Abstract
A method for operating an electrical energy storage device for a motor vehicle, which energy storage device includes an energy storage unit, which has an energy storage unit voltage during normal operation, and which, during a charging process, is charged by electrical energy provided at a charging connection point at a charging voltage that is lower than the energy storage unit voltage. Based on the energy storage unit voltage and the charging voltage, the energy storage unit is divided into a plurality of energy storage subunits, at least one of which has an energy storage subunit voltage that corresponds to the charging voltage and is electrically connected to the charging connection point for the at least partial charging of the energy storage unit.
