APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING POWER SUPPLIED TO ON-VEHICLE ELECTRICAL LOADS
First Claim
1. A power control apparatus for vehicles, which is applied to a vehicle provided with a receiving port connected to an external power supply device placed outside the vehicle and on-vehicle electric loads including a second battery storing therein power supplied from the external power supply device, comprising:
- power supply processing means performing a power supply process while the vehicle is stopped, the power supply process being used for supplying the electric loads with a desired power while the vehicle is stopped,wherein the power supply process means includes;
planning means for planning the power supply process for the stop of the vehicle through prediction of cost required for supplying the desired power, the prediction being based on future predicted power cost information; and
performance means for performing a process planned by the planning means.

Abstract
A power control apparatus is applied to a vehicle provided with a receiving port connected with an external power supply device placed outside the vehicle and on-vehicle electrical loads including a second battery which stores power supplied from the external power supply device via the receiving port. The power control apparatus for vehicles has power supply processing means that performs a power supply process for supplying desired power to the loads during a stop of the vehicle. This power supply processing means predicts cost required to supply the desired power, based on future predicted power cost information, in planning a power supply process needed during the stop of the vehicle. This planned power supply process is performed.
