A power source apparatus for an electric automobile is provided with a battery
system, having a driving battery to power an automobile driving motor and a battery
control circuit to control driving battery charging and discharging as well as
to compute driving battery remaining capacity, and an accessory battery to power
automobile electrical accessories. When the automobile is in the stationary state
a, charging circuit, which controls charging between the driving battery and accessory
battery, charges the driving battery to a specified state with accessory battery
power. The battery control circuit corrects the value of driving battery remaining
capacity to a specified battery capacity, and subsequently charges the accessory
battery with the driving battery to bring driving battery remaining capacity to
a specified level.
