Can a multi-energy complementary power generation system integrate wind and solar energy?

Simulation results validated using real-world data from the southwest region of China. Future research will focus on stochastic modeling and incorporating energy storage systems. This paper proposes constructing a multi-energy complementary power generation system integrating hydropower, wind, and solar energy.

What are the complementary characteristics of wind and solar energy?

The complementary characteristics of wind and solar energy can be fully utilized, which better aligns with fluctuations in user loads, promoting the integration of wind and solar resources and ensuring the safe and stable operation of the system. 1. Introduction

How to integrate wind and solar power?

When considering the integration of wind and solar power, increasing the installed capacity of renewable energy while maintaining a certain wind-solar ratio can effectively match the power generation with the user load within a specific range. In engineering design, it is essential to address the issue of ensuring supply from 16:00 to 22:00.

Is a multi-energy complementary wind-solar-hydropower system optimal?

This study constructed a multi-energy complementary wind-solar-hydropower system model to optimize the capacity configuration of wind, solar, and hydropower, and analyzed the system's performance under different wind-solar ratios. The results show that when the wind-solar ratio is 1.25:1, the overall system performance is optimal.

Does integrated hydro-wind-solar power generation reduce the waste of wind and solar energy?

The results indicate that in the integrated hydro-wind-solar power generation system, hydroelectric power reduces its output when wind and solar power generation is high, thereby minimizing the waste of wind and solar energy.

Does a higher wind and solar curtailment rate increase integrated solar capacity?

It is evident that regardless of the wind-solar ratio, a higher loss of load rate and wind and solar curtailment rate lead to a more considerable integrated wind and solar capacity. Through analysis, it can be inferred that increasing the wind and solar curtailment rate reduces the output fluctuation of new energy integrated into the system.
