Abstract

An energy generation system includes an inverter power control system and a plurality of energy storage devices coupled to the inverter power control system. The inverter power control system includes an input configured to receive DC power; a DC/AC inverter stage configured to receive the DC power input; an anti-islanding relay coupled to the output of the DC/AC inverter stage; and a transition relay coupled to the anti-islanding relay, where the transition relay configured to route an output of the inverter power control system between one or more onsite back-up loads and an AC grid. Each energy storage device is configured to communicate with the inverter power control system.
