  • Patent number: 9701302
    Abstract: In a vehicle energy management device, a travel route calculator calculates a travel route of a vehicle, and an energy consumption-related information obtaining unit obtains energy consumption-related information along the travel route. An energy consumption amount computing unit calculates, based on the energy consumption-related information, an estimated value of an energy consumption amount by vehicle devices (required travel energy amount) when the vehicle travels along the travel route. A control plan preparing unit prepares a control plan for the vehicle devices based on the required travel energy amount. A feedback control unit performs feedback control of the vehicle devices to reduce a difference between the estimated value and an actual measured value of the energy consumption amount by the vehicle devices.
