Abstract
Description
例えば、電力等のエネルギの使用状態から、各種の機器が正常に動作しているかどうかを判断したり、エネルギを使用している顧客の生活状況を判断し、省エネを促進したり、孤独死などの生活異変をいち早く察知したりすることができる。
その結果、システム運用のためのコストが大きいし、各動作状態監視装置を取り付けるための作業負担も大きい。
本実施形態に係るエネルギ消費監視システムによるサービスの提供を受ける顧客の宅内には、電力消費を監視するための測定器1が設置されている。
外部から顧客の宅内に供給される電力は、主幹電路2aを経て、分電盤により分岐電路2bに分配され、負荷2cに供給される。
測定器1によって測定された電力消費量に係る情報(以下、「電力消費量情報」という)は、インターネット等のネットワークを介して監視装置3に送信される(S2)。
監視装置3は、電力消費量情報に基づき、各負荷2cによってどれだけの電力が消費されたかを特定した上、負荷2cごとに、その消費量が、予め設定された推奨値の範囲内か否かを判別する(S3)。なお、推奨値とは、省エネ等の観点から、好ましい又は適切と判断される電力消費量であり、適宜に設定することができる。
この結果、ある負荷2cの電力消費量が、推奨値の範囲にない場合には、その判別結果が監視装置3から測定器1に送信される(S4)。
これに応じて測定器1は、予め備え付けられた報知信号を発信して、当該判別結果を顧客に報知する(S5)。
また、監視装置3は、ある負荷2cの電力消費量が、推奨値の範囲になかった場合に、推奨される負荷2cの広告情報を、顧客端末4に送信する(S6)。
本実施形態に係るエネルギ消費監視システムは、負荷2cの電力消費量を測定する測定器1と、負荷2cの使用者であり、本実施形態に係るエネルギ消費監視システムによるサービスを享受する顧客が利用する顧客端末4と、測定器1から電力消費量情報を収集する監視装置3とが、インターネット等のネットワークNWを介して、相互に通信可能に構成されている。
この測定器1は、CPU(Central Processing Unit)、CPUが実行するコンピュータプログラムや所定のデータを記憶するRAM(Random Access Memory)などにより、測定部11、報知信号発信部12、通信処理部13からなる各機能ブロックを構成する。
出力部は、電気を引き込むための引き込み線の電圧に対応する検出電圧と、引き込み線を流れる電流に対応する検出電流とを出力する。また、変換部は、電力に比例するパルス信号を生成し、このパルス信号を算出部に送る。算出部は、パルス信号を計数して、使用された電力の指示値を算出する。
ここで電力消費量は、図3に示されるように、分岐電路2bごとに時系列にしたがって測定され、どの分岐電路2bにおいて、いつどれだけの量の電力が消費されたかを把握することができる。
これにより、顧客は、自身が使用している負荷2cの電力消費量が、推奨されるものかどうかを把握することができる。
この通信処理部は例えば、監視装置3に対し、分岐電路2bを識別する電路識別情報と共に、測定部11によって生成された電力消費量情報を送信したり、負荷2cによる電力消費量が、予め設定された推奨消費量を上回る場合に、監視装置3から、これを報知する報知信号の発信指示を受信したりする。
この監視装置3は、CPU(Central Processing Unit)、CPUが実行するコンピュータプログラム、コンピュータプログラムや所定のデータを記憶するRAM(Random Access Memory)やROM(Read Only Memory)、及びハードディスクドライブなどの外部記憶装置により、負荷特定情報記憶部301、推奨消費量情報記憶部302、広告情報記憶部303、対応情報記憶部304、顧客情報記憶部305、消費量情報記憶部306、区画特定部307、負荷特定部308、判別処理部309、広告情報抽出部310、通信処理部311からなる各機能ブロックを構成する。
ある区画に対し、当該区画に一設置されることが一般的な負荷2cを関連付けておくことで、ある区画で電力が消費された場合に当該電力が消費された負荷2cを絞り込むことができる。例えば、「居間」の区画に対し、「エアコン」や「テレビ」といった負荷2cを関連付けておくことで、電力が「居間」で使われた場合には、当該電力が、「居間」と関連付けられた「エアコン」や「テレビ」などの負荷2cによって消費されたものと絞り込むことができる。
