It is transmitted from 1 to the management server 100 and registered in the database 110. When the input information is transmitted from the communication terminal 310-1 to the management server 100, the identification information of the electric vehicle 300-1 (for example, the identification information shown in FIG. 4) is also transmitted from the communication terminal 310-1 to the management server 100. Will be sent. Here, when the identification information of the communication terminal 310-1 is registered as the identification information, the identification information of the communication terminal 310-1 is transmitted from the communication terminal 310-1 to the management server 100. The amount of electric power that the electric vehicles 300-1 to 300-3 and the communication terminals 310-1 to 10-3 can supply to each of the electric vehicles 300-1 to 300-3 (current remaining capacity of the battery). Is acquired by the communication terminals 310-13 to 10-3 at any time, and the acquired supplyable electric energy is transmitted from the communication terminals 310 to 1-310-3 to the management server 100 and registered in the database 110. good.

The detection unit 120 detects a power failure of each of the power demand systems 200-1 to 200-3 managed by each of the communication terminals 210-1 to 210-3. The detection unit 120 detects a power failure of each of the power demand systems 200-1 to 200-3 based on whether or not a predetermined signal is received from each of the power demand systems 200-1 to 200-3. For example, a signal that changes periodically is transmitted from each of the power demand systems 200-1 to 200-3, and when the change disappears, the detection unit 120 sets the power demand system 200-1 to 200-3. May be determined to have a power failure.

When the detection unit 120 detects a power failure of any of the power demand systems 200-1 to 200-3, the search unit 130 stores the power failure system 200-1 to 200 stored in the database 110. The power supply condition satisfying the power demand condition associated with the identification information given to -3 is searched and acquired from the database 110. For example, when the detection unit 120 detects a power failure of the power demand system 200-1, the search unit 130 together with the identification information stored in the database 110 and given to the power demand system 200-1 in which the power failure is detected.

Compares with the existing position of, and based on the result of the comparison, obtains the power supply condition that satisfies the power demand condition.

For example, the search unit 130 can see the required electric energy associated with the identification information of the electric power demand systems 200-1 to 200-3 for which the detection unit 120 has detected a power failure, and the electric energy demand systems 200-1 to 200-3. The existence position (first existence position) is read from the database 110. The search unit 130 reads from the database 110 the identification information of the power supply side associated with the supplyable electric energy equal to or greater than the read required electric energy. Then, the search unit 130 associates the read identification information with the one whose existing position (second existing position) of the electric vehicles 300-1 to 300-3 is the closest to the first existing position. The identification information is read from the database 110. In this way, the search unit 130 acquires the power supply condition satisfying the power demand condition of the power demand systems 200-1 to 200-3 in which the detection unit 120 detects the power failure. When the database 110 stores the time zone and period during which the electric vehicles 300-1 to 300-3 can supply electric power, the search unit 130 takes these into consideration when the electric vehicles 300-1 to 300-3 are stored. Search for. Here, the distance is not limited to a mere straight line distance between two points, but also includes the distance that the electric vehicles 300-1 to 300-3 move between the two points. When the distance is a distance, map information may be stored in the database 110, and the search unit 130 may calculate the distance between two points based on the map information. Further, the map information is not limited to the one stored in the database 110, and may be acquired by the search unit 130 at a predetermined timing from another system such as a site that distributes the map information. Furthermore, in addition to map information, road conditions are also acquired, and searches are made in consideration of road traffic regulation information, one-way traffic, right turn prohibition, speed limit, road conditions (number of lanes, road surface conditions, etc.), traffic congestion information, etc. The unit 130 may perform a search (calculation). Also, not only those that are close in distance, but also those that are close in time, that is, the electric vehicle 300-, which is the earliest time to reach the destination (electric power demand system 200-1 to 200-3) by moving between two points. The search unit 130 may search for the identification information of 1 to 300-3.

The notification unit 140 gives a predetermined notification to the communication terminals 310-1 to 10-3 that have transmitted the power supply condition acquired by the search unit 130. The notification unit 140 has transmitted the power supply conditions acquired by the search unit 130 to the power demand systems 200-1 to 200-3 in which the power failure has been detected. Go to -3.

