A device for controlling and supplying energy to components in vehicles, in particular utility vehicles, includes at least one support element which is paired with at least one first actuator component, and a first energy storage device which is mounted on the support element and which is designed to supply energy to the first actuator component. The first actuator component and/or at least one first controller is mounted on the support element, the first controller being designed to at least partly actuate the first actuator component. Additionally, at least one second controller can be mounted on the support element. The second controller is designed to at least partly actuate at least one second actuator component, wherein the support element is not paired with the second actuator component. Alternatively or in addition to the second controller, a second energy storage device can be mounted on the support element. The second energy storage device is designed to supply energy to the second actuator component.
