Abstract: A secondary battery charger system in which a chargeable power is calculated on the basis of a difference between a charging target voltage and a cell voltage using a charging control unit that controls a charger used to charge a secondary battery, the secondary battery charger system including a charging threshold voltage setting unit configured to set the charging target voltage to be lower than a charging limitation voltage which is an upper limitation of the cell voltage allowable in design. The charging control unit stops the charging if a predetermined charging stop condition is satisfied while the cell voltage exceeds the charging target voltage and is lower than the charging limitation voltage.

Abstract: A battery degradation degree estimation device includes a total degradation degree detection unit configured to detect a present total degradation degree of a battery, a cycle degradation estimation unit configured to estimate a future cycle degradation degree due to charge/discharge of the battery, a storage degradation estimation unit configured to estimate a future storage degradation degree over time inside the battery, and a battery degradation estimation unit configured to estimate a future battery degradation degree on the basis of the present total degradation degree, the future cycle degradation degree and the future storage degradation degree.

Abstract: A battery temperature adjustment apparatus including a battery, a temperature adjustment section configured to operate by power supplied from an external power source or the battery and adjust a temperature of the battery by heating or cooling, a detection section configured to detect a temperature of the battery, and a control section configured to change an operating condition or an operating state of the temperature adjustment section according to whether or not the external power source to supply power to the battery is electrically connected, and in a case where the external power source is not electrically connected, restrict the operation of the temperature adjustment section so as to reduce power consumed in the battery as compared to a case where the external power source is electrically connected.
