Abstract: A method for controlling a charging operation of an energy storage device of a motor vehicle. A control device carries out the following: establishment of a prioritization of a motor vehicle for user-specific recharging of the energy storage device on the basis of the established prioritization; determination of a charging capacity predetermined by the prioritization for a recharging operation, depending on the determined charging capacity; creation of a digital certificate, which describes the determined charging capacity; and transmission of the created certificate to a charging management device of the motor vehicle. Depending on the charging capacity described by the certificate transmitted to the charging management device of the motor vehicle: generation of a control signal, which describes a course of the charging operation with the described charging capacity; and transmission of the created control signal to an energy delivery device of a charging station apparatus.

Abstract: A system for controlling a charging process of a vehicle. A control device that is designed for the purpose of verifying, based on theft information, whether the vehicle has been reported as stolen and to control a charging process of the vehicle in dependence on this verification. The vehicle itself includes the control device. Furthermore, a vehicle having such a control device as well as a method for controlling a charging process of a vehicle is provided.

Abstract: A method for operating a covering apparatus for covering a connection element of a motor vehicle. The connection element is designed as a junction between an energy delivery apparatus external to the motor vehicle and an energy storage unit and is designed for filling and/or recharging the energy storage unit with an energy source. The covering apparatus can preferably be designed as a charging flap or as a fuel tank cover. A release device carries out the following: determination that the motor vehicle is located within a predetermined radius of the energy delivery apparatus; generation of a release signal, which describes a release of an access to the connection element through opening of the covering apparatus.
