A FESS consists of several key components: (1) A rotor/flywheel for storing the kinetic energy. (2) A bearing system to support the rotor/flywheel. (3) A power converter system for charge and discharge, including an electric machine and power electronics. (4) Other auxiliary components.
They are the most common energy storage used devices. These types of energy storage usually use kinetic energy to store energy. Here kinetic energy is of two types: gravitational and rotational. These storages work in a complex system that uses air, water, or heat with turbines, compressors, and other machinery.
Key use cases include services such as power quality management and load balancing as well as backup power for outage management. The different types of energy storage can be grouped into …
