invertergestützte

Invertergestützte is a German compound adjective used to describe systems or components that are operated with or rely on an inverter. An inverter is a power-electronic device that converts direct current into alternating current, enabling interfaces between DC sources such as batteries or photovoltaic modules and AC networks or loads. The term is common in electrical engineering, energy technology and drive technology, and is typically found in phrases like invertergestützte Antriebe, invertergestützte Speichersysteme or invertergestütztes Netzmanagement.

The concept encompasses a wide range of applications. Invertergestützte Antriebe refer to drive systems where motor control is achieved via inverters, allowing variable speed and torque. Invertergestützte Speichersysteme integrate energy storage with an inverter to feed AC power to the grid or to a local load, often with bidirectional power flow. In grid applications, invertergestützte Lösungen may provide services such as voltage and frequency regulation, reactive power support, and islanding protection, particularly in microgrids and renewable-heavy networks.

Key characteristics include the interface between DC sources and AC loads, controllable voltage and frequency generation, and typically bidirectional power flow in storage applications. The term underscores the central role of power electronics in enabling flexible energy conversion and grid-support functions, while also implying the need for appropriate control strategies to meet efficiency, reliability, and grid-code requirements. The phrase is descriptive rather than a formal technical standard, and its exact meaning varies with context.
