RELATED APPLICATIONS

The present application is a National Phase of International Application No. PCT/JP2019/024931, filed Jun. 24, 2019, and claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2018-121627, filed Jun. 27, 2018.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to a power management server, a power management system, and a power management method.

BACKGROUND ART

In recent years, techniques for using a storage battery apparatus as a distributed power supply to maintain the power supply and demand balance of a power grid (for example, a VPP (Virtual Power Plant)) has been known (for example, see Patent Literatures 1, and 2). Further, it is conceivable to use a fuel cell system as the distributed power supply using in the VPP or the like.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

A power management server according to a first disclosure controls a fuel cell system including a power generator. The power management server includes at least one processor. The processor is configured to execute a reception process and control process. The reception processing includes a reception process of receiving a massage including an information element indicating an operation state of the fuel cell system. The control processing includes a control processing of controlling the fuel cell system which the operation state is a power generating state, in preference to the fuel cell system which the operation state is a starting up state, a stopping state, and a stop operating state, in a control target period for controlling the fuel cell system.

A power management system according to a second disclosure includes a fuel cell system including a power generator and a power management server configured to control the fuel cell system. The power management server a receiver and controller. The receiver is configured to receive a message including an information element indicating an operation state of the fuel cell system. The controller is configured to control the fuel cell system which the operation state is a power generating state, in preference to the fuel cell system which the operation state is a starting up state, stopping state, and stop operating state, in a control target period for controlling the fuel cell system.

A power management method according to a third disclosure includes controlling a fuel cell system including a power generator by a power management server. The controlling the fuel cell system includes receiving a message including an information element indicating an operation state of the fuel cell system by the power management server, and controlling the fuel cell system which the operation state is a power generating state, in preference to the fuel cell system which the operation state is a starting up state, stopping state, and stop operating state, in a control target period for controlling the fuel cell system, by the power management server.
