  • Publication number: 20240375527
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus acquires information indicating a route for a going and/or return trip of a power supply vehicle to supply power to a first vehicle at a first destination. The information processing apparatus then acquires positional information for and SOCs of a plurality of second vehicles. The information processing apparatus then identifies, from among the plurality of second vehicles, one or more second vehicles that are present in a vicinity of the first destination and/or on the route of the power supply vehicle and whose SOCs are less than a first standard value. The information processing apparatus then proposes to each of the one or more second vehicles identified a reservation for use of a power supply service in which the power supply vehicle supplies power.
