  • Publication number: 20220276688
    Abstract: An information processing device comprises a prediction unit configured to predict a first user who uses a storage apparatus that stores a power storage device in a first time period subsequent to a current time point. The prediction unit may predict the first user based on usage information that indicates usage history of a second user who used storage apparatus in a second time period prior to the first time period. The usage information may include information related to a time frame when the second user used the storage apparatus in the second time period. The prediction unit may predict that at least some of the second users who used, in the second time period, the storage apparatus during a time frame to which the first time period belongs use the storage apparatus in the first time period.

  • Patent number: 11351981
    Abstract: A vehicle control system according to this embodiment includes: a storage battery that stores a electric power generated by a power generating unit or electric power supplied by a charging spot; a use status acquiring unit that acquires a use status of a charging spot present in an area identified by a route from a place of departure to a destination of the vehicle; and a control unit that sets a charging target value of the storage battery at the time of arrival of the vehicle at a destination to be higher in a case in which a status is determined in which the charging spot is unusable than a case in which a status is determined in which the charging spot is usable on the basis of the use status of the charging spot acquired by the use status acquiring unit.

  • Patent number: 10821962
    Abstract: A vehicle control system includes an electric power generator, a battery, a motor for traveling which rotates a driving wheel, a traveling plan generator which generates a traveling plan in which a traveling route has been planned, an electric power generation plan generator which generates an electric power generation plan in which electric power generation by the electric power generator has been planned on the traveling route, and a plan modifier which modifies the electric power generation plan to a plan for increasing the amount of electric power to be generated by the electric power generator in one or more sections before a predetermined section when electric power generation by the electric power generator in the predetermined section having a height equal to or greater than a threshold value among one or more sections constituting the traveling route has been planned in the electric power generation plan.
