Abstract
A method and a device for limiting the current in a temperature-dependent manner of an energy storage device for electrical energy adjusts a maximum permissible charging and/or discharging current of the energy storage device in dependence upon a temperature of the energy storage device, wherein the following steps are performed: determining multiple temperature values of the energy storage device that follow one another chronologically during a prevailing time interval; determining a prevailing mean temperature value of the energy storage device from the determined temperature values of the energy storage device during the prevailing time interval; comparing the determined prevailing mean value with a predetermined desired temperature value; and, if the determined prevailing mean value is greater than the desired temperature value, limiting the maximum permissible charging and/or discharging current of the energy storage device.
