The flywheel energy storage system (FESS) can mitigate the power imbalance and suppress frequency fluctuations. In this paper, an adaptive frequency control scheme for FESS based on model predictive control (MPC) is proposed to suppress the frequency fluctuation in microgrids.
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.
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.
They found that FESSs are more competitive when it comes to short terms frequency regulations in the future. In paper, , by examining different energy storage, flywheel is economically more attractive for frequency regulation. However, these studies used aggregated capital cost without considering equipment design and sizing.
A flywheel energy storage unit is a mechanical system designed to store and release energy efficiently. It consists of a high-momentum flywheel, precision bearings, a vacuum or low-pressure enclosure to minimize energy losses due to friction and air resistance, a motor/generator for energy conversion, and a sophisticated control system.
