Abstract
An output current of an alternator and a load current are detected by current sensors 5 and 6. When the output current of the alternator has a predetermined value or lower, generation of electricity by the alternator is stopped. When the load current has a predetermined value or higher, generation of electricity is resumed. When the load current is increased, a load-responsive control for the alternator and an intake air increasing control is performed, and the generation of electricity of the alternator is stopped at an acceleration time of the engine, and the output of the alternator is gradually increased.
