        This proposal is for the maximum power that can be set for the PV inverters in

        Power values need to follow the Passive Sign Convention (PSC). That is, positive
        values indicate charge power and negative values indicate discharge power.
        Only discharge powers are allowed for PV inverters.

        If the same PV inverters are shared by multiple actors, the power manager will
        consider the priority of the actors, the bounds they set, and their preferred
        power, when calculating the target power for the PV inverters.

        The preferred power of lower priority actors will take precedence as long as
        they respect the bounds set by higher priority actors.  If lower priority actors
        request power values outside of the bounds set by higher priority actors, the
        target power will be the closest value to the preferred power that is within the
        bounds.

        When there are no other actors trying to use the same PV inverters, the actor's
        preferred power would be set as the target power, as long as it falls within the
        system power bounds for the PV inverters.

        [`power_status`][frequenz.sdk.timeseries.pv_pool.PVPool.power_status]
