VEHICLE-USE ELECTRICITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM, VEHICLE-USE ELECTRICITY INFORMATION MANAGEMENT APPARATUS AND VEHICLE-USE ELECTRICAL LOAD
First Claim
1. A vehicle-use electricity management system for a vehicle havinga plurality of electrical loads and an electricity supply means to supply electricity to the electrical loads, comprising:
- an electricity demand detection means to detect electricity consumed by the electrical loads as electricity demand;
an electricity price information generation means to generate electricity cost information indicative of a price of electricity supplied to the electrical loads as an electricity price based on the electricity demand detected by the electricity demand detection means;
whereinat least one of the electrical loads includes an electricity consumption ability determination means to determine whether electricity supplied from the electricity supply means to the own electrical load can be consumed unconditionally based on comparison between the electricity price information received from the electricity price information generation means and electricity consumption ability information stored in the own electrical load, and an electricity consumption control means to control an amount of electricity consumed by the own electrical load based on a determination result made by the electricity consumption ability determination means.

Abstract
The vehicle-use electricity management system includes an electricity demand detection means to detect electricity consumed by electrical loads, and an electricity price information generation means to generate electricity price information indicative of a price of electricity supplied to the electrical loads based on the electricity demand. At least one of the electrical loads includes an electricity consumption ability determination means to determine whether electricity supplied to the own electrical load can be consumed unconditionally based on comparison between the electricity price information received from the electricity price information generation means and electricity consumption ability information stored in the own electrical load, and an electricity consumption control means to control an amount of electricity consumed by the own electrical load based on a determination result made by the electricity consumption ability determination means.

14. A vehicle-use electricity information management apparatus mounted on a vehicle having a plurality of electrical loads and an electricity supply means to manage electricity supplied from the electricity supply means to the electrical loads, comprising:
-
an electricity price information generation means to generate electricity price information indicative of a price of electricity supplied from the electricity supply means to the electrical loads based on an electricity demand of the electrical loads; and an output means to output the electricity price information generated by the electricity price information generating means to at least one of the electrical loads. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16)

17. A vehicle-use electrical load mounted on a vehicle and configured to operate on electricity supplied from an electricity supply means mounted on the vehicle, comprising:
-
an electricity consumption determination means to determine whether the vehicle-use electrical load can consume electricity supplied form the electricity supply means unconditionally based on comparison between electricity price information received from the electricity supply means and electricity consumption ability information set in the vehicle-use electrical load, the electricity price information indicating a price of electricity supplied from the electricity supply means, the electricity consumption ability information indicating a level of ability to consume electricity supplied from the electricity supply mean; and electricity consumption control means to control an amount of electricity consumed by the vehicle-use electrical load in accordance with a determination result by the electricity consumption determination means.
