[Overview of information processing device 1]
FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an overview of an information processing device 1 according to the present embodiment. The information processing device 1 is used to provide a support service that supports effective use of storage batteries. In this embodiment, the storage battery is, for example, an industrial lithium ion storage battery with a storage capacity of about 10 kWh to several tens of kWh. The storage battery can be housed in a unit that is movable by means of transportation such as a truck. The unit shall house one or more storage batteries. Examples of the unit include a stationary storage battery unit that stores one or more storage batteries, and a container that stores one or more storage batteries or one or more storage battery units.

The information processing device 1 predicts the profit that can be obtained when a storage battery is used for a predetermined purpose for each of a plurality of periods and a plurality of regions A (regions A1, A2, . . . An) (( 1)). Each of the plurality of regions has different electricity demand depending on the weather conditions and major industries in the region, and the unit price of electricity also differs depending on the season. As a result, in each of a plurality of regions, the income earned by storage battery owners by renting storage batteries differs depending on the period.

The information processing device 1 selects a region with relatively large profits in each of a plurality of different periods based on the predicted profits corresponding to each of a plurality of periods and a plurality of regions ((2) in FIG. 1). . In the example shown in FIG. 1, the information processing device 1 selects region A1 and region A2 as regions with large profits for each of a plurality of different periods.

The information processing device 1 provides the storage battery holder with information indicating the selected region at each of a plurality of different times ((3) in FIG. 1). By doing this, the storage battery owner can understand when and in which region the storage battery he/she owns should be installed in order to increase profits.

[Configuration of information processing device 1]
Next, the configuration of the information processing device 1 will be explained. FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the configuration of the information processing device 1 according to the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 2, the information processing device 1 includes a communication section 11, a storage section 12, and a control section 13.

The communication unit 11 is, for example, a communication interface for communicating with an external device.
The storage unit 12 is a storage medium including a ROM (Read Only Memory), a RAM (Random Access Memory), and the like. The storage unit 12 stores programs executed by the control unit 13. For example, the storage unit 12 stores a program that causes the information processing device 1 to function as a prediction unit 131, a registration unit 132, a reception unit 133, a selection unit 134, and a provision unit 135.

The control unit 13 is, for example, a CPU (Central Processing Unit). The control unit 13 functions as a prediction unit 131, a registration unit 132, a reception unit 133, a selection unit 134, and a provision unit 135 by executing a program stored in the storage unit 12.

The prediction unit 131 predicts profits obtained when a storage battery is used for a predetermined purpose for each of a plurality of periods and a plurality of regions. The prediction unit 131 predicts the revenue corresponding to each of the plurality of periods and the plurality of regions based on the past power supply and demand situation in each of the plurality of periods in each of the plurality of regions.

For example, the prediction unit 131 acquires information indicating the past power rate unit price and power purchase price for each time period in a day in a plurality of regions and a plurality of periods, from an electric power company or the like. Then, based on the information, the prediction unit 131 predicts the profit that the owner of the storage battery will receive when the storage battery is used for a predetermined purpose in each of a plurality of periods and a plurality of regions.

Here, the predetermined usage includes peak cut, peak shift, and supply and demand adjustment. Peak cut is obtained from the power grid at peak times in a predetermined period (for example, one day) by supplying electricity stored in a storage battery to the power supply destination during the time when the power consumption at the power supply destination is at its peak. This is a method of reducing power consumption. The unit price of electricity negotiated between electricity consumers and power companies is determined based on the amount of electricity consumed during peak hours in a year. It is possible to suppress the annual power unit price that is concluded, and it is possible to suppress electricity usage charges.

Peak shift is a method of moving the peak power consumption period to another time period by supplying electricity stored in a storage battery during the peak power consumption period of the day at the power supply destination. It is. By performing peak shifting, power consumers can control the amount of power acquired from the power system during times when the unit price of power is high, and can control power usage charges.

Supply and demand adjustment is a method of supplying electricity to a supply and demand adjustment market. Specifically, supply and demand adjustment is a method of stabilizing the power balance, which changes depending on the relationship between the amount of supply in the power system and the amount of demand, in the supply and demand adjustment market. In other words, supply and demand adjustment involves adjusting the amount of electricity stored in storage batteries in order to compensate for the amount of electricity supplied (δkw), which changes from moment to moment, depending on the relationship between the amount of electricity supplied in the power system and the amount of demand. This is a method of supplying.

The prediction unit 131 predicts the profit that the owner of the storage battery can obtain when the storage battery is used for each of predetermined usage purposes such as peak cut, peak shift, and supply and demand adjustment.

