1. An energy generation system comprising:
- a static inverter to provide an alternating current power to a feeding point; and
a pulse width modulation inverter connected in parallel with the static inverter to correct a power factor error in the alternating current power provided by the static inverter.

Abstract
A system to collect energy from generation systems such as, for example, wind farms or solar farms with distributed energy-generation equipment. The energy is collected and transmitted to a feed-in site. At the feed-in site, static inverters alone or in combination with pulse width modulation inverters may be used to feed the energy to a power grid. In some other cases, back-to-back static inverters create a high-voltage direct current to feed a transmission line.
