ABSTRACT:
Generation power determining unit specifies efficiency characteristic based on identification ID of each vehicle. Generation power determining unit determines a power generation mechanism or mechanisms to be operated such that amount of power consumption by the power generation mechanism or mechanisms as a whole is minimized. By dividing power ΣPg* necessary for charging an electric storage unit that is in a low-charge state by the number of mechanisms to be operated (for example, 2 or 3), fuel consumption efficiency corresponding to generation power to be shared by each power generation mechanism in each case is obtained. There is a relation of η(½)>η(⅓) and, therefore, it can be understood that two power generation mechanisms are to be operated to minimize total amount of fuel consumption. Generation power determining unit transmits a power generation instruction to vehicles that correspond to the determined two power generation mechanisms.
