Abstract
A battery for storing electrical energy includes: a plurality of battery modules that are electrically connected by an electrical circuit, and a switching unit that includes a plurality of switches arranged on the electrical circuit and designed to connect the battery modules in series in the electrical circuit during a phase of the battery being charged by a charger. The switching unit also includes a system for balancing the charging of the battery modules, which is arranged on the electrical circuit and modifies the electrical circuit to divert a portion of the current being delivered to one of the battery modules which is being overcharged to another of the battery modules which is being undercharged, in a mixed phase during which the battery is simultaneously being charged by the charger and discharged into a consumer circuit that the battery is supplying with electrical power.
