Abstract: A utility-scale energy storage and conversion system can operate two or more inverter groups such that their reactive power commands are proportional to their available reactive power range. The control system can therefore distribute the reactive power commands in proportion to the available Q range, thereby ensuring that all inverters in the utility-scale energy storage and conversion system 100 operate with the same Q “headroom”. In addition, the utility-scale energy storage and conversion system can use an on-load tap changer (LTC) to adjust a terminal voltage associated with a first group of inverters and a second group of inverters. The first group of inverters can be associated with a first rating and the second group of inverters can be associated with a second rating that is greater than the first rating.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for voltage adjustment of memory dies based on weighted feedback are described. A supply voltage may be measured at various areas of a memory die, weights may be applied to the measured voltages based on the area from which the particular voltage was measured. The supply voltage may be adjusted based on the weighted signals. The signals may be weighted using digital or analog techniques. Different durations of time in which oscillations from an oscillator circuit are counted may provide weighting for a signal. Weights applied to the signals may be dynamically adjusted, which may allow the weights to be tuned or changed based on changes to operating conditions of the memory dies.

Abstract: Systems and methods for determining elevation based on structural modeling and light detection and ranging (LIDAR) data are disclosure. LIDAR bare earth data corresponding to an area within a parcel boundary is obtained as preliminary elevation data. A basis of structure boundary is determined for a structure within the parcel boundary based on an absence of the LIDAR bare earth data within a region in the area.

A structure boundary for the structure is determined based on the basis of structure boundary in combination with supplemental elevation data generated using the three-dimensional models. Adjacent grade values are determined based on a portion of the preliminary elevation data and supplemental elevation data corresponding to an area between the structure boundary and a buffer boundary.
