1. An electric power management system, comprising:

  • an electric power management device to manage consumed electric power of an electric device which receives supply of electric power from the outside;

    a measuring device to acquire either or both of electric power information which specifies consumed electric power of said electric device and environment information which specifies a peripheral environment of said electric device; and

    a database, whereinsaid databasestores, as system information, information specifying, for every said electric device, a user entity which uses said electric device, a location to supply electric power to said electric device, and said measuring device associated with said electric device, and furthermore, in advance, for every said user entity or for every location where said electric device is supplied with electric power, stores a needlessness condition which is configured based on either or both of said electric power information and said environment information, and specifies a case where said electric device consumes an electric power needlessly, andsaid electric power management device comprises;

    a needlessness condition interpretation unit which, based on said system information, specifies an electric device and measuring device associated with said needlessness condition, and furthermore, based on said needlessness condition, configures a condition by which it can be determined that a specified electric device uses electric power needlessly;

    an information collection unit to collect either or both of said electric power information and said environment information which are acquired by said measuring device; and

    an electric power analysis unit which determines whether either or both of said electric power information and said environment information which are collected from a measuring device specified by said needlessness interpretation unit fulfill a condition configured by said needlessness interpretation unit, and in the case of fulfilling it, determines that needlessness of electric power consumption has arisen.
