<p>An electric vehicle according to the present invention is provided with a driving motor (13) adapted to be driven by the electric power from a storage battery (11), an air-conditioner (1), and a regenerative brake means adapted to generate during the deceleration of a vehicle regenerative power by temporarily using the motor (13) as a generator, and charge to storage battery (11) with this power. This electric vehicle is further provided with a means (18) for determining a quantity of excessive regenerative power on the basis of the regenerative power generated by the regenerative brake means and a permissible quantity of regenerative power of the storage battery (11) at this point in time, and a means for distributing the excessive regenerative power on the basis of the quantity of excessive regenerative power. The increasing of the efficiency of the air-conditioner (1) and the saving of power can be attained by stopping the operation of the air-conditioner (1) after increasing the air-conditioning capacity with the excessive regenerative power, and by increasing the air-conditioning efficiency by accumulating the excessive regenerative power as heat in heat accumulating means (30, 34).</p> |
