  • Patent number: 9710862
    Abstract: A terminal device sets a beneficial use time slot for regarding the electrical consumption in the beneficial use time slot as the beneficial, a waste use time slot for regarding the electrical consumption in the waste use time slot as the waste, and an efficiency improvement time slot for regarding the electrical consumption in the efficiency improvement time slot as the electrical consumption to be reduced. On the basis of the data of an amount of the electrical consumption of the device to be monitored, calculating an amount of the electrical consumption in each the time slot and displaying an amount of the electrical consumption in each time slot are preformed.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 21, 2010
    Date of Patent: July 18, 2017

  • Patent number: 9170576
    Abstract: An energy conservation diagnosis system manages electrical device K which consumes electricity to operate based on control schedule information, and includes acquiring unit 14a, rule information generation unit 14b, operating determination unit 14c and display unit 12. Acquiring unit acquires operating information obtained by relating an operating condition of electrical device to a clock time. Rule information generation unit generates rule information by relating a rule on use of electrical device to a clock time, based on one or more predetermined time slots depending on a benefit of electricity consumed by electrical device. Operating determination unit acquires control schedule information of electrical device, and generates an image data by superimposing acquired control schedule information and rule information onto operating information so that each clock time is fitted to a clock time of operating information. Display unit displays the image data.

  • Publication number: 20110172792
    Abstract: The energy management system includes a judging means (103), a usage information means (105), a schedule input means (106), a simulating means (108), a prediction information indicating means (110). The judging means (103) judges whether or not the device was used for each unit time, on the basis of power consumption of the device in a predetermined time period (measurement value). The usage information indicating means (105) indicates whether or not the device was used for each unit time, on the basis of the judgment result of the judging means (103). The schedule input means (106) requires a user to input schedule information which defines operation of the device for each unit time in the predetermined time period. The simulating means (108) calculates power consumption (prediction value) used in the device which operates in accordance with the schedule information input via the schedule input means (106), on the basis of the measurement value.
