OPERATION PLANNING METHOD, OPERATION PLANNING DEVICE, HEAT PUMP HOT WATER SUPPLY SYSTEM OPERATION METHOD, AND HEAT PUMP HOT WATER SUPPLY AND HEATING SYSTEM OPERATION METHOD
First Claim
1. An operation planning method performed in a system including a power generation device, a first electric load which operates using power generated by the power generation device, and a second electric load which generates heat using power generated by the power generation device, said operation planning method being performed to design an operation plan for the second electric load, and comprising:
- predicting, for individual unit time periods, an amount of power to be generated by the power generation device and an amount of power to be consumed by the first electric load; and
designing the operation plan for the second electric load to cause the second electric load to operate during an operation period which includes, among the time periods, a time period in which an amount of reverse power is the largest, the reverse power being calculated by subtracting the amount of power to be consumed from the amount of power to be generated.

Abstract
An operation planning method performed in a system including a power generation device, a first electric load operating using power generated by the power generation device, and a second electric load which generates heat using power generated by the power generation device. The operation planning method is performed to design an operation plan for the second electric load and includes: predicting, for individual unit time periods, an amount of power to be generated by the power generation device and an amount of power to be consumed by the first electric load; and designing the operation plan for the second electric load to operate during an operation period including the time period with the largest amount of reverse power, calculated by subtracting the amount of power to be consumed from the amount of power to be generated.
