Abstract

The present application provides a charging policy setting method and apparatus, relating to the field of batteries. The method includes, obtaining a plurality of different core working parameters upon charging of a target core under a target charging condition at a target charging rate corresponding to the target charging condition; determining a maximum charging rate corresponding to each charging duration under the target charging condition according to the plurality of different core working parameters; and setting a charging policy under the target charging condition according to each charging duration under the target charging condition and the maximum charging rate corresponding to each charging duration. Thus, when the target core is charged at the set charging policy for each charging duration under the target charging condition, the target core is charged at the maximum charging rate corresponding to the charging duration, ensuring a fast charging speed and a high charging efficiency.
