Most publicly available wind data are aggregated to a temporal resolution of 30 or 60 min. This is adequate for some purposes, such as large-scale wind integration studies. However, the consequent loss of high-frequency power fluctuations from the data can significantly impact analysis on local...

Variable power outputs are one of the largest challenges facing the widespread adoption of renewable energy systems. The inherent variability of solar resources makes it challenging to integrate large amounts of solar energy into the electric grid. However, the weather factors that influence...
