Abstract

A battery module that includes a battery and a bidirectional DC-DC converter including a switching element that is arranged at a position where heat generated by the switching element is transmitted to the battery. The bidirectional DC-DC converter operates in a discharge mode in which DC power supplied from the battery is converted and supplied to an input/output unit, and in a charge mode in which DC power supplied from the input/output unit is converted and supplied to the battery. Moreover, a control unit forces the bidirectional DC-DC converter to operate in the discharge mode and to increase a switching frequency of the switching element in comparison with a switching frequency in normal driving, when a temperature in a periphery of the battery needs to be increased.
