A vehicle configured to be able to suitably judge whether to be supplied with power by noncontact while running, that is, a vehicle configured to receive power from a ground power supplying apparatus by noncontact, comprising a control device for controlling reception of power from the ground power supplying apparatus while running based on charging scheduled after the vehicle finishes running.

A power transfer system includes: a compact mobility; a ground unit disposed on a second lane which is a driving lane for the compact mobility, the ground unit being capable of wireless power transfer; and a controller that controls the ground unit. The compact mobility has an amount of electric power that can be stored less than a predetermined amount, and travels at a speed dependent on electric power wirelessly received from the ground unit. When a pedestrian is sensed in the second lane, the controller forces the compact mobility to decelerate by reducing transmission power from the ground unit to the compact mobility, as compared to when the pedestrian is not sensed in the second lane.

An apparatus for paying a wireless charging fee for an electric vehicle while being driven may include: an electric power receiver configured to perform wireless charging of an electric vehicle; a toll fee payment processor configured to perform a fee collection processing with respect to the electric vehicle in response to a toll fee payment request from a gantry; and a controller configured to generate information on an accumulated charging amount of the electric vehicle before the electric vehicle passes through the gantry in response to the toll fee payment request from the gantry and transmit the information on the accumulated charging amount to the toll fee payment processor.

The position information transmission device is provided at one of a ground side apparatus and a moving object performing non-contact power transmission by magnetic field resonance coupling with the ground side apparatus, and includes an alternating current power generation circuit for generating alternating current power, an alternating current magnetic field generation circuit for generating an alternating current magnetic field as a position signal when the alternating current power is applied; and a power inflow suppression part for keeping induced electromotive force due to an alternating current magnetic field generated from a power transmission side resonance circuit for the non-contact power transmission from flowing to the alternating current power generation circuit.

A vehicle receiving power from a ground power supplying apparatus by noncontact includes: a vehicle side first communication device for directly or indirectly communicating with the ground power supplying apparatus by utilizing wide area wireless communication; a vehicle side second communication device for directly communicating with the ground power supplying apparatus by utilizing short range wireless communication; and a control device for making the vehicle side first communication device transmit vehicle information tied with vehicle identification information to the ground power supplying apparatus and making the vehicle side second communication device transmit the vehicle identification information to the ground power supplying apparatus after the vehicle side first communication device transmits the vehicle information, when the vehicle receives power from the ground power supplying apparatus.

A ground power supplying apparatus provided with a power transmission apparatus having a resonance circuit and transmitting power to the vehicle and a control device shifting a state of the ground power supplying apparatus to a standby state when a predetermined suspension condition stands if the state of the ground power supplying apparatus is a main power transmission state or a power transmission active state and shifting a state of the ground power supplying apparatus to the power transmission active state when the suspension condition no longer stands if the state of the ground power supplying apparatus is the standby state.

The vehicle includes a first communication device for directly or indirectly communicating with the ground power supplying apparatus by wide area wireless communication with a communication distance of greater than or equal to 10 meters, and an electronic control unit. The electronic control unit is configured to request the ground power supplying apparatus cancel supply of power to the vehicle by the wide area wireless communication when a predetermined condition is satisfied.

The power supply system includes a plurality of power supply apparatuses configured to transmit power to vehicles by non-contact. The plurality of power supply apparatuses includes a first power supply apparatus installed in a first region positioned on a road directly connected to an exit of an area in which operation of internal combustion engines is prohibited or restricted and where an amount of traffic of vehicles at least temporarily becomes equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold value, and a second power supply apparatus installed in a second region different from the first region. An amount of power supplied from the first power supply apparatus to a vehicle is made greater than an amount of power supplied from the second power supply apparatus to a vehicle.

The power supply system includes a plurality of power supply apparatuses installed at a road at surroundings of an area in which operation of internal combustion engines is prohibited or restricted and configured so as to transmit power to vehicles by non-contact. The plurality of power supply apparatuses include a first power supply apparatus installed at a first point where a distance of a running route up to an entrance of the area or a straight route up to the entrance or a boundary of the area is equal to or less than a predetermined distance, and a second power supply apparatus installed at a second point where the distance is greater than the predetermined distance. An amount of power supply to a vehicle from the first power supply apparatus is made greater than an amount of power supply to a vehicle from the second power supply apparatus.

A vehicle includes: a controller; a power receiving device that contactlessly receives power from a power transmitting facility; a battery chargeable using the power received by the power receiving device; and a power transmitting device that contactlessly outputs, to another vehicle, the power received by the power receiving device. The other vehicle contactlessly receives power from each of the power transmitting facility and the power transmitting device. When the other vehicle is unable to contactlessly receive the power from the power transmitting facility, the controller controls the power transmitting device to contactlessly output the power received by the power receiving device to the other vehicle in accordance with a request from the other vehicle.
