitted. For example, the demand forecast value may be calculated by correcting the actual power demand value for each past day of the week based on weather data or the like. The demand prediction unit 34 stores the calculated demand prediction value in the storage device 40.

  When the demand prediction value is stored in the storage device 40 in advance, the demand prediction unit 34 may acquire the demand prediction value by reading the demand prediction value from the storage device 40.

  Based on the demand forecast value calculated or acquired by the demand forecasting unit 34, the control plan creation unit 35 relates to predetermined constraint conditions (constraint conditions regarding input / output power of each power device 61 to 63, constraint conditions regarding fuel consumption, and supply-demand balance). A control plan for each time step (t) is created by optimizing a predetermined objective function under a constraint condition, a constraint condition related to electricity charges and gas charges, and the like.

  The power device control unit 36 transmits an instruction to each power device 61 to 63 or the instrument panel 64 via the communication I / F unit 31 based on the control plan created by the control plan creation unit 35. The power devices 61 to 63 are controlled.

  The power amount acquisition unit 37 acquires the power generation amount in the power generation facility 60 from the instrument panel 64 via the communication I / F unit 31. The power amount acquisition unit 37 acquires the amount of power received by the factory 71 from the power company 1 from the power receiving meter 72 of the consumer installed in the demand facility 70.

  The incentive calculation unit 38 calculates the provisional incentive acquired during the DR implementation based on the power generation amount and the power reception amount acquired by the power amount acquisition unit 37 and the incentive condition acquired by the customer 3 for the DR. . Here, it is assumed that the incentive condition is stored in the storage device 40 in advance.

For example, it is assumed that any one of the following conditions 1 to 3 is stored in the storage device 40 as an incentive condition.
<Condition 1>
Pay a pay-as-you-go incentive (Equation 1).
<Condition 2>
The basic incentive (formula 2) is paid when the DR success condition (reducing received power of 70% or more of contract reduction power in the DR execution time) is satisfied.
<Condition 3>
In addition to the condition 2, when the received power of 70% or more of the contract reduction power is reduced in the first 10 minutes from the start of the DR, a bonus incentive (formula 3) is paid.

  However, the incentive conditions are not limited to these. For example, when power generation is performed in the power generation facility 60, an incentive may be paid for the power generation amount.

  Further, the incentive calculation unit 38 tentatively achieves the reduction power requested by the DR based on the power generation amount and the power reception amount acquired by the power amount acquisition unit 37 (hereinafter referred to as “provisional achievement rate”). Is calculated.

For example, the incentive calculation unit 38 calculates the provisional achievement rate according to the following Equation 4.
Provisional achievement rate = (actual value of reduced power amount / target reduced power amount) x 100 (%) (Equation 4)

  Here, the target reduction power amount is calculated by integrating the reduction power in the DR execution time. In addition, the actual value of the reduced power amount is calculated by integrating the reduced power from the baseline power from the start of DR to the present.

  The storage device 40 includes an HDD (Hard Disk Drive), a nonvolatile memory, a volatile memory, or the like, and stores various types of information such as incentive conditions.

[Provisional incentive and provisional achievement display processing]
FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing the provisional incentive and provisional achievement rate display processing executed by the energy management apparatus.
The energy management device 30 stands by until the DR execution time starts (S1).

  When the DR execution time starts (YES in S1), the incentive calculation unit 38 reads the incentive condition from the storage device 40 (S2). For example, the incentive condition is a combination of the above-described condition 1 and condition 2, and the unit price A in the pay-as-you-go incentive under condition 1 is 100,000 yen / kWh. In addition, it is assumed that the basic incentive paid when the DR of Condition 2 is successful is 5 million yen.

  The power amount acquisition unit 37 acquires the power generation amount in the power generation facility 60 from the instrument panel 64 via the communication I / F unit 31 (S3). In addition, when the incentive for power generation is not obtained, the process of step S3 may be omitted.

  The power amount acquisition unit 37 acquires the power reception amount in the demand facility 70 from the power reception meter 72 of the consumer via the communication I / F unit 31 (S4).

  The incentive calculation unit 38 calculates a provisional incentive based on the acquired power generation amount and power reception amount (S5). For example, the incentive calculating unit 38 calculates a provisional incentive by calculating a metered incentive from the start of DR to the present according to Equation 1.

  The incentive calculation unit 38 calculates a provisional achievement rate based on the acquired power generation amount and power reception amount (S6). An example of calculating the provisional achievement rate is as shown in Equation 4.

  The display control unit 39 displays the calculated provisional incentive and provisional achievement rate on the display screen of the display device 52 (S7).

  The energy management apparatus 30 repeatedly performs the processes after step S3 until the DR execution time ends (S8).

[Display example]
FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an example of a demand response monitoring screen showing a provisional incentive and a provisional achievement rate displayed in the display process (step S7 in FIG. 4).

On the demand response monitoring screen, a graph 100, a column 105, a column 106, and a table 107 are displayed. The graph 100 shows the change over time of the received power and the change over time of the provisional acquisition amount that is a provisional incentive. A column 105 shows a provisional acquisition amount, and a column 106 shows a provisional achievement rate. Further, the table 107 shows details of demand response including incentive conditions.
As shown in Table 107, the DR execution time is from 16:30 to 17:00.

  The horizontal axis of the graph 100 indicates time, and the vertical axis indicates power and money. Baseline power 103 is set to 1200 kW. The reduction power required in the DR implemented from 16:30 to 17:00 is 350 kW. That is, the target power 102 of the received power during the DR execution time is 850 kW (= 1200 kW−350 kW).

  The provisional acquisition amount 104 is a cumulative value of a metered amount incentive calculated according to Equation 1 when the difference between the baseline power 103 and the received power 101 is reduced power. The column 105 also shows the provisional acquisition amount 104 as a numerical value.

  FIG. 6 is a diagram showing another example of the demand response monitoring screen showing the provisional incentive and the provisional achievement rate displayed in the display process (step S7 in FIG. 4).

  On the demand response monitoring screen, a graph 100A, a column 105, a column 106, and a table 107 are displayed. The column 105, the column 106, and the table 107 are the same as those shown in FIG.

  A graph 100 </ b> A shows a provisional achievement rate 108 instead of the provisional acquisition amount 104 in the graph 100. Accordingly, the vertical axis on the right side of the graph 100A indicates the provisional achievement rate instead of the amount.

  During the DR implementation time, the received power 101 and the provisional acquisition amount 104 or provisional achievement rate 108 change with the passage of time. For this reason, the user can grasp these temporal transitions. Thereby, the motivation of electric power reduction can be given with respect to the acquired incentive or the user with low achievement rate.
