This paper presents the results obtained in the design, implementation and testing of a bidirectional CSI (Current source inverter) converter, which is capable of delivering and taking power from the grid to charge a 72 V battery bank. This converter is sized within a photovoltaic solar system designed for homes in the city of Tunja, based on real data to estimate the average consumption of a typical home in the "Cooservicios" sector of the city, proposing two ways of working the system, one to obtain a constant average consumption and another in which the total consumption is zero. The converter is implemented with all its components, digital and power stages, using for the control a TMS 320F28377S microcontroller from C2000 family, of Texas Instruments. The implementation meets specifications of: bidirectional operation as an inverter and as a rectifier, output power of 469 W, efficiency around 80%, highlighting the considerably high value required for the input inductance of 0.3 H that causes losses in the system.
