These forms range from high-voltage direct current (HVDC) converter stations to the flexible ac transmission system (FACTS) devices that are used to control and regulate ac power grids, variable-speed drives for motors, interfaces with storage devices of several types, interfacing of distributed energy resources with the grid, the electric drive in transportation systems, fault current–limiting devices, the solid-state distribution transformer, and transfer switches.
[pdf] This has given rise to new systems—mobile, containerized PV units with battery storage, optionally supplemented by diesel as a backup. They can be deployed within hours or days, transported by truck or rail, and provide autonomous supply for extended periods.
