Charging Wait Time Calculation System and Method
First Claim
1. A charging wait time calculation system comprising:
- a charging information acquisition device configured to acquire charging information each time charging of an electric vehicle is executed at a charging station, the charging information being information on a charged capacity or a time required for charging;
a first identification information acquisition device configured to, each time charging of an electric vehicle is executed at a charging station, acquire identification information of the electric vehicle;
an information storage in which the charging information acquired by the charging information acquisition device and the identification information acquired by the first identification information acquisition device are stored so as to be associated with each other;
a second identification information acquisition device configured to acquire the identification information of an electric vehicle waiting for charging at a charging station as a calculation object for which a charging wait time is calculated;
an information extraction device configured to extract the charging information from the stored charging information in the information storage, the charging information corresponding to the identification information acquired by the second identification information acquisition device; and
a charging wait time calculator configured to calculate the charging wait time at the charging station as the calculation object on a basis of the charging information extracted by the information extraction device.

Abstract
Each time the charging of an electric vehicle is executed at a charging station, charging information is acquired which is information on a charged capacity by one charging or a time required for one charging, and identification information of the electric vehicle is acquired. Each charging time, the acquired charging information and the acquired identification information are stored in an information storage unit so that they are associated with each other. The identification information of an electric vehicle is acquired which is waiting for charging at a charging station as a calculation object for which a charging wait time is calculated. The charging information corresponding to the acquired identification information of the electric vehicle waiting for charging is extracted from the stored charging information. The charging wait time at the charging station as the calculation object is calculated on the basis of the extracted charging information.
