Abstract: In a first contact of a connector, an insulation-displacement connection portion has two insulation-displacement blades and has a narrow slit and a wide slit. The insulation-displacement blades are different from each other in position in a first direction and correspond to the narrow slit. The insulation-displacement blades are obliquely intersected with the first direction. The narrow slit and the wide slit extend in the front-rear direction. In the first direction, the insulation-displacement blade is located between the narrow slit 362 and the wide slit 364. In a second direction, a middle of the wide slit 364 is different from a middle of the narrow slit 362 in position. When covered wire is pushed into the narrow slit, it is pressed on the insulation-displacement blades at different timings in order.

Abstract: A charging processing system includes: a power supply facility that supplies CO2 free power generated using renewable energy; a vehicle in which CO2 free charging is able to be performed to charge an onboard power storage device using the CO2 free power supplied from the power supply facility; a mobile terminal portable by a user of the vehicle; and a server. The server issues, when the CO2 free charging is performed in the vehicle, a coupon to the user of the vehicle in which the CO2 free charging is performed, the coupon being usable at a shop located around the power supply facility. When a timing to perform the CO2 free charging is included in a specific time period, the server increases the number of issued coupons and a usage value of each coupon.

The server includes: a storage device that stores user attribute information in which a user ID and an attribute of each user are associated with each other; and a control device that extracts a user who has a specific attribute by making reference to the user attribute information and that notifies coupon advance-notice information to the extracted user.

Abstract: A charging system includes a vehicle, a power supply facility, a mobile terminal, and a server. The power supply facility performs external charging by supplying power to the vehicle. The mobile terminal receives a user input from a user of the vehicle and provides a notification to the user. The server communicates with the mobile terminal. The mobile terminal sets a first notification condition in the server in response to the user input. A second notification condition is set in the server in advance. The server determines whether or not each of the first notification condition and the second notification condition is satisfied during the external charging. When the first notification condition is satisfied, the server provides a first notification to the user through the mobile terminal. When the second notification condition is satisfied, the server provides a second notification to the user through the mobile terminal.
