A drive system for a submarine may include a DC power supply system for supplying electrical energy to a drive of the submarine and a plurality of battery strings, which each may comprise a plurality of series-connected battery modules. The battery strings may each be connected to a string connection unit via which the battery string can be selectively connected to or disconnected from the DC power supply system. The string current flowing in the battery string can be adjusted by the string connection unit. The present disclosure also concerns corresponding methods for operating the drive system of the submarine.
