An electrical energy storage device includes prismatic energy storage cells arranged adjacent to one another such that interfaces of adjacent storage cells run at a distance from one another such that the interfaces of the adjacent storage cells form an intermediate space. A respective first layer is arranged between the interfaces of adjacent storage cells, the first layer abutting one of the two interfaces of the adjacent storage cells under pressure. Either the respective first layer also abuts the second of the two interfaces of the adjacent storage cells under pressure, or a second layer is arranged between the interfaces of adjacent storage cells, the second layer abutting the second of the two interfaces of the adjacent storage cells under pressure. A heat-conducting device is arranged in or between the first layer and the second layer is conducted out of the intermediate space between the adjacent storage cells.

A battery with at least two battery cells, which are connected by at least one electric connection element to one another, and a superordinate control device. Each of the battery cells is provided with at least one galvanic element, a battery cell housing for accommodating the galvanic element, at least one sensor device for detecting a physical and/or chemical feature of the battery cell, and a communication device for communicating with the superordinate device. The superordinate device is adapted to control an energy flow in at least one of the battery cells and/or from at least one of the battery cells as a function of the physical and/or chemical features of the battery cell. The invention further also relates to a motor vehicle with such a battery.

An all-solid-state battery is provided that includes a cathode layer, an anode layer, and a solid electrolyte layer, in which a porosity of the solid electrolyte layer is equal to or less than 10%.
