Abstract
A controller for controlling a charging current to a lithium-ion secondary battery controls the charging current so that lithium expected to dissolve after a stop of charging is permitted to deposit on an anode of the lithium-ion secondary battery. For example, the controller controls the charging current so that the charging current does not exceed a predetermined upper limit value. If a predetermined permission condition is satisfied, the controller permits the lithium expected to dissolve after the stop of charging to deposit on the anode of the lithium-ion secondary battery by permitting the upper limit value to become larger than a Li deposition limit value in a predetermined permission period.
