Methods and systems for controlling a power conversion system

A power conversion system (20) is described. The power conversion system includes a first power converter (42) coupled to an electrical grid (26) at a first point of interconnection (POI) (30), a first processing device (62) coupled to the first power converter and configured to control operation of the first power converter, and a first power measurement device (94) coupled to the first processing device and configured to collect data associated with power output of the first power converter. The power conversion system also includes a first global positioning system (GPS) receiver (64) coupled to the first processing device and configured to receive location information corresponding to a location of the first power converter and temporal information corresponding to a time at the location.
