An active filter (100) suppresses current harmonics generated in a dc bus (300) by generating a compensating current that is approximately equal-but-opposite in polarity to the current harmonics. In one implementation, the active filter (100) includes: an energy storage capacitor (103); a choke (104); a switch circuit (120); and a controller (150). The controller (150) receives a current harmonics measurement for the dc bus (300) and generates switch gating signals (156a, 156b) as a function of the current harmonics measurement. The switch circuit (120) receives the switch gating signals (156a, 156b) from the controller (150) and is operatively connected to the energy storage capacitor (103) and the choke (104) to selectively discharge the energy storage capacitor (103) to inject current into the dc bus (300) and to selectively draw current from the dc bus (300) via the choke (104).
