7. A method of providing a charge-discharge capacity of a secondary battery system, comprising steps of:
inputting the charge-discharge capacity capable of providing to the whole of the plurality of users to a user interface providing device; and
setting an account of a user, who can execute the logon, to the user interface providing device,
the user interface providing device, comprising:
an acquisition part acquiring a charge-discharge capacity capable of providing to a whole of a plurality of users other than a main user in a charge-discharge capacity of a secondary battery system;
a receiving part receiving a logon of a user included in the plurality of users other than the main user;
a determination part determining a usable charge-discharge capacity for a logged-on user, who has been received the logon by the receiving part, from the charge-discharge capacity capable of providing to the whole of the plurality of users; and
a generation part generating information indicating contents of a user interface screen including a screen element indicating the usable charge-discharge capacity for the logged-on user,
wherein the acquisition part acquires a plurality of priorities given to the plurality oi users, respectively,
the determination part determines the usable large-discharge capacity for the logged-on user so that the logged-on user laving higher priority can preferentially use the charge-discharge capacity of the secondary battery system; and
the secondary battery system includes a natrium-sulfur battery system including a natrium-sulfur battery.