When predicting revenue from peak cuts, the prediction unit 131 assumes power consumers who consume standard power in each of a plurality of regions, and calculates the amount of power that the power consumers can reduce by performing peak cuts. The rate is predicted, and a predetermined percentage of the electricity rate is predicted as the revenue that the storage battery owner will receive. Note that peak cutting can be achieved by using storage batteries only during peak cutting periods. For this reason, the prediction unit 131 predicts that profits obtained by peak cutting will occur only when peak cutting is performed, that is, when storage batteries are rented out.

When predicting peak shift profits, the prediction unit 131 calculates the power rate unit price in the time period when the power rate unit price is the highest and the power rate unit price in the time period when the power rate unit price is the lowest in each of multiple regions and multiple periods. The difference with the unit price of electricity is predicted as the electricity rate that the electricity consumer can reduce, and a predetermined percentage of the electricity rate is predicted as the profit that the owner of the storage battery can obtain. Note that since the peak shift can be performed throughout the year, the prediction unit 131 predicts the revenue obtained by the peak shift in all of the plurality of periods.

When predicting revenue from supply and demand adjustment, the prediction unit 131 uses information obtained from electric power companies, etc., indicating the purchase unit price of electricity at each time of the day for each of multiple regions and multiple periods. Forecast the revenue of supply and demand adjustment. Note that since the supply and demand adjustment is performed throughout the year, the prediction unit 131 predicts the revenue obtained by adjusting the supply and demand in all of a plurality of periods. Specifically, the prediction unit 131 assumes that power will be supplied from the storage battery for a predetermined proportion of the supply and demand adjustment performed at each of a plurality of periods, and that the power supply will be The profit is predicted based on the amount of electricity sold in the electricity adjustment market and the unit price of electricity sold in the case where the electricity adjustment is carried out.

For example, the prediction unit 131 predicts the profit per unit amount of electricity (for example, 1 kWh) supplied from the storage battery. When the prediction unit 131 predicts profits for each of a plurality of periods and a plurality of regions, the prediction unit 131 associates the region identification information indicating the region, the usage of the storage battery, and the predicted revenue, and stores it in the storage unit 12 as predicted revenue information. to be memorized. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example of predicted profit information. In the example shown in FIG. 3, it can be confirmed that monthly predicted profits are associated with each of a plurality of regions and uses.

The registration unit 132 accepts registration of electricity consumers. For example, the registration unit 132 receives a consumer registration request requesting registration of an electricity consumer from the consumer terminal 3 used by the electricity consumer. When the registration unit 132 receives the customer registration request, the registration unit 132 displays a customer registration reception screen for accepting the registration of the power consumer, and receives the power usage history indicating the name, address, and past power usage of the power consumer. Registration of electricity consumers will be accepted. The registration unit 132 associates the name, address, and power usage history of the electric power consumer whose registration has been accepted, and stores them in the storage unit 12 as electric power consumer information.

The reception unit 133 receives storage battery capacity information indicating the capacity of the storage battery and storage location information indicating the storage location of the storage battery from the owner of the storage battery. For example, the receiving unit 133 receives storage battery capacity information and storage location information from the owner terminal 2 used by the owner of the storage battery.

The selection unit 134 selects a combination of regions with relatively high profits in each of the plurality of different periods, based on the profits corresponding to each of the plurality of periods and the plurality of regions predicted by the prediction unit 131. When the reception unit 133 receives storage battery capacity information and storage location information from a storage battery owner, the selection unit 134 presents the combination of regions with relatively high profits in each of a plurality of different periods to the owner. Select as a combination of

Specifically, first, when the reception unit 133 receives storage battery capacity information and storage location information from a storage battery owner, the selection unit 134 specifies the usage of the storage battery owned by the storage battery owner. For example, the selection unit 134 selects one of peak cut, peak shift, and supply and demand adjustment as the usage. Among the uses, the selection unit 134 may preferentially select the peak cut as the use, since the performance of the storage battery is not greatly affected by the peak cut and profits can be stably obtained.

Note that, although the selection unit 134 preferentially selects peak cut as the usage purpose, the selection unit 134 is not limited to this. For example, the reception unit 133 may accept a selection of the usage of the storage battery from the owner of the storage battery. Then, the selection unit 134 may select the usage selected by the owner of the storage battery.

Next, the selection unit 134 determines whether the peak periods of revenue do not overlap, based on the revenue corresponding to each of the multiple periods and multiple regions predicted by the prediction unit 131 for the selected usage purpose. Select one or more of the above combinations of regions.

Here, the period when revenue peaks is, for example, the peak month, which is the month when electricity usage peaks, and the surrounding months within a predetermined month before and after the peak month, which are the months when electricity usage peaks. This is the period when the difference is within a predetermined percentage with the surrounding months, and is the period when the storage battery is used. In the example shown in Figure 3, the period when the revenue corresponding to the area "A city" and the usage type "peak cut" peaks is from November to February, and the period when the revenue corresponding to the area "B town" and the usage type "peak cut" peaks is from November to February. The period when the corresponding revenue peaks is from July to September. In the example shown in FIG. 3, the selection unit 134 selects "City A" and "Town B" and "City A" and "City C" as combinations of two or more regions whose peak revenue periods do not overlap. , select.

