Zusammenfassung:	A method is provided for transferring energy from a stationary unit to a movable unit of a linear transport system. The system includes a guide rail for guiding the movable unit, a plurality of stationary units, a controller, and a linear motor for driving the movable unit along the guide rail. The linear motor includes a stator and a rotor. The stator comprises the stationary units, each having one or more drive coils. The rotor is arranged on the movable unit, and has one or a more magnets. In addition, the stationary units each have one or more energy-transmitting coils, and the movable unit has at least one energy-receiving coil. The controller determines position data for the energy-receiving coil, selects at least one energy-transmitting coil based on the position data, and outputs a control signal to the stationary unit, with identification information for identifying the energy-transmitting coil.
