Abstract
A control method includes obtaining information indicating an amount of charge of at least one first electric vehicle that is connected to a power system and that is capable of receiving transmission power via a first system facility, obtaining information indicating a first threshold set for the amount of charge of the at least one first electric vehicle, and controlling, when the transmission power via the first system facility exceeds an upper limit smaller than or equal to a power capacity of the first system facility, charging or discharging of the at least one first electric vehicle on a basis of a comparison between the amount of charge of the at least one first electric vehicle and the first threshold in such a way as to reduce the transmission power via the first system facility.
Claims29
A control method comprising:
- obtaining information indicating an amount of charge of at least one first electric vehicle that is connected to a power system and that is capable of receiving transmission power via a first system facility;
- obtaining information indicating a first threshold set for the amount of charge of the at least one first electric vehicle;
- and
- controlling, when the transmission power via the first system facility exceeds an upper limit smaller than or equal to a power capacity of the first system facility, charging or discharging of the at least one first electric vehicle on a basis of a comparison between the amount of charge of the at least one first electric vehicle and the first threshold in such a way as to reduce the transmission power via the first system facility.
A control method comprising:
- obtaining information indicating an amount of charge of a plurality of first electric vehicles that are connected to a power system and that are capable of receiving transmission power via a first system facility;
- and
- controlling, when the transmission power via the first system facility and transmission power via a second system facility different from the first system facility exceed upper limits smaller than or equal to power capacities of the corresponding system facilities, charging or discharging preferentially for, among the plurality of first electric vehicles, a first electric vehicle capable of receiving the transmission power via both the first system facility and the second system facility in such a way as to reduce the transmission power via the first system facility.
A control method comprising:
- obtaining information indicating an amount of charge of a plurality of first electric vehicles that are connected to a power system and that are capable of receiving transmission power via a first system facility;
- and
- controlling, when the transmission power via the first system facility of the power system exceeds an upper limit smaller than or equal to a power capacity of the first system facility, charging or discharging preferentially for, among the plurality of first electric vehicles, a first electric vehicle whose power line to the first system facility is shorter in such a way as to reduce the transmission power via the first system facility.
A control method comprising:
- obtaining information indicating an amount of charge of a plurality of first electric vehicles that are connected to a power system and that are capable of receiving transmission power via the first system facility;
- and
- controlling, when the transmission power via the first system facility of the power system exceeds an upper limit smaller than or equal to a power capacity of the first system facility, charging or discharging preferentially for, among the plurality of first electric vehicles, a first electric vehicle that has obtained a smaller incentive in a past period in such a way as to reduce the transmission power via the first system facility.
A control apparatus comprising:
- a first information obtainer that obtains information indicating an amount of charge of at least one first electric vehicle that is connected to a power system and that is capable of receiving transmission power via a first system facility;
- a second information obtainer that obtains information indicating a first threshold set for the amount of charge of the at least one first electric vehicle;
- and
- a controller that controls, when the transmission power via the first system facility exceeds an upper limit smaller than or equal to a power capacity of the first system facility, charging or discharging of the at least one first electric vehicle on a basis of a comparison between the amount of charge of the at least one first electric vehicle and the first threshold in such a way as to reduce the transmission power via the first system facility.
