A method for controlling of recuperation power of a recuperation which are capable of drive (14) of a motor vehicle (12), comprising:– Determining a route temperature control outlay to that of the cooling or heating of the motor vehicle (12) represents the energy required and– Directing a tempering proportion of a recuperation power, the kinetic energy of the motor vehicle (12) has been removed, to a temperature control device (102), the temperature control portion of the converted recuperation power for heating or for cooling a motor vehicle interior (100) of the motor vehicle is used, wherein the size of the temperature control component as a function of the ahead lying tempering wall is controlled, and with increasing heating on wall, an increasing temperature control portion is passed to the temperature control device.
