HYDROGEN SUPPLY SYSTEM, RESERVATION DEVICE, RESERVATION METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM: abstract simplified (18109280)

• This abstract for appeared for patent application number 18109280 Titled 'HYDROGEN SUPPLY SYSTEM, RESERVATION DEVICE, RESERVATION METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes a hydrogen supply system for vehicles. The system includes several components: a facility identification unit that identifies a fuel supply facility near the vehicle's travel route, a calculation unit that estimates the remaining amount of hydrogen fuel when the vehicle reaches the fuel supply facility based on information transmitted from the vehicle, a determination unit that decides whether the vehicle needs to refuel based on the estimated remaining amount, and a registration unit that reserves a replenishment amount at the fuel supply facility if refueling is required.

Original Abstract Submitted

A hydrogen supply system includes: a facility identification unit that identifies a fuel supply facility in the vicinity of a travel route of a vehicle to a destination; a calculation unit that calculates an estimated remaining amount of hydrogen fuel at an arrival time when the vehicle reaches the fuel supply facility on the basis of remaining amount information indicating a remaining amount of the hydrogen fuel transmitted from the vehicle; a determination unit that determines whether or not refueling of the vehicle is required on the basis of the estimated remaining amount; and a registration unit that registers an estimated replenishment amount based on the estimated remaining amount and the arrival time as a usage reservation at the fuel supply facility in a case in which the determination unit determines that the refueling is required.
