Abstract
A power generating unit, control unit and modular power generating system. A power generating unit includes an engine-generator set including an engine that produces mechanical power and a generator mechanically coupled to the engine. The generator converts the mechanical power to electrical power provided to a DC link. The control unit includes at least one controller configured to control fuel flow to the engine based on a voltage of the DC link.
