Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An energy storage system and a method of controlling the energy storage system are disclosed. The energy storage system includes an integrated controller configured to determine a functional state of a power converting unit, a bidirectional converter, and a bidirectional inverter based on conditions of the power generation system, the battery, and the load.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method of controlling an energy storage system connected to a power generation system, a battery, a grid, and a load, the method comprising: determining whether the grid is connected to the load; and determining whether power is generated by the power generation system, wherein the energy storage system operates in one of a plurality of modes, based on at least one of the amount of power generated by the power generation system, the charge state of the…