Each of the communication terminals 310-1 to 10-3 is a second communication terminal that manages each of the electric vehicles 300-1 to 300-3. Each of the communication terminals 310-1 to 10-3 transmits the power supply condition to the management server 100 at a predetermined timing (for example, a predetermined cycle). Each of the communication terminals 310-1 to 10-3 may be a car navigation device mounted on each of the electric vehicles 300-1 to 300-3, or may be a power supplier (electric vehicle 300-1 to 300-3). It may be a mobile communication terminal such as a smartphone owned by a driver or the like, or a mobile PC such as a notebook PC. The communication terminals 310-1 to 10-3 acquire position information indicating their own existence position by using a GPS (Global Positioning System) function or the like, and transmit the acquired position information to the management server 100.

The power demand condition transmitted from is stored (step S1). Further, when the power supply condition input by the communication terminals 310 to 1-310-3 based on the operation received from the outside is transmitted to the management server 100, the database 110 of the management server 100 displays the communication terminals 310 to 1-310-3. The power supply condition transmitted from is stored (step S2). The process of step S1 and the process of step S2 are performed at a predetermined timing at any time. Further, the order of processing in steps S1 and S2 is not particularly limited.

The search unit 130 reads from the database 110 the identification information associated with the supplyable electric energy that satisfies the read required electric energy. Then, the search unit 130 obtains the identification information from the database 110 in which the existence position associated with the identification information is the closest distance from the existence position associated with the read required electric energy. Read (step S4). Subsequently, the notification unit 140 supplies power to the communication terminals 310-1 to 10-3 to which the identification information read by the search unit 130 is assigned, and the power demand system 200- in which the detection unit 120 detects a power failure. A predetermined notification indicating that the values are 1 to 200-3 is given (step S5).

FIG. 8 is a diagram showing an example of a screen display of the communication terminal 310-1 that has received the notification. As shown in FIG. 8, the communication terminal 310-1 displays a power supply location as a display for supplying power. In the example shown in FIG. 8, an address, a facility name, and a map indicating the location where power is supplied are displayed. By performing such a display, the power supplier who possesses the communication terminal 310-1 can recognize the place where the power is supplied.

As described above, in the present embodiment, the management server 100 searches for a power supply system having a power supply condition satisfying the power demand condition registered in advance, and the searched power supply system supplies power to the power demand system. Notification is given to the communication terminal that manages the power supply system. Therefore, appropriate power supply can be performed on the power supply side and the power supply side. When the search unit 130 searches for the power supply condition based on the power demand condition, the search unit considers the amount of power required from when the electric vehicle supplies power to the power demand system to when it returns to the original location. It may be the one that does.

By doing so, electric power is supplied to the electric vehicles 300-1 to 300-3 (the electric vehicles 300-1 to 300-3 are charged). The power generation system 500-1 to 500-3 may be a power storage system that stores electric power in advance, and may be a system that can supply electric power to the electric vehicles 300-1 to 300-3.

The management server 101 is the management server of the present invention and manages the entire power supply system.

FIG. 10 is a diagram showing an example of the internal configuration of the management server 101 shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 10, the management server 101 shown in FIG. 9 has a database 111, a detection unit 120, a search unit 131, and a notification unit 141. Note that FIG. 10 shows only the main components related to the present embodiment among the components included in the management server 101 shown in FIG. The detection unit 120 is the same as that in the first embodiment.

The database 111 stores a plurality of power demand conditions transmitted from each of the communication terminals 210-1 to 210-3 and a plurality of power supply conditions transmitted from each of the communication terminals 310-1 to 10-3. .. The power demand condition and the power supply condition are the same as those in the first embodiment. Further, the database 111 stores the existing positions (third existing positions) of the power generation systems 500-1 to 500-3. The method of registering the power demand condition and the power supply condition in the database 111 is the same as that of the first embodiment. Further, the method of registering the existence position of the power generation system 500-1 to 500-3 in the database 111 may be based on the information transmitted from the power generation system 500-1 to 500-3, or the management server. The administrator who manages 101 may register the database 110 based on the information acquired from the outside, and the registration method is not limited.

FIG. 11 is a diagram showing an example of the existence position of the power generation systems 500-1 to 500-3 stored in the database 111 shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 11, the database 111 shown in FIG. 10 stores the identification information and the existing position in association with each other. The identification information is unique identification information given in advance to the power generation systems 500-1 to 500-3. The identification information may be, for example, a telephone number of each of the power generation systems 500-1 to 500-3, or an e-mail address, a unique ID, and a power generation system 500-1 to 500-3 contracted to this system. It may be the identification information set at times. The existence position is information indicating the position where the power generation systems 500-1 to 500-3 exist (install). The existing position may be any information as long as the position can be identified on the map, and may be indicated by using latitude and longitude as shown in FIG. 11, for example. The existing position of the power generation system 500-1 to 500-3 and the existing position of the charging station that supplies the electric power generated by the power generation system 500-1 to 500-3 to the electric vehicles 300-1 to 300-3 are different. In this case, the existing position stored in the database 111 is preferably the existing position of the charging stand.

