A vehicle control unit, VCU, (110) for power management of a vehicle receives battery temperature data. The battery temperature data is indicative of a battery temperature (111) of a battery (120) of the vehicle. Based on the battery temperature (111) compared to a temperature threshold, the VCU determines a power split (133) for splitting a charge power (134) provided by a charging system (130). The power split (133) indicates a split of the charge power (134) into a first part (131) for charging the battery (120) by the charging system (130) and into a second part (132) for heating the battery (120) by a heating system (140). The VCU transmits information (112) about the first part (131) of the charge power (134) to the charging system (130) and information (113) about the second part (132) of the charge power (134) to the heating system (140).
