Abstract: The present invention relates to an energy management system comprising an energy storage, a control system and a power converter supplying power to a load. The energy storage is arranged in individual energy units and the power converter is provided with a switching system for controlling the voltage over the load. The switching system comprises multiple parallel-connected power switches and at least one of the power switches is connected to each energy unit. The control system comprises individual control units, each being configured to monitor the status of a dedicated energy unit and produce an individual enable signal indicative of the status. Each power switch is configured to be controlled by the individual enable signal and a first control signal, wherein the control system is configured to connect multiple energy units in parallel to the load.
