A method for charging electric energy stores comprising the following steps: - connecting at least two electric energy stores to be charged to in each case one charger (L j i), - charging the at least two electric energy stores each with in each case one charging power (p j i) assigned to the respective charger (L j i), and - performing closed-loop control with respect to the charging powers (p j i), wherein -- the instantaneous charging power (p j i) of each charger (L j i) is determined, -- the instantaneous charging powers (p j i) are added up to give an instantaneous total charging power (P j), -- the instantaneous total charging power (P j) is compared with a predefined upper charging power limit (O j), and -- at least one of the charging powers (p j i) assigned to the respective chargers (L j i) is reduced when the instantaneous total charging power (P j) is greater than the predefined upper charging power limit (O j), characterized in that the closed-loop control of the charging powers (p j i) is dependent on states of charge (Z j i) of the respective electric energy stores, wherein, when the upper charging power limit (O j) is exceeded, first the charging power (p j i) for at least one of the at least two electric energy stores whose state of charge (Z j i) is higher than the state of charge (Z j i) of the other electric energy stores is reduced, wherein the electric energy stores are categorized into different priority classes in accordance with their state of charge, wherein electric energy stores with a low state of charge (Z j i) are classified into higher priority classes than those with a high state of charge (Z j i), wherein throttling also takes place for chargers (L j i) in higher priority classes only when all chargers (L j i) in a lower priority class are being operated at a minimum power level (S j i) assigned to the respective priority class. - connecting at least two electric energy stores to be charged to in each case one charger (L j i), - charging the at least two electric energy stores each with in each case one charging power (p j i) assigned to the respective charger (L j i), and - performing closed-loop control with respect to the charging powers (p j i), wherein -- the instantaneous charging power (p j i) of each charger (L j i) is determined, -- the instantaneous charging powers (p j i) are added up to give an instantaneous total charging power (P j), -- the instantaneous total charging power (P j) is compared with a predefined upper charging power limit (O j), and -- at least one of the charging powers (p j i) assigned to the respective chargers (L j i) is reduced when the instantaneous total charging power (P j) is greater than the predefined upper charging power limit (O j), -- the instantaneous charging power (p j i) of each charger (L j i) is determined, -- the instantaneous charging powers (p j i) are added up to give an instantaneous total charging power (P j), -- the instantaneous total charging power (P j) is compared with a predefined upper charging power limit (O j), and -- at least one of the charging powers (p j i) assigned to the respective chargers (L j i) is reduced when the instantaneous total charging power (P j) is greater than the predefined upper charging power limit (O j), the closed-loop control of the charging powers (p j i) is dependent on states of charge (Z j i) of the respective electric energy stores, wherein, when the upper charging power limit (O j) is exceeded, first the charging power (p j i) for at least one of the at least two electric energy stores whose state of charge (Z j i) is higher than the state of charge (Z j i) of the other electric energy stores is reduced, wherein the electric energy stores are categorized into different priority classes in accordance with their state of charge, wherein electric energy stores with a low state of charge (Z j i) are classified into higher priority classes than those with a high state of charge (Z j i), wherein throttling also takes place for chargers (L j i) in higher priority classes only when all chargers (L j i) in a lower priority class are being operated at a minimum power level (S j i) assigned to the respective priority class.
