    Abstract: Techniques are provided for a unified power production system that produces and supplies a stable power from renewable resources coupled with a firming resource. The power production system includes a management system that dispatches a firming resource operatively coupled to the power production system whose power output is combined with the power output from the renewable resources to produce a stable output to a grid operator. The management system monitors and maximizes the renewable resource production and minimizes the operation of the fossil-fuel-consuming firming resource.
