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 .
Vaal University of Technology, Vanderbijlpark, Sou th Africa. Abstract - This study gives a critical review of flywheel energy storage systems and their feasibility in various applications. Flywheel energy storage systems have gained increased popularity as a method of environmentally friendly energy storage.
Normally, steel flywheels commonly used in energy storage systems are dependent on mechanical energy caused by inertia . The presence of friction and air resistance on the mechanical system causes the mechanical energy stored in the flywheel to be reduced and depleted.
While many papers compare different ESS technologies, only a few research, studies design and control flywheel-based hybrid energy storage systems. Recently, Zhang et al. present a hybrid energy storage system based on compressed air energy storage and FESS.