For each of the one or more selected combinations, the selection unit 134 determines the operating period of the storage battery in each of the two or more regions corresponding to the combination. The selection unit 134 completes the movement and installation of the storage battery within the period in which the storage battery is not operated from among the selected one or more combinations based on the predetermined storage battery installation period and storage battery movement period. Select a combination that allows. By doing so, the information processing device 1 can prevent the installation period or movement period of the storage battery from overlapping with the scheduled operation period of the storage battery, and the storage battery cannot be operated during the scheduled operation period.

The selection unit 134 selects the selected one based on the location of the storage location of the storage battery indicated by the storage location information received by the reception unit 133 and the location of each of the plurality of regions corresponding to each of the selected one or more combinations. The cost of moving the storage battery to each of the plurality of regions corresponding to each of the above combinations is calculated. Of the one or more selected combinations, the selection unit 134 selects a combination of regions that has a relatively high profit after deducting the calculated transportation cost from the profit obtained by installing storage batteries in each of the plurality of regions. Select. By doing so, the information processing device 1 can select a combination of regions where the profit obtained by the owner of the storage battery is relatively high after deducting the travel cost.

Next, when peak cut or peak shift is selected as the usage, the selection unit 134 selects a plurality of electric power consumers existing in the region corresponding to the selected combination and registers the plurality of electric power consumers in the region. The unit 132 specifies the power demand amount, which is the power amount required by each of the registered power consumers at each of a plurality of periods. For example, the selection unit 134 specifies the amount of electricity expected to be required in each of a plurality of periods based on the electricity usage history received from the electricity consumer when the registration unit 132 accepts the registration of the electricity consumer. do.

Then, the selection unit 134 further selects, from among the identified plurality of power consumers, a power demand that requires an amount of power corresponding to the capacity of the storage battery owned by the storage battery owner accepted by the reception unit 133. . For example, the selection unit 134 selects a power demand amount that is smaller than the capacity of the storage battery owned by the storage battery owner and that is closest to the capacity of the storage battery among the identified plurality of power consumers. select the electricity consumer to By doing so, the information processing device 1 can select a power consumer with a relatively high possibility that the storage battery can be used effectively.

The providing unit 135 provides information indicating the combination of regions selected by the selecting unit 134 at each of a plurality of different periods, information indicating the selected usage, and the revenue predicted by the forecasting unit 131 for each of the regions. By notifying the owner terminal 2 of the information shown, this information is provided to the owner of the storage battery. Furthermore, when peak cut or peak shift is selected as the usage, the providing unit 135 may provide information indicating the selected power consumer to the owner of the storage battery. By doing this, storage battery owners will be able to understand in which areas the storage batteries can be used to improve profits, and to which electricity consumers the storage batteries can be lent to to improve profits. can be understood.

Although the providing unit 135 has provided information indicating the selected power consumer to the storage battery holder, the present invention is not limited to this, and the provision unit 135 may provide information on the storage battery holder to the selected power consumer. . By doing so, the owner of the storage battery and the power consumer can recognize each other, and transactions regarding lending of the storage battery can be smoothly performed.

Further, the receiving unit 133 may display a transaction screen on the consumer terminal 3 for receiving the loan of the storage battery from the holder of the storage battery, and may receive a request for lending the storage battery from the power consumer. Then, in response to receiving the storage battery rental request, the reception unit 133 may request a brokerage fee from at least one of the storage battery holder and the power consumer.

Further, it is assumed that the registration unit 132 has accepted registration of a plurality of power consumers before the flowchart shown in FIG. 4 starts.

First, the reception unit 133 receives storage battery capacity information indicating the capacity of the storage battery and storage location information indicating the storage location of the storage battery from the owner of the storage battery (S1).
Next, the selection unit 134 selects the usage of the storage battery owned by the storage battery owner. (S2).

Next, the selection unit 134 selects a combination of regions in which the peak periods of profits do not overlap (S3). The selection unit 134 selects a combination of regions where the peak periods of earnings do not overlap and where the earnings after deducting the cost of moving the storage battery are relatively high.

Next, when peak cut or peak shift is selected as the usage, the selection unit 134 selects the power demand that requires the power demand amount corresponding to the capacity of the storage battery held by the storage battery owner accepted by the reception unit 133. Select a house (S4).

Subsequently, the providing unit 135 notifies the holder terminal 2 used by the storage battery holder of information indicating the combination of regions selected by the selection unit 134 at each of a plurality of different times (S5).
