Abstract
A system for providing power to a power grid includes a generator configured to output a first voltage associated with a first set of power characteristics. The system includes a power conversion system including a rectifier configured to convert first voltage to a direct current (DC) voltage. The power conversion system includes an inverter comprising one or more switches configured to convert the DC voltage to a second voltage. The system includes a processor configured to receive a second set of power characteristics associated with a power grid. The processor is configured to determine one or more signals configured to cause the switches in the inverter to convert the DC voltage into the second voltage, wherein the second voltage comprises the second set of power characteristics. The processor is configured to send the signals to the switches.
