The server acquires first data concerning a load applied to a body of an electric mobile apparatus, acquires second data concerning the performance of a storage battery mounted on the mobile apparatus, calculates a remaining lifetime of the body on the basis of the first data, calculates a remaining lifetime of the battery on the basis of the second data, compares the remaining lifetime of the body with the remaining lifetime of the storage battery, and instructs at least one of an activation of an unused function and an enhancement of a used function among a plurality of functions consuming the electric power of the mobile apparatus when the remaining lifetime of the body is shorter than the remaining lifetime of the storage battery.

Information processing method, control device, and information processing system calculating remaining life of battery

In a calculation system, a data acquisition unit is configured to acquire operation data of a battery, the operation data including at least voltages and currents measured by a management device at a plurality of time points, and states of charge (SOCs) estimated based on at least one of the voltages and the currents, the management device being configured to manage the battery. An extraction unit is configured to, extract, as sample data, a set of an SOC and a voltage from sets of the SOCs and the voltages the plurality of time points included in the operation data in a period in which the battery is regarded as resting, the period being specified based on the currents. An estimation unit is configured to estimate an SOC-open circuit voltage (OCV) characteristic of the battery based on the extracted sample data.

Calculation system, battery characteristic estimation method, and battery characteristic estimation program

In a vehicle power supply system mounted on an electric vehicle, a vehicle controller switches a discharge power limit to a motor during travel of the electric vehicle according to degradation information of a battery module to which a plurality of cells are connected, the degradation information being calculated in advance before the travel of the electric vehicle. For example, the vehicle controller switches a limit of a maximum acceleration and/or maximum speed of the electric vehicle as the switching of the discharge power limit.
