Original Abstract Submitted

a management system includes a plurality of resources configured to be electrically connected to an external power supply, and a management device configured to manage the resources. the management device includes a planning unit and a management unit. the planning unit is configured to determine a power balancing plan of each of the resources by using first information on a use schedule of each of the resources and second information indicating a magnitude of an environmental load in a process of generating electric power to be supplied by the external power supply. the management unit is configured to manage the resources to cause each of the resources to operate according to the power balancing plan or a modified power balancing plan in power balancing of the external power supply.
