Abstract: A hybrid power system is disclosed. The hybrid power system may include a primary power source configured to provide a primary power, and an energy storage device coupled to the primary power source, the energy storage device configured to store excess primary power provided by the primary power source. The hybrid power system may further include a variable speed genset, the variable speed genset including a secondary power source configured to operate at a variable rotor speed to provide a secondary power responsive to power requirements of a load. The hybrid power system may also include a central controller communicatively coupled to the primary power source, the energy storage device, and the variable speed genset, the central controller configured to control the primary power source, the energy storage device, and the variable speed genset based on the power requirements of the load.

Abstract: An uninterruptible power supply includes an input and an output. The uninterruptible power supply may include a first power path between the input and the output. The uninterruptible power supply may also include a second power path between the input and the output. The second power path may include a rectifier and an inverter. The uninterruptible power supply may also include controls configured to operate the uninterruptible power supply to supply electricity to the output. In controlling the uninterruptible power supply, the controls may selectively operate in first mode by transmitting electricity from the inlet to the outlet via the first power path while operating the inverter to condition at least one characteristic of electricity at the output. The controls may also selectively operate the uninterruptible power supply in a second mode by transmitting electricity from the input to the output via the second power path.

Abstract: A control system for a power inverter is disclosed. The power inverter may be configured to supply power to a grid. The control system may include a plurality of output voltage sensors and a plurality of output current sensors configured to measure output line voltages and output line currents of the power inverter. The control system may further include a controller coupled to the power inverter. The controller may be configured to provide a control signal associated with a disturbance frequency to the power inverter. The controller may be further configured to determine an output power of the power inverter based on the output line voltages and output line currents, and determine an amplitude of oscillation in the output power caused by the disturbance frequency. The controller may also be configured to detect an islanding condition, if the amplitude of oscillation is below a threshold.
