An inverter is a power electronic device that converts direct current (DC) into alternating current (AC). In battery energy storage systems (BESS) and photovoltaic systems, inverters are a key component for grid connection, power supply to loads, and energy scheduling.
In the BESS, the battery energy storage system consists of the DC side (batteries, battery management system) and the AC side (grid/loads), with the inverter acting as a bridge.
