DC Power Server For A DC Microgrid

摘要

A direct current power server configured to serve a direct current microgrid of a building. The direct current power server includes a direct current bus having branch circuits that extend from the direct current power server to provide direct current power to direct current loads of the building. The direct current power server directly integrates a local energy source and local energy storage into the direct current microgrid without attachment to the alternating current electrical grid.

主权项

1. A direct current power server for a building comprising:
an enclosure; a direct current bus disposed within the enclosure, the direct current bus having at least one branch circuit that extends from the enclosure and connects with direct current loads of the building to provide direct current power to the direct current loads; an electrical grid connection configured to connect to an electrical grid and to receive alternating current power from the electrical grid; a rectifier circuit disposed within the enclosure and connected between the electrical grid connection and the direct current bus, the rectifier circuit being configured to provide direct current power to the direct current bus by converting the alternating current power from the electrical grid connection to direct current power; an energy source connection configured to connect to an energy source and to receive direct current power from the energy source, the energy source connection being connected to the direct current bus to provide the direct current power from the energy source to the direct current bus; and a system controller configured to control power flow from the electrical grid and the energy source to the direct current bus.
