Abstract: A vehicle battery controlling apparatus is provided and includes a sensor that senses a SOC of a battery connected to a switch among a plurality of batteries and a controller that controls the on/off of the switch based on a first result of determining whether a vehicle enters a fuel-cut section and a second result of comparing the SOC of the battery with at least one or more predetermined reference values. The apparatus improves fuel efficiency by increasing energy regeneration, and improves battery durability by minimizing battery SOC in a non-regeneration section.

Abstract: A method of controlling a generator for a vehicle includes calculating a current charging amount and a target charging amount of a battery, estimating regenerative energy of the battery based on predicted vehicle travel information, and determining whether a road section in which the vehicle travels is a regenerative braking section based on the predicted vehicle travel information and vehicle position information. The generator and the battery are controlled so the generator maximally charges the battery when the road section in which the vehicle travels is the regenerative braking section and so the energy of the battery and a charging amount of the battery is the target charging amount when the road section in which the vehicle travels is not the regenerative braking section.
