Mechanical storage systems work on the basis of storing available and off-peak excessive electricity in the form of mechanical energy. Once the demand for electricity power overcome the available energy supply, the stored energy would be release to meet with the energy demand.
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 .
Mechanical energy storage systems are very efficient in overcoming the intermittent aspect of renewable sources. Flywheel, pumped hydro and compressed air are investigated as mechanical energy storage. Parameters that affect the coupling of mechanical storage systems with solar and wind energies are studied.
The only other mechanical energy storage concepts, besides A and B, are at the developmental stages. They primarily include the storage of gravity-based potential energy and buoyancy-based potential energy.
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.
