Method for determining and using a model for an energy storage of a vehicle

A method for determining a power limit of an energy storage of a vehicle for use in determining a sequence of actions for the vehicle, using a model for the energy storage, the method comprising:

• providing or obtaining at least one input value for the model, wherein the at least one input value (u) comprises power to be handled at a time point of one of the actions, and/or power to be handled by the energy storage;
• determining (320) an output value (yn) by means of the model, wherein the output value comprises a power limit at a time point subsequent to the time point indicating a maximum amount of power to be handled by the energy storage;
• and
• providing or outputting the output value while using the output value in determining the sequence of actions.

A non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium containing instructions that when executed on a computer cause the computer to

• provide (300) a plurality of different predetermined power limits (P1, P2), wherein a predetermined power limit is respectively indicative of a maximum power to be handled for a predetermined period of time (T1, T2) by the energy storage (120);
• determine (310), based on the plurality of predetermined power limits (P1, P2), a model (312) outputting an output value (yn) based on at least one input value (u), by determining parameters (K, T, b) of the model as a function of the plurality of power limits,
• wherein the at least one input value (u) comprises a power to be handled by the energy storage and/or a power to be handled by the vehicle, which is planned for a time point,
• wherein the output value (yn) comprises a power limit at a time point subsequent to the time point that indicates a maximum power which can be handled by the energy storage;
• and
• use the model (312) to determine a sequence (140) of actions for the vehicle (100).
