摘要： An electrical power distribution network includes: a plurality of electrical power control apparatuses, each of which include one or more signal conversion components receiving electrical power in the form of a first signal and generating a corresponding second signal, a controller that controls operation of the signal conversion components, electrical power generation components acting as sources of electrical power to at least some of the electrical power control apparatuses, and electrical power consumption components acting as sinks of electrical power from at least some of the electrical power control apparatuses. The electrical power control apparatuses operate autonomously but are interconnected so that the electrical power control apparatuses collectively maintain the voltages and frequencies of electrical power signals flowing through the electrical power distribution network at target values to compensate for variations in the sinks and/or sources of electrical power.

摘要： An electric power converter for a photovoltaic energy source, including: an inverter to receive a dynamically changing DC signal generated by the photovoltaic energy source and to generate a corresponding dynamically changing AC signal having a frequency substantially equal to a mains supply frequency; and an electromagnetic apparatus, including: a magnetic core and a plurality of windings around the magnetic core. The windings include: one or more input windings to receive the dynamically changing AC signal as an AC input; one or more output windings to provide an AC output signal; and control windings configured to control electromagnetic coupling between the input and output windings; and a control component configured to dynamically control electrical currents through the control windings so that the electrical characteristics of the AC output signal are relatively constant despite the dynamically changing AC signal and include a fundamental frequency equal to the mains supply frequency.