また、一般的な使用時間帯とは、負荷2cが一般的に使用される時間帯である。例えば、エアコンについて、一般的に使用される時期である夏および冬の時間帯として、6月から9月、及び12月から3月といったように設定することができる。
ここで、推奨消費量とは、省エネ等の観点から、望ましいと考えられる電力消費量の値であり、適宜に設定することができる。
広告情報は、静止画や動画などの電子データであるが、特にそのファイル形式等は限定されない。
この対応情報記憶部304には例えば、図5に示されるように、顧客を識別する顧客識別情報ごとに、顧客宅の分岐電路2bを識別する電路識別情報と、区画を識別する区画識別情報とが関連付けて記憶されている。
この顧客情報記憶部305には例えば、顧客を識別する顧客識別情報、顧客の氏名又は名称、顧客に連絡を取るために必要となる住所や電話番号、あるいはメールアドレス等の連絡先情報が記憶されている。
この消費量情報記憶部306には例えば、図6に示されるように、顧客識別情報と、負荷特定部307によって特定された負荷2cに係る負荷情報と、当該負荷2cによる電力消費量に情報とを相互に関連付けて記憶することができる。
測定器1によって測定された電力消費量に係る情報として図3の場合を例にとると(図3中、囲い線Aで示した部分で例示するが、他の部分も同様である)、経時的な電力消費量の推移のうち、電力消費量の立ち上がり部分Yを抽出する。そして、その前後の変化量(y2-y1)を算出し、これを負荷2cの電力消費量とみなす。この際、負荷2cの起動時に瞬間的に発生する突入電力による変化分(y3-y2)を除くことにより、より正確な電力消費量を算出する。
また、使用時間帯は、立ち上がり部分Yにおける時間帯を、負荷2cの使用時間帯として抽出する。
例えば、前後において、一定割合以上の電力消費量の増加が認められた部分を、立ち上がり部分Yとして抽出する。また、立ち上がり部分Yの直後に、一定割合以上の電力消費量の減少が認められる場合、当該一定割合以上で電力消費量が減少する部分は、突入電力によるものとして除外し、減少の割合が一定割合以下になった部分の数値y2を、変化後の電力消費量として扱う。
これにより例えば、負荷特定情報記憶部301において、「エアコン」(負荷2c)に対し、区画として「居間」、使用時間帯として「6月~9月、12月~3月」、電力消費量として「300W~800W」が関連付けて記憶されていた場合に、区画識別情報と電力消費量情報から、「居間」(区画)で、「8月1日AM10時~PM11時」(使用時間帯)に、「500W」(電力消費量)の電力消費があったものと把握されると、当該電力はエアコンによって消費されたものと特定することができる。
この通信処理部311は例えば、測定器1から電力消費量情報を受信したり、測定器1に対して報知信号を送信したりする。また、顧客端末4に対して、消費量情報記憶部306に記憶された消費量情報を送信したりする。
この顧客端末4は例えば、いわゆるパソコンなどにより構成することができ、入出力処理部41、通信処理部42からなる機能ブロックを有し、監視装置3とインターネット等のネットワークNWを介して通信可能に構成されている。
この通信処理部42は例えば、監視装置3から、負荷2cごとの電力消費量に係る情報を受信したりする。
まず、測定器1は、測定部11により、分岐電路2bごとの電力消費量を測定する(S101)。
分岐電路2bごとに測定された電力消費量は、分岐電路2bを識別する電路識別情報と関連付けられ、電力消費量情報として監視装置3に送信される(S102)。なお、この際、顧客を識別するための顧客識別情報が併せて送信される。
なお、電力の消費量情報は一定時間分、測定器1に蓄積してから、所定のタイミングで監視装置3に送信するようにしてもよいし、逐次送信するようにしてもよい。
なお、この負荷特定部308により負荷2cを特定する処理の詳細は、後に詳述する。
この結果、当該負荷2cの電力消費量が、推奨消費量の範囲内にないときは、測定器1に対して、当該状況を顧客に報知させるための報知信号の発信を指示する命令情報が送信される(S106)。
