  • Patent number: 12264925
    Abstract: A server includes a communication device and a processor. From a user terminal, the communication device acquires a vehicle dispatch request including information indicating a vehicle dispatch location and a destination of a vehicle. When the communication device acquires the vehicle dispatch request, the processor determines a traveling route of the vehicle from a current location of the vehicle to the destination via the vehicle dispatch location in accordance with the vehicle dispatch request. The processor determines a route from the current location to the vehicle dispatch location such that an amount of power storage in a power storage device at the vehicle dispatch location is larger than an amount of electric power with which the vehicle can travel from the vehicle dispatch location to the destination.
