This document achieves this goal by providing a comprehensive overview of the state-of-the-art for wind-storage hybrid systems, particularly in distributed wind applications, to enable distributed wind system stakeholders to realize the maximum benefits of their system. . Electricity storage can shift wind energy from periods of low demand to peak times, to smooth fluctuations in output, and to provide resilience services during periods of low resource adequacy. Wind's variable nature presents a significant challenge – guaranteeing uninterrupted and consistent electricity delivery. In response to this challenge, we present a pioneering methodology for the allocation of capacities in the integration of wind power. . of the wind energy generation systems is variable. Therefore,energy storage systems are used t ditional revenuecompared with wind-only generation.
