Abstract
The disclosure describes a voltage source inverter having an internal control loop with a setpoint input for a setpoint signal for an active power component of the inverter, and an actual value input for a current actual value of the active power component of the inverter. The inner control loop is a controller with a proportional component and an integral component and is configured to determine a frequency shift as a controller output variable from the difference between the setpoint signal and the current actual value. The inverter is configured to provide an AC voltage that deviates from a predefined fundamental frequency by the determined frequency shift. An outer control loop of the inverter is configured to supply a setpoint signal to the setpoint input as a function of the determined frequency shift in islanded operation. A power generation system can comprise two such inverters.