For example, as shown in FIG. 11, the identification information "G001" and the existence position "north latitude: ..., east longitude: ..." are stored in association with each other. This indicates that the latitude and longitude of the existence position of the power demand system to which the identification information "G001" is given is "north latitude: ..., east longitude: ...". Further, as shown in FIG. 11, the identification information "G002" and the existence position "north latitude: ..., east longitude: ..." are stored in association with each other. This indicates that the latitude and longitude of the existence position of the power demand system to which the identification information "G002" is given is "north latitude: ..., east longitude: ...". The existence position is not limited to the one indicated by using latitude and longitude, and may be indicated by using an address.

Further, in addition to the identification information and the existence position of the power generation system 500-1 to 500-3, the database 111 also describes the identification information and the existence position of the amount of power that can be supplied by the power generation system 500-1 to 500-3. It may be associated and stored.

When the detection unit 120 detects a power failure of any of the power demand systems 200-1 to 200-3, the search unit 131 stores the power failure system 200-1 to 200 stored in the database 111. The existing positions of the power demand systems 200-1 to 200-3 associated with the identification information of -3 are searched and acquired from the database 111. For example, when the detection unit 120 detects a power failure of the power demand system 200-1, the search unit 131 is associated with the identification information of the power demand system 200-1 in which the power failure is detected, which is stored in the database 111. Read out the existing position of the power demand system 200-1. In the search unit 131, among the electric vehicles 300-1 to 300-3 stored in the database 111, the location of the communication terminal 310-1 to 10-3 that manages the electric vehicles 300-1 to 300-3 is located. , The identification information of the one having the closest distance to the existing position of the read power demand system 200-1 (for example, the electric vehicle 300-1) is searched from the database 111 and read out. Further, the search unit 131 has a power generation system 500-1 to 500-3 stored in the database 111 whose existing position is the closest to the existing position of the read electric vehicle 300-1 (for example,). The power generation system 500-1) is searched and read from the database 111. Then, the search unit 131 identifies the power demand system 200-1 by determining the amount of power for charging that the electric vehicle 300-1 performs to satisfy the required power amount associated with the identification information of the power demand system 200-1. It is calculated based on the required electric energy associated with the information and the electric energy that can be supplied by the electric vehicle 300-1. At this time, the search unit 131 supplies the electric energy required for movement for the electric vehicle 300-1 to charge in the power generation system 500-1 and the electric energy in the electric vehicle 300-1 in the power demand system 200-1. The amount of power required for charging is calculated in consideration of the amount of power required for movement.

If the amount of power that can be supplied by the power generation systems 500-1 to 500-3 is limited and the amount of power is stored in the database 111, the search unit 131 may use the power demand to which the power is supplied. The power generation system 500-1 to 500-3 is searched based on the required electric energy of the systems 200-1 to 200-3 and the electric energy that can be supplied by the power generation system 500-1 to 500-3. Is also good.

The notification unit 141 gives a predetermined notification to the communication terminals 310-1 to 10-3 that manage the electric vehicles 300-1 to 300-3 to which the identification information searched by the search unit 131 is added. The notification unit 141 gives an instruction for charging the power generation system 500-1 to 500-3 searched by the search unit 131 and supplying electric power to the electric power demand system 200-1 to 200-3 in which a power failure is detected. This is performed on the communication terminals 310-1 to 10-3 that manage the electric vehicles 300-1 to 300-3 to which the identification information searched by the search unit 131 is assigned. At this time, the notification unit 141 also notifies the existence position of the power generation systems 500-1 to 500-3 searched by the search unit 131. When the notification unit 141 makes such a notification, the communication terminals 310-1 to 10-3 to which the notification has been made can recognize where to charge and where to go to supply power. .. Further, if the notification unit 141 also notifies the required charge amount, the communication terminal 310-1 to 10-3 recognizes how much charge should be performed in the power generation system 500-1 to 500-3. can do.

In the communication terminals 310-1 to 10-3 notified by the notification unit 141, the screen as shown in FIG. 8 is displayed, and the position and map of the power generation system (charging stand) for charging are displayed. To. As a result, it is possible to guide the user to the nearest charging station.

