The inclusion of solar and wind power into the combined renewable energy that is integrated into the grid will continue to revolutionize the energy sector, as long as the connection criteria are met. Combining solar and wind power can be a good alternative to fossil fuels. The combination of these two creates a hybrid system, that complements each other’s strengths, and reduces the overall variability of the power supply. The big challenge that this combination faces is the diminished power quality from the fluctuation of voltage and the variation of frequency [5]. The implementation of demand-side management strategies such as peak shaving and load shifting can help align demand with variable voltage and fluctuating frequency supply. Government policies, and regulatory frameworks that promote renewable energy development, provide financial incentives, and streamline permitting processes can accelerate the adoption of these solutions. Combining solar with wind energy presents challenges that demand initiative solutions and a holistic approach to energy system planning and Demand- Side Management. Embracing energy storage technologies can harness the power of nature to create a more sustainable future. Such technologies included in this paper are supported by policy frameworks, and demand-side management.
