| 1. An energy storage system comprising:
an energy storage device;
a bidirectional inverter configured to control a flow of power into or out of the energy storage device; and
a controller configured to control the bidirectional inverter based on one or more signals received from a generator set coupled
in parallel to the bidirectional inverter via an alternating current (AC) bus, wherein the controller is configured to, based
on the one or more signals, control the bidirectional inverter to store power generated by the generator set in the energy
storage device and transmit power from the energy storage device to a load driven by the generator set to maintain the generator
set within a range of one or more operating conditions.
