Network infrastructure component, network system having a plurality of network infrastructure components, and use of the network system

A method comprising the step of using a distributed network system for supply purposes for at least one of a group consisting of

• the drive of a vehicle with an at least partly electrical drive,
• as supply system for regenerative energies,
• for operating network-independent electric tools,
• as buffer store for foreign networks, and
• as change station for exchanging energy stores;
• wherein the distributed network system is designed for transporting a network medium at a supply level, comprising a plurality of coupled network infrastructure components each comprising the following:
• at least one contact unit for connection to a further network infrastructure component, at least one coupling module for coupling a functional group, wherein the network infrastructure component is designed to communicate with a coupled functional group at least at a supply level, wherein the network infrastructure component is designed to communicate with at least one further network infrastructure component at least at the supply level and/or a data level, such that a self-configured network system for linking a plurality of functional groups can be produced with a network of a plurality of network infrastructure components.
