Abstract

A system operator side computer includes: a supply amount acquirer configured to acquire a maximum suppliable power amount from a power generation operator at a predetermined time later; a demand specifier configured to specify a power demand at the predetermined time later; and a shortage amount calculator configured to calculate a power shortage amount based on the power demand and the maximum suppliable power amount.

Claims (50)

1 . A system operator side computer comprising:

a supply amount acquirer configured to acquire a maximum suppliable power amount from a power generation operator at a predetermined time later;

a demand specifier configured to specify a power demand at the predetermined time later; and

a shortage amount calculator configured to calculate a power shortage amount based on the power demand and the maximum suppliable power amount.

2 . The system operator side computer according to claim 1 ,

wherein the supply amount acquirer is configured to acquire the maximum suppliable power amount specified based on weather from the power generation operator, and

wherein the demand specifier is configured to specify the power demand based on the weather.

3 . The system operator side computer according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a demand response unit configured to transmit a power shortage amount with respect to a requested power amount and an incentive with respect to the power shortage amount to a request source of the requested power amount when the requested power amount is not suppliable.

4 . A power generation operator side computer comprising:

a request acquirer configured to acquire a request for a maximum suppliable power amount from a system operator at a predetermined time later;

a supply amount specifier configured to calculate the maximum suppliable power amount at the predetermined time later; and

a supply amount notifier configured to notify the system operator of the calculated maximum suppliable power amount.

5 . The power generation operator side computer according to claim 4 , wherein the supply amount specifier is configured to calculate the maximum suppliable power amount based on profit and loss when an amount of generated power is increased.

6 . The power generation operator side computer according to claim 4 , further comprising:

a demand response unit configured to transmit a power shortage amount with respect to a requested power amount and an incentive with respect to the power shortage amount to a request source of the requested power amount when the requested power amount is not suppliable.

7 . A power system comprising:

a system operator side computer; and

a power generation operator side computer,

wherein the system operator side computer includes

a supply amount acquirer configured to acquire a maximum suppliable power amount from a power generation operator at a predetermined time later,

a demand specifier configured to specify a power demand at the predetermined time later, and

a shortage amount calculator configured to calculate a power shortage amount based on the power demand and the maximum suppliable power amount, and

wherein the power generation operator side computer includes

a request acquirer configured to acquire a request for the maximum suppliable power amount from a system operator at the predetermined time later,

a supply amount specifier configured to calculate the maximum suppliable power amount at the predetermined time later, and

a supply amount notifier configured to notify the system operator of the calculated maximum suppliable power amount.

8 . A control method by a system operator side computer, the method comprising:

acquiring a maximum suppliable power amount from a power generation operator at a predetermined time later;

specifying a power demand at the predetermined time later; and

calculating a power shortage amount based on the power demand and the maximum suppliable power amount.

9 . A control method by a power generation operator side computer, the method comprising:

acquiring a request for a maximum suppliable power amount from a system operator at a predetermined time later;

calculating the maximum suppliable power amount at the predetermined time later; and

notifying the system operator of the calculated maximum suppliable power amount.

10 . A control method by a power system, the method comprising:

acquiring a maximum suppliable power amount from a power generation operator at a predetermined time later;

specifying a power demand at the predetermined time later;

calculating a power shortage amount based on the power demand and the maximum suppliable power amount;

acquiring a request for the maximum suppliable power amount from a system operator at the predetermined time later;

calculating the maximum suppliable power amount at the predetermined time later; and

notifying the system operator of the calculated maximum suppliable power amount.

11 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium that stores a program causing a system operator side computer to perform:

acquiring a maximum suppliable power amount from a power generation operator at a predetermined time later;

specifying a power demand at the predetermined time later; and

calculating a power shortage amount based on the power demand and the maximum suppliable power amount.

12 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium that stores a program causing a power generation operator side computer to perform:

acquiring a request for a maximum suppliable power amount from a system operator at a predetermined time later;

calculating the maximum suppliable power amount at the predetermined time later; and

notifying the system operator of the calculated maximum suppliable power amount.
