1. A method of managing electric power supply and demand with a computer, the method comprising:
sending, from the computer, a message for making a request of an electrified vehicle with a driver and a passenger to participate in a demand response for adjusting supply or demand of electric power in a power grid;
acquiring, by the computer, passenger information on at least one of an attribute and a preference of the passenger;
setting, by the computer, a first incentive for prompting the passenger to participate in the demand response based on the passenger information; and
based upon the passenger accepting the request to participate in the demand response, executing remote control of the electrified vehicle to cause the electrified vehicle to supply power to an electric vehicle power supply charger that is connected to the power grid.
