Flywheel energy storage system use is increasing, which has encouraged research in design improvement, performance optimization, and cost analysis. However, the system's environmental impacts for utility applications have not been widely studied.
Fig. 1 has been produced to illustrate the flywheel energy storage system, including its sub-components and the related technologies. A FESS consists of several key components: (1) A rotor/flywheel for storing the kinetic energy. (2) A bearing system to support the ro-tor/flywheel.
Flywheel systems can potentially reshape how energy storage integrates with both traditional and renewable energy sources, making them a focal point in the evolving energy landscape. The awareness of sustainability and energy efficiency is on the rise. In the next few years, a boom in FESS adoption appears inevitable.
The use of new materials and compact designs will increase the specific energy and energy density to make flywheels more competitive to batteries. Other opportunities are new applications in energy harvest, hybrid energy systems, and flywheel’s secondary functionality apart from energy storage.
Demand response methods have been employed to smooth the power needs by shifting loads to when there is a surplus of production. In this paper, power smoothing of fluctuating loads using a flywheel storage system is investigated for a small grid connected microgrid.
Steel rotor and composite rotor flywheel energy storage systems were assessed for a capacity of 20 MW for short-duration utility applications. A consistent system boundary was considered for both systems with the life cycle stages of material production, operation, transportation, and end-of-life.
