Mechanical energy storage systems such as PHS, CAES and GES can be used to compensate for unexpected contingencies for example the failure of a generating unit. In this application premium is placed on mechanical energy storage being able to charge or discharge within a very short interval of time (in milliseconds of time).
Storing mechanical energy is employed for large-scale energy storage purposes, such as PHES and CAES, while electrochemical energy storage is utilized for applications that range from small-scale consumer electronics to large-scale grid energy storage.
Hence, mechanical energy storage systems can be deployed as a solution to this problem by ensuring that electrical energy is stored during times of high generation and supplied in time of high demand. This work presents a thorough study of mechanical energy storage systems.
Mechanical energy storage system especially FES can be deployed for the provision of short-duration power quality by supplying active power for very short duration in the range of 1–10 seconds. 7. Managing the high cost of mechanical energy storage systems
In mechanical energy storage system (MESS), there is a conversion of energy from mechanical to electrical form . In times of low energy demands, electrical energy is taken from the grid and stored until the time of high demand when it is then converted back to electrical energy and transmitted back to the grid .
In this application premium is placed on mechanical energy storage being able to charge or discharge within a very short interval of time (in milliseconds of time). FES is the best type of mechanical energy storage system for power-based applications because of its very short response time.
