Abstract:
1. A method for driving a micro-hybrid system with braking recovery for a vehicle, said micro-hybrid system ( 1 ) including an electric energy storage unit ( 12 ) and an electronic control unit ( 14 ), said electric energy storage unit ( 12 ) including a plurality of elementary cells (C 1 to C 10 ) mounted in series, the method comprising the steps of: reading elementary electric voltages (V) of said elementary cells (C deriving a state information on a state of the electric energy storage unit ( said state information including state of health data comprising the difference in voltage DeltaV=Vmax−Vmin between a maximum elementary voltage (Vmax) defined by a voltage of the elementary cell which is the most charged (C said state of health data (DeltaV) being representative of the capacity of the electric energy storage unit ( the method further comprising the step of defining an optimal driving of said micro-hybrid system (
