Patent number: 11990790Abstract: A microgrid includes a power system configured to output system power and an automatic transfer switch (ATS). The ATS includes a normal terminal that is electrically connected to a grid power line configured to receive grid power from a power utility, an emergency terminal that is electrically connected to a system power line configured to receive system power from the power system, and a load terminal that is electrically connected to a critical load line configured to provide power to a critical load. The microgrid also includes a bypass line electrically connected to the system power line and the critical load line, so as to bypass the ATS, and a circuit breaker configured to control power flow through the bypass line.Type: GrantFiled: March 4, 2022Date of Patent: May 21, 2024Assignee: BLOOM ENERGY CORPORATIONInventors: Prasad Pmsvvsv, Mehdi Ebad, Ranganathan Gurunathan, Vishal Anand Gopalakrishnan, Jayanth Moodliar, Saravana Narayanasamy, Rakesh Kumar Roy, Deepak Balakrishnan

Patent number: 11791730Abstract: Various embodiments may provide non-isolated single-input dual-output (SIDO) bi-directional buck-boost direct current (DC) to DC (DC-DC) converters. Various embodiments may provide a method for controlling a buck duty cycle of the non-isolated SIDO bi-directional buck-boost DC-DC converter such that a first voltage measured across a first portion of the non-isolated SIDO bi-directional buck-boost DC-DC converter is maintained at less than a voltage of a first load and a second voltage measured across a second portion of the non-isolated SIDO bi-directional buck-boost DC-DC converter is maintained at less than a voltage of a second load.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2022Date of Patent: October 17, 2023Assignee: BLOOM ENERGY CORPORATIONInventors: Ranganathan Gurunathan, Rakesh Roy, Bala Subrahmanyam Kuchibhatla, Srinivas Rao Potta, Deepak Balakrishnan
