Abstract
The invention relates to an electrical energy converter including an inverter () for obtaining alternative electrical energy from a DC electrical energy source. The inverter includes a switch () having first and second conduction terminals for receiving an AC voltage, the electrical energy converter being suitable for supplying an output electrical energy to a load (). Said converter includes a capacitive circuit () with variable and controllable capacitance, connected between the inverter () and the load (), the control of a modification of said capacitance making it possible to obtain a modification of an electrical output parameter of the converter. The associated system for converting electrical energy includes such an electrical energy converter and a control module () configured for receiving as input a setpoint value of said output electrical parameter (V) of the converter and for controlling the variable capacitance of said capacitive circuit () as a function of said setpoint value.
