An apparatus is described for actuating at least one piezoelectric actuating drive (1) of an injection nozzle for an internal combustion engine, comprising a control device (6) which cyclically actuates a charging circuit and a discharging circuit (2, 3) of the piezoelectric actuating drive (1). In order to enable a power-increasing actuation of the piezoelectric actuating drive (1) it is proposed that a capacitive equivalent load (9), which is connected to a charging stage (13) and electrically simulates the piezoelectric actuating drive (1), and an additional discharging stage (7) for piezoelectric actuating drive (1) and a changeover switch (8) which can be actuated by a control circuit (11) are provided, which switch connects the equivalent load (9) or the piezoelectric actuating drive (1) to the discharging circuit (3) which is controlled via the control device (6), and that after it has been decoupled from the discharging circuit (3) the piezoelectric actuating drive (1) can be discharged with a delay, via the additional discharging stage (7) which can be actuated by the control circuit (11), depending on at least one parameter which changes with the loading of the internal combustion engine.
