A system for controlling one or more loads. The system comprises a plurality of power converters, wherein each power converter is configured to be arranged in a parallel configuration with one or more additional power converters so as to control the one or more loads, and a central controller configured to output a common reference based on local current or voltage values received from each power converter; and transmit the common reference to each of the power converters. Each power converter comprises an inverter configured to control the one or more loads based on voltage switching signals, a module configured to provide the voltage switching signals to the inverter according to a modulation scheme.
