1. A method for implementing power delivery of an integrated renewable energy source and energy storage system (RES−ESS) facility that includes a renewable energy source (RES) and an energy storage system (ESS), the method comprising:
obtaining a first control rule configured to be used, but that was not used, to control power distribution in the RES−ESS facility for a time slot, wherein the power distribution includes directing power from a renewable energy source (RES) to an electric grid and to an energy storage system (ESS) and power from the ESS to the electric grid;
receiving, from an operator, a second control rule configured to be used to control the power distribution in the RES−ESS facility, wherein the second control rule was used to control the power distribution in the RES−ESS facility for the time slot instead of the first control rule;
determining a difference in performance of the RES−ESS facility operating under the second control rule for the time slot compared with an expected performance of the RES−ESS facility if the RES−ESS facility were to operate under the first control rule for the time slot; and
transmitting a record comprising an identification of the difference in performance to the operator.
