Abstract
Provided is a system and the like which further improves the user-friendliness of checking the amount of energy charge (e.g., amount of refuelling) for a mobile body (e.g., a vehicle) by effectively utilizing a function of a mobile terminal (e.g., a smartphone). A present amount of refuelling ΔFa(i) (present amount of energy charge) is estimated based on a deviation ΔD(i) and a fuel consumption Fe(i) (travel efficiency) when the deviation ΔD(i) of a present drivable distance D(i) from a last drivable distance D(i−1) of a vehicle X becomes a threshold ΔDth (>0) or higher. Accordingly, without the inconvenience that the user of the vehicle X inputs the fuelling amount into a mobile terminalevery time of refuel to the vehicle X, the estimation result of the fuelling amount can be automatically accumulated.
