Abstract: A device includes at least one isolating transformer. An input is coupled to the at least one isolating transformer and configured to receive input from an energy source. At least one power switch is coupled to the isolating transformer. A diode is coupled to the at least one isolating transformer. An energy storage medium is coupled to the diode. An inverter includes one or more inverter switches, an inverter input, and an inverter output. The inverter input is coupled to the diode and the energy storage medium. The inverter output is configured to be coupled to the power network, and the inverter is configured to create AC power for distribution to the power network. A controller is configured to modulate the at least one power switch to control power flow from the input and to modulate the state of the inverter switches to control power flow to the power network.
