Abstract
A system for providing alternating current (AC) power to an aircraft component includes a ram air turbine (RAT) configured to generate AC power. The system also includes an energy storage device configured to output direct current (DC) power. The system also includes an inverter configured to convert the DC power to the AC power. The system also includes a controller coupled to the RAT and the inverter and configured to cause the inverter to provide the AC power to the aircraft component, and to control the RAT to provide the AC power to the aircraft component in response to determining that the RAT can provide the AC power.
