摘要:
The invention relates, in particular, to a method for extending the useful life of a rechargeable energy store for use in a motor vehicle, such as for example, a double layer capacitor, a Li-ion store, a Li-ion capacitor or a NiMH store with several storage cells. According to the invention, the useful life of the energy store may be extended whereby the temperature of each storage cell is measured. Should the temperature of a storage cell exceed a reference value for the temperature of the storage cell the storage cell is partially discharged and the voltage thereof thus reduced.
