A power electronics interface in a microsource controller allows efficient
connection in a power system of small, low cost and reliable distributed
generators such as microturbines, fuel cells and photovoltaic. Power
electronics provide the control and flexibility to insure stable
operation for large numbers of distributed generators. The power
electronics controls are designed to insure that new generators can be
added to the system without modification of existing equipment. A
collection of sources and loads can connect to or isolate from the
utility grid in a rapid and seamless fashion, each inverter can respond
effectively to load changes without requiring data from other sources,
and voltage sag and system imbalances can be corrected.
