Abstract: In the past two decades, clean energy such as hydro, wind, and solar power has achieved significant development under the “green recovery” global goal, and it may become the key method for countries to realize a low-carbon energy system. Here, the development of renewable energy power generation, the typical hydro-wind-photovoltaic complementary practical project, is summarized, and some key problems in complementary systems such as the description and prediction of the power generation law in large-scale stations, risk management, and coordinated operation are analyzed. In terms of these problems, this paper systematically summarizes the research methods and characteristics of a hydro-wind-solar hybrid system and expounds upon the technical realization process from the prediction and description of wind and solar power station cluster output, the risks brought about by large-scale renewable energy grid-connected operation, and the long-term and short-term coordination modeling and resolution thoughts on the hydro-wind-solar hybrid system in cluster mode. Finally, based on the aforementioned analysis, the existing research gaps are discussed from the standpoints of generation forecast, risk management, and cluster scheduling, and the future work outlook is presented accordingly. A hybrid system that combines hydro, wind, and solar energy is emerging as a way to make up for each other’s shortcomings and will be a fruitful area of study in the future.
