A Review of Flywheel Energy Storage System
The operation of the electricity network has grown more complex due to the increased adoption of renewable energy resources, such as wind
Since flywheel energy storage is used for power smoothing in wind power systems, the charging and discharging of flywheel energy storage and the fluctuating state of wind power are shown in the two-dimensional plane.
Throughout the process of reviewing the existing FESS applications and integration in the power system, the current research status shows that flywheel energy storage systems have the potential to provide fast and reliable frequency regulation services, which are crucial for maintaining grid stability and ensuring power quality.
The flywheel energy storage system can improve the quality of the grid by smoothing the high-frequency wind power output of wind power. The use of the MPC control system can realize the smoothing of wind power fluctuations on a short time scale. MPC combined with flywheel energy storage system can improve the power quality of wind power output.
The high-frequency component of the wind power output power data accounts for less than 10 % of the total energy. Therefore, this study selects a 100 MJ/0.3 MW flywheel energy storage device for a 30 MW wind farm, and the rated speed of the flywheel is 4000 r/min. 2.2. Energy storage systems
The development of flywheel energy storage has garnered the attention of several researchers for studying the control method of FESS; As shown in literature, an online energy management algorithm is proposed on the basis of GAMS, but there is no research on frequency division of wind power.
