Abstract
A system for regulating energy provided to an electricity grid from an energy source, the system includes a converter configured to receive the energy from the source. The converter is configured to dynamically predict real-time maximum reactive power capability as a function of at least one from the group including (i) a direct current link maximum voltage, (ii) an instantaneous grid network voltage, and (iii) a line current. The predicted maximum reactive power capability is configured for optimizing regulation of the energy.
