Abstract: A server includes a storage storing data on chargers each configured to charge or discharge electric power to or from a vehicle with an electrical storage device, and a processor configured to send a user of the vehicle a message that makes a proposal to charge or discharge the vehicle by using at least one of the chargers when the vehicle travels toward a destination. The processor is configured to acquire, for each of the chargers, power supply and demand information on power demand or supply in a power grid of a region in which the charger is installed, extract a charger installed in a region with larger power demand or supply than another region from among the chargers based on predetermined information including the power supply and demand information, and send the message that makes a proposal to charge or discharge the vehicle by using the extracted charger.

Abstract: A server includes a communicator and a processor. The communicator is configured to receive a reservation request signal requesting a reservation to use a charging station by an electrified vehicle. The reservation request signal includes information indicating that balancing power control is requested, when the electrified vehicle wants to perform the balancing power control. The processor is configured to set, based on the reservation request signal, a reservation time period during which the electrified vehicle uses the charging station. The processor is configured to set the reservation time period to a longer period when the reservation request signal includes the information indicating that the balancing power control is requested than when the reservation request signal does not include the information indicating that the balancing power control is requested.
