ABSTRACT:
An ECU executes a program including the steps of: calculating regenerative power value P based on a brake pressure; calculating limit charging power WIN(B) to a battery; calculating limit charging power WIN(C) to a capacitor; when it is determined that regenerative power value P is larger than the sum of WIN(B) and WIN(C), estimating that a large regenerative energy sufficient to fully charge the capacitor even if the battery is charged with priority would be generated; and transmitting a control signal to set output voltage of a boost converter to be not higher than the voltage of the capacitor so as to charge the battery with priority.
