A Power Conversion System (PCS) is the central power electronics component designed for efficient energy form conversion and control. Its primary functions include:

Bidirectional Energy Conversion: Seamless DC-AC and AC-DC transformation (e.g., battery storage-grid interaction)
Dynamic Regulation: Real-time control of voltage, frequency, power factor (compliant with IEEE 1547)
System Integration: Intelligent interface among renewables, storage, and grid
