The integrated
system includes, as subsystems, an
electrical energy storage device (6) and further subsystems, and at least one
metalworking equipment (1). The subsystems (1, 4, 6) are connected to each other directly or indirectly and to the
power grid (2) for the transmission of electrical energy. A
control unit (7) recognizes the current state (Z1, Z4, Z6) of the subsystems (1, 4, 6), a planned first withdrawal (E2) of electrical energy from the
power grid (2) with respect to a first
time range (T1), and a planned first operating mode (B1, B4) of the further subsystems (1, 4). Based on the planned first withdrawal (E2) and the planned first operating mode (B1, B4), the
control unit (7) determines the expected end state (Z6') of the
electrical energy storage device (6) with respect to the end of the first
time range (T1). The control device (7) defines a planned second extraction (E2') of electrical energy, taking into account the expected termination state (Z6') of the
electrical energy storage device (6) and the second operating
modes (B1', B4') of the further subsystems (1, 4) that are known to the control device (7) and are planned for the second
time range (T2) immediately following the first time range (T1). Based on the planned first operating
modes (B1, B4) and the second operating
modes (B1', B4'), the control device (7) operates the further subsystems (1, 4) during the two time ranges (T1, T2) and extracts electrical energy from the
supply network (2) in this case, according to the planned first extraction (E2) and the defined second extraction (E2').To define a planned second drawout of electrical energy (E2'), the
control unit (7) determines the demand for electrical energy (E1', E4') for the operation of further subsystems (1, 4) during the second time range (T2) based on a planned second operating mode (B1', B4'), and defines a second drawout of electrical energy (E2') from the
supply network (2) during the second time range (T2), taking into account the demand for electrical energy (E1', E4') for the operation of further subsystems (1, 4) during the second time range (T2), as well as the expected end state (Z6') of the electrical
energy storage device (6) and the desired target state (Z6*) of the electrical
energy storage device (6) at the end of the second time range (T2).
