Abstract: A resource recovery system for recovering articles to be recycled as a resource includes a plurality of resource recovery apparatuses that recovers the discarded articles by a person discarding waste and a server apparatus that manages the plurality of resource recovery apparatuses. The server apparatus generates suggestion information including information indicating a suggestion for a location of a target resource recovery apparatus, based on a utilization result and a location of each of the plurality of resource recovery apparatuses. The target resource recovery apparatus is the resource recovery apparatus to be newly placed and/or the resource recovery apparatus that has been located and of which location is to be changed.

Abstract: A resource collection apparatus is an apparatus for collecting waste reusable as a resource. The resource collection apparatus includes an opening associated with a predetermined sorting type, an opening/closing unit configured to open and close the opening, a first detector configured to perform an operation to detect a target waste belonging to a user, and a controller configured to specify a sorting type into which the target waste is to be sorted, by using a result of the detection by the first detector. The controller switches the opening/closing unit from a closed state to an open state when the specified sorting type matches the sorting type associated with the opening.

Abstract: A resource recovery system is a system for recovering articles which can be recycled as resources. The resource recovery system includes a resource recovery apparatus that recovers the article discarded by a consumer, and a server apparatus that communicates with the resource recovery apparatus. The resource recovery apparatus transmits, to the server apparatus, a first message including an article identifier for identifying the recovered article. The server apparatus associates, based on the first message received from the resource recovery apparatus, a discarding time when the article is discarded with a provision time when the article is provided to the consumer.

Abstract: An air-conditioning control apparatus is configured to group a plurality of environmental sensors into a plurality of groups, based on correlation coefficients between environmental information acquired by the plurality of environmental sensors. The air-conditioning control apparatus is configured to regularly calculate a correlation coefficient between environmental information acquired by one or more environmental sensors in each of the plurality of groups. The air-conditioning control apparatus is configured to reset, in the case where the calculated correlation coefficient is less than a predetermined value, a group associated with an environmental sensor. The air-conditioning control apparatus is configured to control each of a plurality of air conditioners that are each associated with any of the plurality of groups, based on environmental information acquired by each environmental sensor in the group associated with the air conditioner.

Abstract: An alert presentation apparatus (EMS (200)) acquires the amounts of power consumed by loads connected to a system, and on the basis of the acquired power amounts, presents a load list including the power consumption of each load. This alert presentation apparatus (EMS (200)) presents the load list so as to reduce the frequency at which the loads that are on the load list change.

Abstract: In the present invention, a power monitoring unit (330) estimates the integral power consumption on the basis of an obtained actual value or amount of change of power consumption. When the estimated value for the integral power consumption as estimated by the power monitoring unit (330) reaches a prescribed amount of power, a presentation unit (204) presents a warning, on the basis of the power values obtained by a load power meter (340), indicating a list of loads for which the power consumption should be controlled.

Abstract: Equipments managing apparatus 200 comprises a storage unit 200 configured to store equipment information including maintenance information for each of the plurality of equipments; and a calculation unit 230 configured to calculate a first index value indicating a maintenance priority among the plurality of equipments for each of the plurality of equipments based on predetermined information commonly included in each of the pieces of equipment information.
