- Abstract:
A power supply/demand management device includes: a battery health acquisition controller configured or programmed to acquire a battery health X of the storage battery; a power selling amount management controller configured or programmed to acquire a desired power selling amount and correct desired power selling amount based on the battery health X acquired by the battery health acquisition controller; a power transmission/reception management controller configured or programmed to manage an amount of received/transmitted power between the storage battery and the power transmission/distribution system, based on the corrected power selling amount; and an incentive management controller configured or programmed to calculate an incentive to be provided to the user of the storage battery based on the corrected power selling amount.
- Claim:
1. A power supply/demand management device configured or programmed to manage power supply and demand between a power transmission/distribution system and a storage battery, the power supply/demand management device comprising: a battery health acquisition controller configured or programmed to acquire a battery health X of the storage battery; a power selling amount management controller configured or programmed to acquire a desired power selling amount and correct desired power selling amount based on the battery health X acquired by the battery health acquisition controller, thereby calculating a corrected power selling amount, the desired power selling amount being an amount of electric power set by a user of the storage battery and being to be supplied from the storage battery; a power transmission/reception management controller configured or programmed to manage an amount of received/transmitted power between the storage battery and the power transmission/distribution system, based on the corrected power selling amount; and an incentive management controller configured or programmed to calculate an incentive to be provided to the user of the storage battery based on the corrected power selling amount.
- Claim:
2. The power supply/demand management device according to claim 1, wherein the power selling amount management controller stores a predetermined first threshold X1, the battery health X acquired by the battery health acquisition controller and the first threshold X1 are compared, and if the battery health X exceeds the first threshold X1, the corrected power selling amount is calculated as a value obtained by adding an excess amount to the desired power selling amount, and if the battery health X is below the first threshold X1, the corrected power selling amount is calculated as a value obtained by subtracting a subtraction amount from the desired power selling amount.
- Claim:
3. The power supply/demand management device according to claim 2, wherein the power selling amount management controller stores a predetermined second threshold X2 as a value smaller than the first threshold X1, and the battery health X acquired by the battery health acquisition controller and the second threshold X2 are compared, and if the battery health X is below the second threshold X2, the corrected power selling amount is zero.
- Claim:
4. The power supply/demand management device according to claim 2, wherein if the battery health X acquired by the battery health acquisition controller exceeds the first threshold X1, the incentive management controller calculates an incentive to the desired power selling amount based on a first incentive grant rate, and calculates an incentive to the excess amount based on a second incentive grant rate, and the second incentive grant rate is higher than the first incentive grant rate.
- Claim:
5. The power supply/demand management device according to claim 1, wherein the incentive management controller calculates a participation incentive to be provided to the user who sets the desired power selling amount.
- Claim:
6. The power supply/demand management device according to claim 1, wherein the battery health X is a value based on at least one of a resistance increase rate, a capacity retention rate, or a temperature of the storage battery.
- Claim:
7. The power supply/demand management device according to claim 1, wherein the storage battery is mounted as a driving source on a vehicle, and is electrically connected to the storage battery through an electric circuit of the vehicle to thereby perform transmission and reception of electric power.
- Claim:
8. A power supply/demand adjusting method for adjusting power supply and demand between a power transmission/distribution system and a storage battery, the method comprising the steps of: acquiring a battery health X of the storage battery; acquiring a desired power selling amount, the desired power selling amount being an amount of electric power set by a user of the storage battery and being to be supplied from the storage battery to the power transmission/distribution system; correcting the desired power selling amount based on the battery health X acquired in the step of acquiring the battery health X, thereby calculating a corrected power selling amount; supplying electric power from the storage battery to the power transmission/distribution system based on the corrected power selling amount; and calculating an incentive to be provided to the user of the storage battery based on the corrected power selling amount.
- Claim:
9. The power supply/demand adjusting method according to claim 8, wherein in the step of calculating the corrected power selling amount, the battery health X acquired in the battery health acquiring step and a predetermined first threshold X1 are compared, and if the battery health X exceeds the first threshold X1, the corrected power selling amount is calculated as a value obtained by adding an excess value to the desired power selling amount, and if the battery health X is below the first threshold X1, the corrected power selling amount is calculated as a value obtained by subtracting a subtraction amount from the desired power selling amount.
- Claim:
10. The power supply/demand adjusting method according to claim 9, wherein in the step of calculating the corrected power selling amount, the battery health X acquired in the battery health acquiring step and a predetermined second threshold X2 smaller than the first threshold X1 are compared, and if the battery health X is below the second threshold X2, the corrected power selling amount is calculated to be zero.
- Claim:
11. The power supply/demand adjusting method according to claim 9, wherein in the step of calculating the incentive, if the battery health X acquired by the battery health acquisition controller exceeds the first threshold X1, an incentive to the desired power selling amount is calculated based on a first incentive grant rate, and an incentive to the excess amount is calculated based on a second incentive grant rate, and the second incentive grant rate is higher than the first incentive grant rate.
- Claim:
12. The power supply/demand adjusting method according to claim 8, wherein in the step of calculating the incentive, a participation incentive to be provided to the user who sets the desired power selling amount in the step of acquiring the desired power selling amount is calculated.
