Abstract

A microgrid power system includes a power module configured to generate direct current (DC) power, an inverter module having a DC side and an AC side, and configured to invert DC power received from the power module on the DC side and output alternating current (AC) power on the AC side, a DC bus electrically connecting an output of the power module to an input on the DC side of the inverter module, an AC load bus configured to electrically connect an output on the AC of the inverter module to an AC load, an energy storage device electrically connected to the DC bus, and a kinetic storage device (KSD) device electrically connected to the AC load bus on the AC side of the inverter module.
