As one of the key paths for promoting green and low-carbon development, distributed wind and photovoltaic power generation and energy storage systems (referred to as wind-solar-storage systems) are indispensable for the new power system by leveraging their cleanliness, renewability, and flexible dispatch capabilities. This review elucidates integration mechanism, key technologies, and application value in green development of distributed wind-solar-storage energy systems. It systematically reviews and analyses the current research progress and application practices in system architecture, optimization dispatch, intelligent control, and energy storage management both domestically and internationally. Then, it points out the main challenges currently faced include high system integration complexity, high energy storage costs, and difficulties in control coordination. It also proposes future development directions from multiple dimensions, such as adaptive dispatch mechanisms based on artificial intelligence, novel and efficient energy storage technologies, and coordinated optimization of source-grid-load-storage. This paper can provide theoretical references and methodological insights for the integration and optimization research of distributed renewable energy systems.
