    Abstract: Modern solar voltaic power conversion for grid compatible usage requires employing complicated active electronic systems designed to control connection, conversion, regulation and safety functions that are absolutely necessary for co-generation applications. This invention inherently and passively performs all of those functions, delivering fully regulated, compatible and fail safe alternating current suitable for supplementing the electrical grid at virtually any point of use and does not use any active electronic devices. This invention dramatically simplifies and improves the art of converting solar voltaic power to common grid power by utilizing an ingenious “Motor-Generator” combination of a common direct current motor and a common induction motor; Two very old devices that have been in common use for over one hundred years.
