This paper discusses the application of the flywheel energy storage system (FESS) for a 2-kW photovoltaic (PV) powered microgrid system. The modeling methodology for FESS suitable for the microgrid is discussed in this paper using MATLAB-Simulink.
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.
During discharge, the motor operates as a generator, outputting electrical energy to the outside under the driving of the flywheel and completing the conversion of mechanical energy to electrical energy. Fig. 4 illustrates a schematic representation and architecture of two types of flywheel energy storage unit.
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.
Flywheel energy storage system (FESS) is an electromechanical system that stores energy in the form of kinetic energy. A mass coupled with electric machine rotates on two magnetic bearings to decrease friction at high speed. The flywheel and electric machine are placed in a vacuum to reduce wind friction.
In recent years, flywheels are utilized as energy storage systems for their potential to smooth out transients in the grids. This paper discusses the application of the flywheel energy storage system (FESS) for a 2-kW photovoltaic (PV) powered microgrid system.
