Abstract
A method and apparatus for setting a maximum depth of discharge of an energy reservoir for a time period. The method includes: defining a first target aging value of the energy reservoir for a first time period; determining a first aging value that describes an aging of the energy reservoir during the first period; calculating a first difference between the first target aging value of the energy reservoir and the first aging value of the energy reservoir; defining a second target aging value of the energy reservoir for a second time period; calculating a maximum aging value of the energy reservoir for the second time period, based on the second target aging value and at least the first difference; calculating a maximum depth-of-discharge value based on the maximum aging value; setting the maximum depth of discharge of the energy reservoir for the second time period to the maximum depth-of-discharge value.
