Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Methods and a voltage regulator are provided for distributing power sourcing in a hybrid power plant system. The voltage regulator is configured to monitor an output power of a generator and control an excitation signal provided to the generator based at least in part on the generator output power.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A voltage regulator configured to: monitor an output power supplied from a generator to a load; compare the generator, output power to an active power limit; regulate voltage supplied to the generator at or below a first predefined voltage limit when the monitored generator output power is less than or equal to the active power limit; and decrease voltage supplied to the generator below a second predefined voltage limit lower than the first predefined…