一方、当該負荷2cの電力消費量が、推奨消費量の範囲内であったときは、そのまま処理を終了する。
以上により、顧客は、自分が使っている負荷2cが、推奨される消費量の範囲内で動作しているかどうかを把握することができる。また、推奨される消費量の範囲内にないときは、これに替わる負荷2cの情報を入手することができる。
まず、区画特定部307により、対応情報記憶部304を参照して、測定器1から受信した顧客識別情報及び電路識別情報と関連付けて記憶されている区画識別情報を特定する(S201)。
具体的には、経時的な電力消費量の推移から、電力消費量が、予め設定した一定の割合以上で急激に上昇する立ち上がり部分を特定する(S202)。そして、その前後の変化量を算出し、これを負荷2cの電力消費量とみなす(S203)。
また、使用時間帯は、立ち上がり部分における時間を、負荷2cの使用時間帯として抽出する。
以上の本実施形態に係るエネルギ消費監視システムによれば、負荷2cごとに装置を取り付けることなく、負荷2cごとのエネルギ消費量を測定することができる。
なお、本実施形態に係るエネルギ消費監視システムは、負荷2cの電力消費量を特定して、顧客に当該情報や広告情報等を送信する前述の処理に加え、顧客に異常がないか否かを検知して、異常が発生していると判断された場合に、予め決められた連絡先に当該異常を通知する。
なそ、測定器1と顧客端末4の構成は、先述と同様である。
この連絡先端末6は例えば、いわゆるコンピュータにより構成することができ、入手力処理部61、通信処理部62を有する。
この通信処理部62は例えば、監視装置5から、顧客の異常に関する警告情報を受信したりする。
この監視装置5は、CPU(Central Processing Unit)、CPUが実行するコンピュータプログラム、コンピュータプログラムや所定のデータを記憶するRAM(Random Access Memory)やROM(Read Only Memory)、及びハードディスクドライブなどの外部記憶装置により、負荷特定情報記憶部501、推奨消費量情報記憶部502、広告情報記憶部503、対応情報記憶部504、顧客情報記憶部505、消費量情報記憶部506、区画特定部507、負荷特定部508、判別処理部509、広告情報抽出部510、通信処理部511、異常検知部512からなる各機能ブロックを構成する。
連絡先に関する情報は例えば、連絡先の者の氏名や名称等に加え、メールアドレス等、情報を送信するためのあて先情報等を含む。
ここで、異常検知の処理は、測定器1から受信した電力消費量情報に基づき、一定時間、電力消費量がないか否かを検出することにより実行される。
一定時間のうちに、電力消費量に変化が認められた場合には、何らかの生活活動に基づく顧客の動作があったものとして、異常がないものと判断する。一方、一定時間のうちに、電力消費量に変化が認められなかった場合には、何ら生活活動がないものとして、顧客に異常が発生しているものと判断する。
まず、測定器1は、既述したのと同様に、顧客宅の分岐電路2bごとの電力消費量を測定し(S301)、電力消費量情報を、顧客識別情報と電路識別情報と共に、監視装置5に対して送信する(S302)。
この判断の処理は、一定時間、電力消費量がないか否かを検出することにより実行される。即ち、一定時間のうちに、電力消費量に変化が認められた場合には、何らかの生活活動に基づく顧客の動作があったものとして、異常がないものと判断する。一方、一定時間のうちに、電力消費量に変化が認められなかった場合には、何ら生活活動がないものとして、顧客に異常が発生しているものと判断する。
一方、異常が認められた場合には、顧客情報記憶部505を参照して、異常が認められた顧客と関連付けて記憶されている連絡先を特定する。そして、当該連絡先の連絡先端末6に対して、顧客に異常が発生している旨の警告情報を送信する(S304)。
以上の本実施形態によれば、測定器1から得られる電力消費量に基づいて、簡易に顧客の状態を把握し、何か異常が発生している可能性がある場合には、当該状況が所定の連絡先に通知されるので安心である。
例えば、SNS(ソーシャルネットワークサービス)やTwitter(ツイッター、登録商標)上で、顧客に対して電力消費量情報を提供するようにしてもよい。
