  • Publication number: 20260074517
    Abstract: A system includes a breaker set, an inverter operatively connected to the breaker set, and at least one direct current (DC) voltage converter operatively connected to the inverter. A microgrid interconnection device (MID) can be operatively connected to the breaker set. A controller provides smart functionality for energy production, distribution, and control among residential sources and loads connected to the system. The controller, the breaker set, the MID, the inverter, and the at least one DC voltage converter can be housed within an enclosure.

  • Publication number: 20260074488
    Abstract: A system includes an enclosure defining an interior space enclosed by a wall of the enclosure. Power electronics are disposed within the interior space. The power electronics can include at least one inverter configured to invert direct current (DC) power to alternating power, at least one voltage converter for boosting voltage from a DC source up to electrical panel voltage, at least one rectifier configured to rectify alternating current (AC) power to DC power, and at least one voltage converter for reducing voltage from electrical panel voltage to a battery charging level. Wall mounting features can extend from the enclosure, configured for mounting the enclosure to a wall surface. It is also contemplated that hinge components can extend from the wall of the enclosure so the enclosure can be hingedly mounted to an electrical panel as a door of the electrical panel.

  • Publication number: 20250354190
    Abstract: Monk fruit extracts containing mogrol glycosides such as mogroside V may be treated with enzymes under specific reaction conditions to shift distribution of the Siamenoside I reaction product. Modified enzymes are also employed to shift Siamenoside I distribution to increase yield of Siamenoside I and reduce reaction contaminants. Methods of purifying bioconversion reaction product are also described. Siamenoside I obtained using these methods is a useful sweetener and flavor enhancer for food and beverage compositions and the like.
