Abstract: This power sale timing optimum control system is provided with a communication unit, a demand prediction unit, a supply prediction unit, and a timing determination unit. The communication unit acquires the amount of power stored in each of multiple power storage devices. The demand prediction unit predicts a total amount of demand on power in a utility customer group. On the basis of the acquired amount of stored power, the supply prediction unit predicts the total amount of suppliable power that can be supplied in the utility customer group. The timing determination unit determines a power sale timing on the basis of the predicted total amount of demand and the predicted total amount of suppliable power.

Abstract: A coordinator (10) includes an accepting unit (11), a required resource information calculation unit (13a), an insufficient resource information calculation unit (13b), a combination determination unit (14), and a communication unit (18). The required resource information calculation unit (13a) calculates information regarding resources required to satisfy a request accepted by the accepting unit (11). The insufficient resource information calculation unit (13b) compares the required resources calculated by the required resource information calculation unit (13a) with resources included in each of a plurality of sensor nodes (30, 40, 50), and calculates information regarding an insufficient resource that each sensor node lacks. The combination determination unit (14) determines a combination of resources required to satisfy the request, based on the information regarding the insufficient resource calculated by the insufficient resource information calculation unit (13b).

Abstract: A power supply and demand prediction system that predicts the power supply and demand of a group including multiple utility customers is provided and includes a communication unit, a demand prediction unit, a power generation prediction unit, and a stored power prediction unit. The communication unit acquires the amount of power stored in each of multiple power storage devices belonging to the group. The demand prediction unit predicts the amount of demand for power for each utility customer. The power generation prediction unit predicts the amount of power generated by each of multiple solar panels belonging to the group. The stored power prediction unit predicts the amount of power stored in each battery on the basis of the amount of stored power acquired for each power storage device, the amount of demand predicted for each utility customer, and the amount of generated power predicted for each solar panel.

Abstract: Power coordination control systems (10a-10c) are provided with superimposed signal generation units (11a-11c), transmission units (12a-12c), receiving units (13a-13c) and connection relation estimation units (14a-14c). At the location of a utility consumer A (20), the superimposed signal generation unit (11a) generates a superimposed signal by superimposing a prescribed signal on a voltage supplied from a system (50). The transmission unit (12a) transmits the superimposed signal generated in the superimposed signal generation unit (11a) from the utility consumer A (20) to utility consumers B (30) and C (40). The receiving unit (13b) receives the superimposed signal at the location of the utility consumer B (30). The connection relation estimation units (14a-14c) estimate the connection relation between the utility consumer A (20) and the utility consumer B (30) on the basis of the receiving status of the superimposed signal and/or the received information received by the receiving units (13a-13c).

Abstract: This power trading matching system is provided with a required power amount information acquisition part, a customer information acquisition part, a surplus power estimation part, and a matching part. The surplus power estimation part estimates the suppliable amount of surplus power based on the generated power amount, the accumulated power amount, and the consumed power amount during a prescribed time period of a customer B acquired by the customer information acquisition part. The matching part detects combinations of customers having matching conditions by comparing the information about the surplus power amount suppliable from the customer B, estimated by the surplus power estimation part, and the required power amount information of a customer A acquired by the required power amount information acquisition part.

Abstract: This power transmission route state detection device (10) is provided with a power transmission route determination unit (13), a first power amount acquisition unit (11), a second power amount acquisition unit (12) and a state estimation unit (14). The power transmission route determination unit (13) determines a power transmission route for interchanging power between utility customers connected to a node (52) of a mesh-type power network (51). The first power amount acquisition unit (11) acquires the amount of power transmitted by an interchange-source utility customer (G20). The second power amount acquisition unit (12) acquires the amount of power transmitted to an interchange-destination utility customer (G30) from the interchange-source utility customer (G20). The state estimation unit (14) estimates the state of the determined power transmission route on the basis of amount of power acquired by the first power amount acquisition unit (11) and the second power amount acquisition unit (12).
