2. Grid-tie inverter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grid-tie_inverter

   However, supplying reactive power to the grid might be necessary to keep the voltage in the local grid inside allowable limits. Grid-tie inverters are designed to disconnect quickly from the grid if the utility grid goes down. In the United States, there is an NEC requirement [2] that in the event of a blackout, the grid tie inverter shut down ...

3. Grid-tied electrical system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grid-tied_electrical_system

   A grid-tied electrical system, also called tied to grid or grid tie system, is a semi-autonomous electrical generation or grid energy storage system which links to the mains to feed excess capacity back to the local mains electrical grid. When insufficient electricity is available, electricity drawn from the mains grid can make up the shortfall ...

4. Short circuit ratio (electrical grid) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short_circuit_ratio...

   [citation needed] In a traditional grid dominated by synchronous generators, a strong grid with SCR greater than 3.0 will have the desired voltage stability and active power reserves. [4] A weak grid (with SCR values between 2.0 and 3.0 [6]) can exhibit voltage instability and control problems. [5] A grid with SCR below 2.0 is very weak. [6]

5. Inverter-based resource - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverter-based_resource

   An inverter-based resource (IBR) is a source of electricity that is asynchronously connected to the electrical grid via an electronic power converter ("inverter"). The devices in this category, also known as converter interfaced generation (CIG), include the variable renewable energy generators (wind, solar) and battery storage power stations. [1]

6. Enphase Energy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enphase_Energy

   Enphase was established in 2006 and is the first company to successfully commercialize the solar micro-inverter, which converts the direct current (DC) power generated by a solar panel into grid-compatible alternating current (AC) for use or export. The company has shipped more than 48 million microinverters to 2.5 million solar systems in more ...

7. Microgrid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microgrid

   This cluster of associated consumer and producer nodes acts as a single controllable entity and is able to operate in either grid-connected or island mode. [ 3 ] Microgrid Knowledge [ 13 ] defines a microgrid as a "self-sufficient energy system that serves a discrete geographic footprint, such as a college campus, hospital complex, business ...
