    摘要: A photovoltaic power plant system for power generation, comprising one or more photovoltaic clusters and one or more modular multilevel converters. Each photovoltaic cluster includes a number of photovoltaic strings connected to one or more MPPT DC/DC, converters connected to a common LVDC, bus. Each photovoltaic cluster includes a DC/DC converter including an input connected to the LVDC bus, and an output connected to a MVDC collection grid. Each of the one or more modular multilevel converters includes an input connected to the one or more photovoltaic clusters via the MVDC collection grid and an output connected to a transmission grid.

    摘要: A control unit distributes a motor voltage vector corresponding to an output request for a motor to a first and a second inverter voltage vectors associated with outputs from a first inverter and a second inverter, and determines whether a switching condition for three-phase-on mode is satisfied. Determining that the switching condition is satisfied, the control unit switches to three-phase-on mode in which every high-side switching element or every low-side switching element of one inverter is turned on and one end of a coil in each phase of the motor is brought into common connection, and the control unit drives the motor with an output from the other inverter. Herein, the switching condition for three-phase-on mode includes failure of one inverter and an inverter voltage vector of an output from one inverter being approximate to 0 when neither of the inverters fails.

    摘要: Apparatuses and systems enable power transfer from one or more energy sources to one or more loads. The input power from the energy sources may be unregulated, and the output power to the loads is managed. The power transfer is based on a dynamic implementation of Jacobi's Law (also known as the Maximum Power Theorem). In some embodiments, the energy sources are selectively coupled and decoupled from the power transfer circuitry. In some embodiments, the loads are selectively coupled and decoupled from the power transfer circuitry. Power transfer to the loads is dynamically controlled.

    摘要: A marine power system including multiple of fuel cells, multiple of D C/AC converters and at least one propulsion motor. In the marine power system, each fuel cell of the multiple of fuel cells is connectable to an input of a DC/AC converter of the multiple of DC/AC converters and at least one group of multiple of DC/AC converters is connectable to the at least one propulsion motor to provide variable frequency and amplitude voltage to the at least one propulsion motor. Further, at least one of the multiple of DC/AC converters is connectable to a fixed frequency AC bus to provide voltage with a fixed frequency and amplitude to the fixed frequency AC bus.
