Abstract: A vehicle includes an electric onboard power system, in which electrical components and at least one lithium-ion battery are integrated. The lithium-ion battery includes a plurality of lithium-ion cells, each lithium-ion cell is based on a cell technology, and the cell technologies of at least two lithium-ion cells are different.

Abstract: An energy storage apparatus for an onboard electrical system of a motor vehicle has a first electrical energy store characterized by a first voltage characteristic curve defining the quiescent voltage of the first store depending on the relative state of charge of the first store, and a second electrical energy store which can be connected in parallel with the first electrical energy store by a controllable switching element and which is characterized by a second voltage characteristic curve defining the quiescent voltage of the second electrical energy store depending on the relative state of charge of the second store. A first voltage value range covered by the first voltage characteristic curve and a second voltage value range which is covered by the second voltage characteristic curve partially overlap. The energy storage apparatus further has a device for determining the state of charge of the first energy store and/or of the second energy store.

Abstract: The invention relates to a vehicle electrical system that includes a first energy accumulator which has a first maximum open circuit voltage when the first energy accumulator is fully charged, and a second energy accumulator which has a second maximum open-circuit voltage when the second energy accumulator is fully charged. The second maximum open circuit voltage is higher than the first maximum open circuit voltage. The vehicle electrical system also includes a generator configured to generate electrical energy for the vehicle electrical system and a control unit that is configured to detect a recuperation mode of the vehicle. The control unit is also configured to cause the generator, while the vehicle is in the recuperation mode, to generate electrical energy with a charge voltage which is in or above a buffer voltage range, wherein the buffer voltage range lies between the first maximum open circuit voltage and the second maximum open circuit voltage.
