Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The present invention includes a system and method for generating, controlling and storing dispatchable renewable energy. The system may include one or more wind power generation facilities and one or more solar power generation facilities to generate power that can be stored by one or more storage facilities. The power can be supplied to a power grid at a level determined by actual or predicted weather conditions, based on variable power demands. The power generated by the renewable energy sources may be combined with power generated by conventional power generation facilities to provide power in a dispatchable manner.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
We claim: 1. A dispatchable energy generation system comprising: at least one renewable energy source with integrated energy storage; at least one point of interconnect for collecting power generated by said at least one renewable energy source; a power transfer device for supplying collected power to a grid and for supplying power to charge at least one energy storage device, wherein said at least one energy storage device can dispatch power to the grid upon request; at lea…
