Designing equipment for isolated grids is already complicated because of the wide range of formats encompassed within the broad term "microgrid." Systems can range from less than 5 kilowatts to several megawatts, and contain a range of generation sources, potentially along with storage.
once PV penetration hits 40 percent, some form of energy storage becomes essential and more sophisticated control is needed. That isn’t easy, because the load keeps changing at the same time as the energy available from solar. In the absence of control systems, bidirectional inverters have to balance power coming in from PV with that going to users and batteries. Current inverters aren’t up to it
I believe Ideal's CTO Bill Alexander addressed this in his white paper entitled "Battery-Utility Interface using Soft Switched AC Link Buck Boost Converter", here: http://www.idealpower.com/PDFs/IPC_IEMDC_full_paper6.pdf), in which he specifically states that Ideal's technology can
provide the required grid stabilization ... which can switch in a few milliseconds from charging batteries to supplying power to the electric grid
