IV. CONCLUSIONS
In this paper, a single-phase bi-directional inverter with
dc-bus voltage regulation and power compensation has been
(vs : 200 V/div, iL: 10 A/div, 2 ms/div) analyzed and implemented. The inverter controls the power

according to the inductor current levels have been proposed to
balance power flow and enhance the dynamic performance.
Additionally, for power compensation and islanding
protection, the bi-directional inverter can shift its current
commands according to the specified power factor at ac grid
side. Simulated and experimental results obtained from a 5
kW single-phase bi-directional inverter have verified the
analysis and discussion.
