Abstract

A control method including, by a computer, acquiring a current SOC value of the battery, acquiring history information related to a past power consumption amount in the vehicle, inputting the history information having been acquired to a learned model, and acquiring prediction information related to the necessary power amount, determining whether the current SOC value is larger than an optimum SOC value determined in advance for suppressing deterioration of the battery, upon determination that the current SOC value is larger than the optimum SOC value, calculating a target value of an SOC value of the battery based on the current SOC value, the optimum SOC value, and the prediction information, and outputting, to the charge and discharge device, control information instructing to discharge power from the battery to an electrical device outside the vehicle until the SOC value of the battery reaches the target value.
