Wind-solar integration with energy storage is an available strategy for facilitating the grid synthesis of large-scale renewable energy sources generation. If not properly managed, system dynamics can lead to stability problems and potential costly blackouts. Currently, the huge expenses of energy storage is a significant constraint on the economic viability of wind-solar integration.
