The 30 MW plant is the first utility-scale, grid-connected flywheel energy storage project in China and the largest one in the world. From ESS News China has connected to the grid its first large-scale standalone flywheel energy storage project in Shanxi Province’s city of Changzhi.
Throughout the process of reviewing the existing FESS applications and integration in the power system, the current research status shows that flywheel energy storage systems have the potential to provide fast and reliable frequency regulation services, which are crucial for maintaining grid stability and ensuring power quality.
Due to the advantage of flywheel, minimizing the operation times of BESS and giving priority of flywheel to respond the fluctuations is proved to be an available option to improve the life span of BESS, reduce the probability of explosion of BESS and secure operation of the hybrid energy storage system.
The station consists of 12 flywheel energy storage arrays composed of 120 flywheel energy storage units, which will be connected to the Shanxi power grid. The project will receive dispatch instructions from the grid and perform high-frequency charge and discharge operations, providing power ancillary services such as grid active power balance.
A project that contains two combined thermal power units for 600 MW nominal power coupling flywheel energy storage array, a capacity of 22 MW/4.5 MWh, settled in China. This project is the flywheel energy storage array with the largest single energy storage and single power output worldwide.
The kinetic energy stored in the flywheel is presented in Eq. (1). (1) E = 1 2 J ω 2 where E is the stored energy, J is the moment of inertia, ω is the rotational speed. The speed of the flywheel undergoes the state of charge, increasing during the energy storage stored and decreasing when discharges.
