Abstract: This study presents a simple methodology for analysing and optimising combined wind generation and storage schemes, using both technical and economic performance criteria. . Solar installations achieve 5. 6 gigawatts capacity growth in early 2023, while wind turbines generate enough electricity to power 9% of American homes. These clean energy sources are reshaping how the United States produces power. But which is better? We will compare the two energy generation. . The study provides a study on energy storage technologies for photovoltaic and wind systems in response to the growing demand for low-carbon transportation. Energy storage systems (ESSs) have become an emerging area of renewed interest as a critical factor in renewable energy systems. The study provides a detailed analysis of the performance of two storage options for such a scheme: pumped storage. . Compressed air energy storage (CAES) effectively reduces wind and solar power curtailment due to randomness. However, inaccurate daily data and improper storage capacity configuration impact CAES development.
