Abstract
A hybrid ECU executes a program that includes the steps of: determining whether a deterioration degree of a battery is greater than a predetermined degree; when the deterioration degree of the battery is greater than the predetermined value, tightening the regulation of charging/discharging power to/from the battery; determining whether the deterioration degree of the battery is smaller than the predetermined value and; when the deterioration degree of the battery is smaller than the predetermined value, relaxing the regulation of charging/discharging power to/from the battery.
