ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM
First Claim
1. An energy storage system comprising:
- a battery configured to store an electric power generated by a power generator and to supply a battery power;
an inverter for transforming between direct current (DC) power and alternating current (AC) power; and
a converter between the inverter and both the power generator and the battery, the converter being configured to form a same electrical path to the inverter from the power generator and the battery.

Abstract
An energy storage system includes a converter coupled between an inverter and both a power generator and a battery, thereby reducing the number of devices for circuit implementation and the size of a printed circuit board (PCB). The energy storage system is coupled to an electric power system that generates a system power, and the energy storage system includes a battery for generating a battery power and a converter coupleable to a power generator for generating an electric power and the battery in parallel, wherein the converter is configured to boost or drop a voltage of at least one of the electric power, the battery power, or the system power.
