Claim:
1. A power supply control apparatus configured to perform idling stop control of an engine when a vehicle stops and in a partial period when the vehicle decelerates, wherein the vehicle includes the engine, a generator, and a battery, said power supply control apparatus comprising: a first calculating device configured to calculate a vehicle stop time rate, which is a rate of a time in which the vehicle is stopped, on the basis of a travel history of the vehicle; a second calculating device configured to calculate a stoppable time rate, which is a rate of a sum of a time in which the idling stop control is allowed when the vehicle decelerates and a time in which the vehicle is stopped, on the basis of the travel history, an estimating device configured to estimate an electric power amount associated with the idling stop control, on the basis of the calculated stoppable time rate if the idling stop control is allowed when the vehicle decelerates, and to estimate the electric power amount, on the basis of the calculated vehicle stop time rate if the idling stop control is not allowed when the vehicle decelerates; and a controlling device configured to control charge of the battery performed by power generation of the generator so as to avoid a remaining electric power amount of the battery falling below the estimated electric power amount.
