An Overview of Wind-Solar System Output Power

Abstract

Renewable energy is playing a compromising role in the new generation of sustainable energy and promising to increase more and more. Wind and solar energies are among the top renewal resources today. Wind speed and solar radiation fluctuate so the generated power also fluctuates. It is better to forecast the wind and solar generated power for more efficient use. In this paper, we survey established work on wind and solar output power forecasting, as well as some control techniques used to improve the system performance. Also, we highlight a hybrid system of wind and PV.
