Abstract
A power supply system includes power storage devices, converters and a converter ECU controlling the converters. In temperature increase control of power storage devices, converter ECU determines an electric power transferred between the power storage devices via a main positive bus line and a main negative bus line as well as a transfer direction of the electric power, based on an allowable discharge power and an allowable charge power of each power storage device, and controls the converters to transfer the determined electric power between the power storage devices.
