Systems and methods for enhanced reactive power management in a hybrid environment

A system comprising:

• a computing device comprising at least one processor in communication with at least one memory device, wherein said computing device is configured to be in communication with a plurality of power generating assets, wherein said at least one processor is programmed to:
• receive current weather conditions at the plurality of power generating assets, wherein the plurality of power generating assets including a first asset type and a second asset type;
• determine a forecast for a period of time based at least in part on the current weather conditions;
• determine that a first asset of the first asset type of the plurality of power generating assets has an available uprate margin for production of a first amount of active power;
• determine that a second asset of the second asset type of the plurality of power generating assets has capacity to generate a second amount of reactive power;
• transmit a first instruction to the first asset to reduce production of reactive power by the second amount and increase production of active power by the first amount, wherein the first asset executes the first instruction;
• and
• transmit a second instruction to the second asset to increase production of reactive power by the second amount, wherein the second asset executes the second instruction.
