Abstract

A battery selection device has a preparation amount information acquisition component, a supply amount information acquisition component, a battery candidate extraction component, and a determination processor. The preparation amount information acquisition component acquires preparation amount information indicating the scheduled date and time of a loan and the required charge amount. The supply amount information acquisition component acquires supply amount information indicating the full charge power capacity and the current charge amount of each battery. On the basis of the preparation amount information and the supply amount information, the battery candidate extraction component selects loaner battery candidates, which are batteries that can be charged to the required charge amount by the scheduled date and time of the loan. The determination processor picks out a loaner battery on the basis of the predicted progress of deterioration of batteries.
