Power generation system

A power generation system, comprising:

• a grid-supply-connector for receiving a grid supply voltage;
• a power outlet;
• a battery that is configured to selectively provide power for the power outlet;
• and
• an uninterruptable power supply, UPS, that has:
• a grid-input terminal, a power-output-terminal and a battery-connection-terminal, wherein:
• the grid-input terminal is connected to the grid-supply-connector;
• the power-output-terminal is connected to the power outlet;
• and
• the battery-connection-terminal is connected to the battery;
• the UPS is configured to apply a control algorithm in order to provide power to the power-output-terminal based on signals received at the grid-input terminal and the battery-connection-terminal;
• a fuel cell that is configured to selectively provide power to the power outlet, independently of the UPS;
• an inverter for converting a DC voltage that is provided by the fuel cell into an inverter-AC-voltage for providing to the power outlet;
• and
• a controller that is configured to:
• receive a system-load-signal that represents the amount of power that is required by an external load that is connected to the power outlet;
• receive one or more fuel-cell-parameters that represent one or more operating parameters of the fuel cell;
• and
• provide a fuel-cell-power-control-signal based on the system-load-signal and the one or more fuel-cell-parameters, wherein the fuel-cell-power-control-signal is for setting a control-parameter of the fuel cell and/or is for setting a control parameter of the inverter.
