Abstract: A power controller adapted for operating a set of power sources includes a power characteristic input and a communications connection and a controller module. The controller module is adapted for obtaining a power characteristic at the power characteristic input, the power characteristic related to a quantity of power supplied from an associated power source to a common power bus, for obtaining at least one power system message received at the communications connection, and for determining a present share of desired power to be supplied from the associated power source.
