“…The storage system can store excess energy and supply this back to the load when demand is high, hence helping to smooth the energy generation profile. Some of the storage systems that can be considered include a flywheel [170,171], compressed air [172,173], supercapacitors [174][175][176], fuel cells [7,177], and batteries [178,179]. Different types of energy storage systems have been used in literature for wind energy systems [180].…”

The building block of all economies across the world is subject to the medium in which energy is harnessed. Renewable energy is currently one of the recommended substitutes for fossil fuels due to its environmentally friendly nature. Wind energy, which is considered as one of the promising renewable energy forms, has gained lots of attention in the last few decades due to its sustainability as well as viability. This review presents a detailed investigation into this technology as well as factors impeding its commercialization. General selection guidelines for the available wind turbine technologies are presented. Prospects of various components associated with wind energy conversion systems are thoroughly discussed with their limitations equally captured in this report. The need for further optimization techniques in terms of design and materials used for the development of each component is highlighted.

“…5,6 Currently, ESSs plays a significant role in the electrical network by storing electrical energy, converting it into various forms, and supplying it whenever necessary, in the form of electricity. [7][8][9] Many authors have described various kinds of ESSs such as battery ESS (BESS), 10 compressed air ESS (CAESS), 11 supercapacitor ESS (SCESS), 12 thermal ESS (TESS), 13 superconducting magnetic ESS (SMESS), 14,15 hydrogen ESS (HESS), 16 pumped hydro ESS (PHESS), 17 and flywheel ESS (FESS). [18][19][20] A comparative study of different ESSs and their advantages and disadvantages are presented in Table 1.…”

Energy storage systems (ESSs) are the technologies that have driven our society to an extent where the management of the electrical network is easily feasible. The balance in supply-demand, stability, voltage and frequency lag control, and improvement in power quality are the significant attributes that fascinate the world toward the ESS technology. However, being one of the oldest ESS, the flywheel ESS (FESS) has acquired the tendency to raise itself among others being eco-friendly and storing energy up to megajoule (MJ). Along with these, FESS also surpasses the quality of high power density, longer life cycle, higher rate of charge and discharge cycle, and greater efficiency. In this article, an overview of the FESS has been discussed concerning its background theory, structure with its associated components, characteristics, applications, cost model, control approach, stability

The urgent energy transition needs a better penetration of renewable energy in the world’s energy mix. The intermittency of renewables requires the use of longer-term storage. The present system uses water displacement, in a lined rock cavern or in an aerial pressurised vessel, as the virtual piston of compressor and expander functions in a carbon dioxide heat pump cycle (HPC) and in an organic transcritical cycle (OTC). Within an impermeable membrane, carbon dioxide is compressed and expanded by filling and emptying pumped-hydro water. Carbon dioxide exchanges heat with two atmospheric thermal storage pits. The hot fluid and ice pits are charged by the HPC when renewable energy becomes available and discharged by the OTC when electricity is needed. A numerical model was built to replicate the system’s losses and to calculate its round-trip efficiency (RTE). A subsequent parametric study highlights key parameters for sizing and optimisation. With an expected RTE of around 70%, this CO2 PHES (pumped-hydro electricity storage) coupled with PTES (pumped thermal energy storage) could become a game-changer by allowing the efficient storage of intermittent renewable energy and by integrating with district heating and cooling networks, as required by cities and industry in the future.
