Abstract

A charge and discharge control device includes a controller configured to: predict, for each of vehicles included in a vehicle group, a remaining capacity of a storage battery mounted on each of the vehicles within a future predetermined period using a behavior prediction model that predicts behavior of each of the vehicle; optimize, for each vehicle, an instruction value of a charge and discharge power amount of the storage battery within the predetermined period such that an accumulation value of the charge and discharge power amounts follows a demand value for the vehicle group while minimizing a degradation amount of the storage battery using the predicted remaining capacities of the storage batteries and a battery degradation prediction model that predicts the degradation amount of the storage battery from the remaining capacity; and control a charging and discharging operation of the storage battery according to the optimized instruction value.

Claims (5)

1. A charge and discharge control device comprising a controller configured to:

predict, for each of vehicles included in a vehicle group, a remaining capacity of a storage battery mounted on each of the vehicles within a future predetermined period using a behavior prediction model that predicts behavior of each of the vehicles;

optimize, for each of the vehicles, an instruction value of a charge and discharge power amount of the storage battery within the predetermined period such that an accumulation value of the charge and discharge power amounts of the storage batteries of the vehicles follows a demand value of the charge and discharge power amount for the vehicle group while minimizing a degradation amount of the storage battery of each of the vehicles using the predicted remaining capacities of the storage batteries and a battery degradation prediction model that predicts the degradation amount of the storage battery from the remaining capacity of the storage battery;

control a charging and discharging operation of the storage battery of each of the vehicles according to the optimized instruction value; and

after controlling the charging and discharging operation of the storage battery of each of the vehicles according to the optimized instruction value, perform feedback control for correcting a deviation of an actual value of the charge and discharge power amount of the storage battery from the instruction value in a cycle shorter than a cycle for calculating the instruction value.
