    Abstract: Example three-level inverters, control methods, and systems are provided. One example three-level inverter includes a first bus capacitor, a second bus capacitor, a power conversion circuit, and a controller. The first bus capacitor is connected in the middle of the current bus and the power conversion circuit. The power conversion circuit is configured to convert a direct current into a three-phase alternating current for output. The controller is configured to determine a balance reference by using a difference between absolute values of voltages of the positive and negative direct current buses and an even harmonic current in a grid-connected current, where the balance reference is used to enable the three-level inverter to generate a current signal for balancing the voltages of the positive and negative direct current buses.

    Abstract: An energy storage system includes at least two power conversion systems PCSs, output terminals of the at least two PCSs are connected in parallel to connect to an alternating current power grid, and input terminals of the at least two PCSs are connected to an energy storage power supply. The first PCS is any one of the at least two PCSs. The voltage detection circuit detects a power grid voltage at a parallel connection point of the output terminals of the at least two PCSs. When determining, based on the power grid voltage at the parallel connection point, that islanding occurs in the alternating current power grid, the controller adjusts an angle of an output voltage of the first PCS to a reference angle, so that angles of output voltages of the at least two PCSs are the same.

    Abstract: The embodiments include a power converter including a DC/AC conversion unit. A direct current bus is connected to the DC/AC conversion unit and a direct current source. The DC/AC conversion unit is further connected to a power grid. When a direct current bus voltage is less than or equal to a first voltage threshold, the power converter may switch to a current source mode to output first output power to the power grid, where the first output power is equal to an output power limit of the direct current source. Then, if a fluctuation amplitude of the direct current bus voltage is less than or equal to a first fluctuation threshold, the power converter may resume outputting second output power to the power grid in a voltage source mode, so that the second output power is less than or equal to the output power limit of the direct current source.

    Abstract: Examples of power conversion devices and control methods are described. In one example, a power conversion device includes direct current buses, an inverter circuit, and a controller. After the power conversion device switches from a high voltage ride through state to a low voltage ride through state, the controller controls a change rate of an output active current of the inverter circuit to be a first change rate in a first time interval and a second change rate in a second time interval respectively in a low voltage ride through reactive current response process. The second change rate is greater than the first change rate. A sum of first interval duration of the first time interval and second interval duration of the second time interval is less than or equal to a low voltage ride through reactive current response duration threshold.
