A circuit arrangement can carry out a method for controlling the light transmission of an electrochromic glass that involves generating a control voltage that is applied to the electrochromic glass to bring about a desired transparency or lack of transparency. The method optimizes, i.e. minimizes, the electrical energy that must be applied to the electrochromic glass, with respect to magnitude and duration, while achieving the desired degree of transparency very quickly. The actual voltage on the glass is measured at certain intervals and compared with a reference voltage that corresponds to a desired light transmission. A control voltage of positive or negative polarity is applied to the electrochromic glass for a certain charging or discharging period, depending on the deviation of the actual voltage from the reference value, and the actual voltage on the glass is again measured and compared with the reference voltage. These steps are repeated until the actual voltage on the glass is substantially equal to the reference voltage. The control voltage is then switched off or reduced such that no control current flows in the glass, until a subsequent measurement determines that the actual voltage has fallen below the reference voltage by more than an acceptable threshold difference amount, at which point the control voltage is again switched on.
