The temperature of a battery is raised by an electric heater. A planning unit of an ECU creates a temperature raising plan. A charge electric power amount fee unit price calculation unit calculates a charge electric power amount fee unit price. The temperature raising plan is created such that electric power of the battery is supplied to the electric heater in a time slot in which an electric power amount fee unit price of the external power supply is higher than the charge electric power amount fee unit price, and electric power of the external power supply is supplied to the electric heater in a time slot in which the electric power amount fee unit price is equal to or lower than the charge electric power amount fee unit price. A power controller supplies electric power to the electric heater based on the temperature raising plan.
An electrified vehicle that includes a storage battery configured to be charged by electric power to be supplied from an external power supply, the electrified vehicle comprising:
A temperature control method of a storage battery of which a temperature is raised by a temperature raising device, the storage battery being mounted on a vehicle and configured to be charged from an external power supply, in which the temperature raising device is configured to raise the temperature of the storage battery by using electric power, the temperature control method comprising:
