HYBRID ELECTRIC POWER SYSTEM POWER CURVE AND PRODUCTIVITY

Abstract:

A method of a site evaluation for a hybrid wind/solar power generation plant, the method including generating a hybrid wind/solar power curve, the power curve including a plurality of solar power level curves, each solar power level curve including a combined wind and solar output power for at least one wind condition. Evaluating performance of the hybrid wind/solar power generation plant by analyzing the family of curves. A system for implementing the method and a non-transitory computer-readable medium are also disclosed.
