Abstract
A vehicle is capable of receiving electric power supplied from a charger and capable of receiving electric power supplied from a charging mat. The charging mat is movable and capable of wireless power transfer. A method for providing a vehicle charging service includes a first step and a second step. The first step is giving, by a server, an instruction for installing the charging mat on a lane at which charging congestion is detected or predicted to occur, the charging congestion being traffic congestion for charging the electric power supplied from the charger. The second step is transmitting the electric power from the charging mat when the vehicle is detected above the charging mat installed on the lane in accordance with the instruction, and transmitting no electric power from the charging mat when the vehicle is not detected above the charging mat.
