A method of creating an interconnected combination of a stored energy electric generation system to a variable electric power generation system, said combination, and a method of operating same. A stored energy electric generation system is added to a variable output electric power generation system. An input/output of the stored energy electric power generation system is connected to a power output of the variable electric power generation system and an indicator of power flow level through the power input/output of the stored energy electric power generation system is provided to a controller of the variable electric power generation system. The controller is configured to adjust the output power of the variable electric power generation system based on the indicator of the present stored energy system electric power flow level and a present site output electric power level.
