Abstract
An apparatus for controlling an energy system having at least one energy unit and at least one DC/DC converter, wherein the DC/DC converter is coupled to at least one electrical component, and a power output to the electrical component can be controlled by the DC/DC converter, with the maximum power which can be output to the electrical component being determined by a power limit value of the DC/DC converter.The invention provides that the energy unit and the DC/DC converter and the electrical component are coupled via a limit-value management system which controls the power output such that, when power is demanded from the electrical component above the power limit value of the DC/DC converter, power is output up to the maximum power limit value.
