    Abstract: Charging method and charging apparatus for traction battery are provided. The charging apparatus includes N energy storage units connected in parallel. Each energy storage unit includes an energy storage battery and a first DC/DC converter connected to the energy storage battery. Each charging period of the charging apparatus includes a stage in which a traction battery is charged and a stage in which the traction battery discharges to the N energy storage units. The charging method includes: obtaining a first parameter of each energy storage unit in the discharge stage; determining, based on the first parameter, a first current output by the first DC/DC converter in each energy storage unit, where the first current is inversely proportional to the first parameter of the energy storage battery; and sending the first current to the first DC/DC converter. The energy storage battery receives, via the first DC/DC converter, electrical energy released by the traction battery.
