    Abstract: The power supply apparatus includes a power transmission apparatus configured to transmit power to a power reception apparatus of the vehicle by non-contact and a processor configured to control the power transmission apparatus, detect a pickup/dropoff operation at the vehicle when power is being supplied by non-contact from the power supply apparatus to the vehicle, and detect a number of surrounding vehicles being supplied with power by non-contact in a predetermined range at surroundings of the power supply apparatus. The processor is configured to decrease power transmitted from the power transmission apparatus to the power reception apparatus when detecting a pickup/dropoff operation, and determine an amount of decrease of the transmitted power based on the number of surrounding vehicles.

    Abstract: In a hybrid vehicle, when a host vehicle is predicted to enter the inside of an engine drive restricted zone where operation of an internal combustion engine (20) is restricted, it is judged if congestion occurs or congestion is predicted as occurring in at least one of a running route leading to the inside of the engine drive restricted zone and a running route at the inside of the engine drive restricted zone. When it is judged that congestion occurs or congestion is predicted as occurring in at least one of a running route leading to the inside of the engine drive restricted zone and a running route at the inside of the engine drive restricted zone, an SOC amount of a battery (3) when the host vehicle enters the inside of the engine drive restricted zone is made to increase compared to when it is judged that congestion does not occur or congestion is predicted as not occurring at both of a running route leading to the inside of the engine drive restricted zone and a running route at the inside of the engine drive restricted zone.
