Abstract
A power conversion system includes a first converter having a DC side and an AC side and a second converter having a DC side and an AC side. The DC sides of the converters are connected in series with a battery connected in parallel across the DC side of the first converter. The AC sides of the converters are connected in parallel across an AC voltage grid. A DC generating power source is coupled across the DC sides of both converters. The first converter is bi-directional with the second converter being either an inverter providing DC to AC conversion or alternately a bi-directional inverter.
