The power consumption calculation system is a system that calculates the electricity charge of the elevator based on the design data. For example, an elevator power consumption calculation system is used by a supplier after a business negotiation has been concluded between an elevator consumer and a supplier. For example, consumers of elevators are designers of buildings in which elevators are installed. For example, an elevator supplier is a manufacturer of elevator equipment applied to a building.

In this example, the elevator or the design of the building to which the elevator is applied is performed by the BIM system (BIM: Building Information Modeling). For example, an elevator or a building designer designs using CAD software (CAD: Computer-Aided Design) or the like corresponding to a BIM system. In the BIM system, for example, the information of the integrated BIM model including the information of the building is shared with a plurality of contractors involved in the design of the building. For example, a plurality of vendors include a building designer and a manufacturer of individual equipment of a building such as an elevator.

For example, the information of the integrated BIM model includes data on the three-dimensional shape of buildings and equipment, data on manufacturing specifications such as parts and materials of each part, and data on coordination between contractors such as construction time. In this respect, the construction of the integrated BIM model corresponds to the virtual construction of the building on the data. In the BIM system, the relevance and consistency of each part of the building can be confirmed based on the integrated BIM model.

For example, an integrated BIM model is constructed by combining a plurality of BIM models. Multiple BIM models are data of building elements added to a BIM system project. For example, a plurality of BIM models are data representing structural materials of a building or individual equipment.

In the BIM system, elevator data is represented by the BIM model. The BIM model of the elevator is incorporated into the BIM data of the building that does not include the elevator. For example, an elevator BIM model is constructed by combining BIM parts of elevator parts. A BIM part is data of a part such as a part or a part constituting a BIM model.

The power consumption calculation unit 13 statistically calculates the average population of each room on each floor based on the information on the usage and floor area of each room on each floor of the building from the specification information included in the BIM model of the building. It is calculated by various methods. The power consumption calculation unit 13 calculates the activation frequency of the elevator 1 so that the number of floors is proportional to the average population of each room on each floor. At this time, the usage corresponds to the attributes of buildings such as office buildings, houses, department stores, shopping malls, and schools.

For example, the power consumption calculation unit 13 is based on the information on the elevating process included in the BIM model of the building, the load capacity included in the BIM model of the elevator 1, the method of the hoisting machine, the rated speed, and the number of units. The power consumption when the elevator 1 is started is calculated.
