In this presentation, challenges, and opportunities for renewable energy integration into the power grid are discussed. The main renewable energy resources that are considered include photovoltaics, wind farms, and batteries. Then, the main advantages of using grid- connected energy storage with PV farms are illustrated. This includes methods of using energy storage for a) smoothing intermittent PV outputs, b) regulating distribution system voltage, c) supporting energy time shift and, d) supporting frequency regulation. Then control approaches for managing renewable energy resources are illustrated. Finally, real- time, and distributed control of the modern power grid for grid stability and reliability in the presence is renewable energy resources are summarized.
