A potential solution to these challenges is bidirectional functionality for AC/DC, DC/AC and DC/DC power-conversion stages. To further increase system integration, system BOM and form-factor reductions, the landscape of grid systems that involve energy storage is moving toward bidirectional power conversion blocks like those shown in Figure 2.
Bidirectional power conversion blocks and hybrid inverter solutions allow for reduced components, fewer modules and subsystems, and ultimately a lower system BOM cost. C2000TM devices for real-time control are purpose-built to meet designers’ needs and help continue the growth of the energy storage market.
A hybrid inverter complements a solar inverter system with energy storage so that the same inverter can invert DC power from either the solar photovoltaic (PV) panels or the charged battery. In fact, this is one way solar PV manufacturers are using energy storage to grow their business and stay ahead of the market.
Energy storage solutions are inevitable, and hybrid inverters are the key to a risk-free and future-proof solution for solar system designers. Bidirectional energy storage solutions, including hybrid inverters, require high power efficiency, performance and device compactness.
The inverter stage is bidirectional, enabling power conversion from DC stage to AC stage and vice versa. The topology is constituted by an H-Bridge with each group of diagonal switches operating at high frequency during one half-wave of output voltage.
In a micro-grid system composed of multiple energy sources, energy storage converters are the core equipment, because renewable energy sources such as photovoltaics and wind power are volatile, and loads are also volatile, and fuel-fired generators can only generate electricity and cannot absorb electricity.
