同様に、CDモード用電力分配比算出部58は、使用中の副蓄電装置10-3について、SOCが上限値THに達するまでの第3蓄電装置10-3の充電余裕電力量C3を次式によって算出する。
そして、CDモード用電力分配比算出部58は、主蓄電装置10-1および副蓄電装置10-3の電力分配比をC1:C3として算出する。すなわち、充電時においては、主蓄電装置10-1と使用中の副蓄電装置10-3とが同時に上限値に達するように電力分配比が算出される。
ここで、CDモードにおける放電時は、接続切換有の使用パターンのときには、D1:D2=R1:(R2+R3)であるが、接続切換無の使用パターンのときには、CDモードを通じて不使用となる副蓄電装置に対応するR2またはR3を零に固定するので、D1:D2=R1:R2または、D1:D2=R1:R3とされる。
