Abstract
Provided are a secondary battery degradation determination method and a secondary battery degradation determination device which can detect degradation of a secondary battery in advance even before an engine starts. When it is determined in Step S1 that a vehicle is in a stop state, a stable-state open-circuit voltage OCV is measured in Step S2 and internal resistance R1 is calculated in Steps S3 and S4. On the other hand, when it is determined in Step S1 that a starter 21 is operated, a maximum discharge current value Inew is measured in Step S5 and a maximum discharge current value Is is updated in Steps S6 and S7. In Step S14, a minimum voltage Vs is calculated. In Step S15, the stable-state open-circuit voltage OCV and the minimum voltage Vs are compared with predetermined threshold values to perform the degradation determination of a secondary battery 10.
