Modern high-speed flywheel energy storage systems have a wide range of applications in renewable energy storage, uninterrupted power supplies, transportation, electric vehicle charging, energy grid regulation, and peak shaving.
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.
D. Power Electronics The flywheel energy unit produces variable frequency AC current. To reliably operate the system, power electronics devices must be installed in order to keep the frequency constant so that it can be connected to the grid. Power converters for energy storage systems are based on SCR, GTO or IGBT switches.
While many papers compare different ESS technologies, only a few research [152,153] 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.
