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.
We will explore its advantages, applications across various industries, and a comparative analysis with other storage methods. Flywheel technology is a sophisticated energy storage system that uses a spinning wheel to store mechanical energy as rotational energy. This system ensures high energy output and efficient recovery.
FESS has been integrated with various renewable energy power generation designs. Gabriel Cimuca et al. proposed the use of flywheel energy storage systems to improve the power quality of wind power generation. The control effects of direct torque control (DTC) and flux-oriented control (FOC) were compared.
Fly wheels store energy in mechanical rotational energy to be then converted into the required power form when required. Energy storage is a vital component of any power system, as the stored energy can be used to offset inconsistencies in the power delivery system.
