Method For Controlling A State Of Charge Of An Energy Storage Means Of A Motor Vehicle
A method for controlling a state of charge of an energy storage device of a motor vehicle. A control device receives a first operator control signal and, only if the first operator control signal is received by a first operator control element of an operator control device and describes a user request to change a state of charge, a first operating mode of the control device is activated, whereby the control device is coupled to a power control device. A second operating mode of the control device, in which the control device is coupled to a monetarization device, is activated only if the first operator control signal is received by a second operator control element of the operator control device, the signal describing a user request to transmit a monetary value to a data server device external to the motor vehicle.

- 11. A method for controlling a state of charge of an energy storage device of a motor vehicle comprising the steps carried out by a control device of the motor vehicle:
receiving a first operator control signal from an operator control device of the motor vehicle; only if the first operator control signal is received by a first operator control element of the operator control device and describes a user request to change a state of charge, activating a first operating mode of the control device or only if the first operator control signal is received by a second operator control element of the operator control device and describes a user request to transmit a monetary value to a data server device external to the motor vehicle, activating a second operating mode of the control device, and depending on the operating mode activated:
a) in the first operating mode, coupling of the control device to a power control device of the motor vehicle, and, depending on a further operator control signal, generating a control signal for controlling the state of charge of the energy storage device and transmitting the control signal to the power control device; or b) in the second operating mode of the control device, coupling of the control device to a monetarization device of the motor vehicle, and, depending on the further operator control signal, generating a control signal for transmitting the monetary value to the data server device external to the motor vehicle, and transmitting the control signal to the monetarization device.
