Vehicle, delivery system, server, and program for delivery system
A vehicle is equipped with a hydrogen tank that stores hydrogen, a fuel cell that generates electricity from the hydrogen in the hydrogen tank, a filling device 4 that fills a fuel cell vehicle with the hydrogen stored in the hydrogen tank, and a charger with which electricity generated by the fuel cell is charged to an electric vehicle. Using the vehicle, hydrogen and electricity are delivered to the home of a user.
1. A delivery system, comprising:
at least one delivery vehicle, the at least one delivery vehicle comprising:
a hydrogen tank that stores hydrogen;
a fuel cell that generates electricity from the hydrogen in the hydrogen tank;
a filling device that fills a fuel cell vehicle with the hydrogen stored in the hydrogen tank; and
a charger with which electricity generated by the fuel cell is charged to an electric vehicle;
a plurality of terminals; and
a server that is capable of communicating with the plurality of terminals,
wherein the server is configured to:
transmit, to the plurality of terminals, a remaining-amount request signal requesting a remaining amount of a hydrogen tank mounted on a fuel cell vehicle or a remaining amount of a battery mounted on a electric vehicle;
receive, from the plurality of terminals, a remaining-amount answer signal indicating the remaining amount of the hydrogen tank mounted on the fuel cell vehicle or the remaining amount of the battery mounted on the electric vehicle,
transmit, to the plurality of terminals, a reservation necessity confirmation signal when the remaining-amount answer signal indicates that the remaining amount is equal to or less than a predetermined value,
receive, from the plurality of terminals, a request signal requesting at least one of a hydrogen filling reservation for the fuel cell vehicle and a charging reservation for the electric vehicle and accept a reservation request from the terminal associated with the request signal, and
create a delivery schedule for the at least one delivery vehicle based on position information of the fuel cell vehicle or the electric vehicle registered in advance in association with the terminal via which a reservation is accepted.
2. The delivery system according to claim 1 ,
wherein the server is further configured to create the delivery schedule by setting delivery areas, each of which one of the at least one delivery vehicle is able to finish going around in a predetermined period, based on the position information of the fuel cell vehicle or the electric vehicle for which the reservation is accepted, and determining a completion time for each of the delivery areas.
3. The delivery system according to claim 1 ,
wherein the server is further configured to acquire a movement history of the plurality of terminals, and determine the remaining amount based on the acquired movement history.
4. A server capable of communicating with a plurality of terminals, wherein the server is configured to:
transmit, to the plurality of terminals, a remaining-amount request signal requesting a remaining amount of a hydrogen tank mounted on a fuel cell vehicle or a remaining amount of a battery mounted on a electric vehicle;
receive, from the plurality of terminals, a remaining-amount answer signal indicating the remaining amount of the hydrogen tank mounted on the fuel cell vehicle or the remaining amount of the battery mounted on the electric vehicle,
transmit, to the plurality of terminals, a reservation necessity confirmation signal when the remaining-amount answer signal indicates that the remaining amount is equal to or less than a predetermined value,
receive, from a plurality of terminals, a request signal requesting at least one of a hydrogen filling reservation for the fuel cell vehicle and a charging reservation for the electric vehicle, which are registered in advance in association with the plurality of terminals, and accept a reservation request from the terminal associated with the request signal, and
create a delivery schedule for a delivery vehicle based on position information registered in advance in association with the fuel cell vehicle or the electric vehicle for which a reservation is accepted.
5. A computer-readable storage medium storing program for delivery system, the program causing a computer to:
transmit, to a plurality of terminals, a remaining-amount request signal requesting a remaining amount of a hydrogen tank mounted on a fuel cell vehicle or a remaining amount of a battery mounted on a electric vehicle;
receive, from the plurality of terminals, a remaining-amount answer signal indicating the remaining amount of the hydrogen tank mounted on the fuel cell vehicle or the remaining amount of the battery mounted on the electric vehicle,
transmit, to the plurality of terminals, a reservation necessity confirmation signal when the remaining-amount answer signal indicates that the remaining amount is equal to or less than a predetermined value,
receive, from the plurality of terminals, a request signal requesting at least one of a hydrogen filling reservation for the fuel cell vehicle and a charging reservation for the electric vehicle, which are registered in advance in association with the plurality of terminals and accept a reservation request from the terminal associated with the request signal, and
create a delivery schedule for a delivery vehicle based on position information registered in advance in association with the fuel cell vehicle or the electric vehicle for which a reservation is accepted.