The power supply method in the power supply system shown in FIG. 9 will be described below. FIG. 12 is a flowchart for explaining an example of a power supply method in the power supply system shown in FIG.

First, when the power generation system 500-1 to 500-3 transmits the identification information previously assigned to the power generation systems 500-1 to 500-3 and their existing positions, the database 110 of the management server 100 generates power. The identification information transmitted from the systems 500-1 to 500-3 is stored in association with the existing position (step S11). Further, when the power demand condition input by the communication terminals 210-1 to 210-3 based on the operation received from the outside is transmitted to the management server 101, the database 111 of the management server 101 causes the communication terminals 210-1 to 210-3. The power demand condition transmitted from the server is stored (step S12). Further, when the power supply condition input by the communication terminals 310 to 1-310-3 based on the operation received from the outside is transmitted to the management server 101, the database 111 of the management server 101 causes the communication terminals 310 to 1-310-3. The power supply condition transmitted from is stored (step S13). The process of step S12 and the process of step S13 are performed at a predetermined timing at any time. Further, the order of processing in steps S11 to S13 is not particularly limited.

After that, when the detection unit 120 detects a power failure of the power demand systems 200-1 to 200-3 based on the signal transmitted from the power demand systems 200-1 to 200-3 (step S14), the search unit 131 Searches and reads out from the database 111 the existence position of the power demand system 200-1 to 200-3 associated with the identification information of the power demand system 200-1 to 200-3 in which the power failure is detected. Subsequently, the search unit 131 of the communication terminals 310-1 to 10-3 that manage the electric vehicles 300-1 to 300-3 among the electric vehicles 300-1 to 300-3 stored in the database 111. The existing position is searched from the database 111 and read out from the database 111 at the distance closest to the existing position of the read power demand systems 200-1 to 200-3 (step S15). Further, the search unit 131 is located at a distance closest to the existing position of the read electric vehicle 300-1 to 300-3 among the power generation systems 500-1 to 500-3 stored in the database 111. A thing is searched from the database 111 and read (step S16). Then, the search unit 131 determines the amount of electric power for charging that the electric vehicles 300-1 to 300-3 perform to satisfy the required electric energy associated with the identification information of the electric power demand system 200-1 to 200-3. It is calculated based on the required electric energy associated with the identification information of the electric power demand systems 200-1 to 200-3 and the electric energy that can be supplied by the electric vehicles 300-1 to 300-3 (step S17). Subsequently, the notification unit 141 supplies the power supply location and its supply to the communication terminals 310-1 to 10-3 that manage the electric vehicles 300-1 to 300-3 to which the identification information searched by the search unit 131 is assigned. A predetermined notification indicating the location of the power generation system for the purpose and the amount of power to be charged by the power generation system is given (step S18).

Then, the communication terminals 310-1 to 10-3 that received the notification perform a predetermined display. Upon receiving the notification, the communication terminals 310-1 to 10-3 display the location of the power supply, the location of the power generation system for the supply, and the amount of power to be charged by the power generation system as the display for supplying the power. The display of the location where power is supplied and the location of the power generation system may be the same as those shown in FIG. By performing such a display, the power supplier possessing the communication terminals 310-1 to 10-3 can recognize the location of supplying power, the location of the power generation system for charging power, and the amount of power to be charged. it can.

As described above, in the present embodiment, the management server 101 searches for the power supply system existing at a distance close to the power demand system in which the power failure is detected, and searches for the power generation system existing at a distance close to the searched power supply system. To do. Then, the management server 101 notifies the communication terminal that manages the power supply system that the searched power supply system charges the power generation system and supplies power to the power demand system. Therefore, appropriate power supply can be performed on the power supply side and the power supply side.

In this embodiment, the management server searches for an electric vehicle that exists at a distance close to the power demand system that requires power supply, and searches for a power generation system that exists at a distance close to the searched electric vehicle, and is searched. We explained the form in which the electric vehicle is charged by the searched power generation system and then supplied with power to the power demand system. Not limited to this, an electric vehicle having a small amount of electric energy to be charged may be searched for, and the searched electric vehicle may be charged by the power generation system and then supplied with electric power to the electric power demand system.

In addition, if the management server or communication network cannot receive commercial power supply due to some reason such as a power outage, the management server or communication network is operated using the backup power supply owned by the operation side, which is generally done. Anything that lets you do it.
