Abstract

invention describes a modular energy storage direct converter system (10) which comprises the following: a control device (20) and at least one bridge branch (12) which comprises The a plurality of modules (14) which are connected in series, wherein each of said modules (14) comprises a storage element for electrical energy, in particular a battery, or an energy conversion element. Said modules (14) are designed and can be actuated such that the storage element or energy conversion element of a module can be selectively deactivated, and that the storage elements or energy conversion elements of two modules, which are separated by at least one intermediate module with a deactivated storage element/energy conversion element, can be connected selectively in parallel and in series.
