Abstract

A method and device is disclosed for application of a pressure to a battery which has at least one or more cells, in order to reduce adverse effects on operation which occur because of different battery states of charge. The device is designed to carry out the method such that the pressure is adjusted as a function of the respective battery volume and/or of the respective battery state of charge.
