These include deployment of hybrid energy storage tech- and increased penetrations of renewable energy sources in the power grid. 1. Introduction
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.
Once the demand for electricity power overcome the available energy supply, the stored energy would be release to meet with the energy demand. Mechanical energy storage can be classified into three major types: Compressed air storage, Flywheel Storage and Pumped Storage.
The worldwide energy storage reliance on various energy storage technologies is shown in Fig. 1.9, where nearly half of the storage techniques are seen to be based on thermal systems (both sensible and latent, around 45%), and around third of the energy is stored in electrochemical devices (batteries).
