An Overview of the R&D of Flywheel Energy Storage
A steel alloy flywheel with an energy storage capacity of 125 kWh and a composite flywheel with an energy storage capacity of 10 kWh have been successfully developed.
Moreover, flywheel energy storage system array (FESA) is a potential and promising alternative to other forms of ESS in power system applications for improving power system efficiency, stability and security . However, control systems of PV-FESS, WT-FESS and FESA are crucial to guarantee the FESS performance.
The core technology is the rotor material, support bearing, and electromechanical control system. This chapter mainly introduces the main structure of the flywheel energy storage system, the electromechanical control system, and the charging and discharging control process .
Flywheel energy storage systems (FESS) are considered environmentally friendly short-term energy storage solutions due to their capacity for rapid and efficient energy storage and release, high power density, and long-term lifespan. These attributes make FESS suitable for integration into power systems in a wide range of applications.
Zhang employed a high-speed flywheel energy storage system (FESS) charge–discharge control method based on the DC traction network voltage to achieve effective operation of the FESS in the subway traction power supply system .
