Abstract
A system for charging at least one energy reservoir cell in a controllable energy reservoir for controlling/supplying electrical energy to an n-phase electrical machine. The controllable energy reservoir has n parallel energy supply branches each having at least two series connected energy reservoir modules, each encompassing at least one electrical reservoir cell having an associated controllable coupling unit. The energy supply branches are connectable to a reference bus and a respective phase of the machine. As a function of control signals, the coupling units interrupt the respective energy supply branch or bypass the cells or switch the associated cells into the respective energy supply branch. To enable charging of at least one cell, at least two phases of the machine are connectable via at least one respective freewheeling diode to a positive pole of a charging device, and the reference bus is connectable to a negative pole of the device.
