Abstract
A mobile terminal includes a display and a controller. The display displays a map image. The controller controls the display. The controller controls the display to, when a placement position of at least one power facility is displayed on the map image, display power-rate-related information and the placement position of the at least one power facility on the map image. The at least one power facility supplies electric power to an object having a power storage device mounted thereon, to charge the power storage device. The power-rate-related information is information related to a power rate unit price for charging.
