There are three main types of mechanical energy storage systems; flywheel, pumped hydro and compressed air. This paper discusses the recent advances of mechanical energy storage systems coupled with wind and solar energies in terms of their utilization.
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. Mechanical energy storage systems are among the most efficient and sustainable energy storage systems.
The first estimation of manufacturing costs of a prototype storage tank in Argentina is ~28,000–35000 USD. Considering a learning curve, for a production of 1000 units, the cost of the tank could be reduced to ~8075–10100 USD, while considering a production of 10,000 units, the projections indicate ~5300–6700 USD.
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 potential for hydrogen production in Argentina from three main renewable resources (wind energy, solar energy and biomass) has recently been analyzed [15 ]. By combining these three sources, Argentina could produce almost one billion metric tons per year of green hydrogen.
Energy storage technologies have the potential to reduce energy waste, ensure reliable energy access, and build a more balanced energy system. Over the last few decades, advancements in efficiency, cost, and capacity have made electrical and mechanical energy storage devices more affordable and accessible.
The three main categories of mechanical energy storage systems are FESS, PHES and CAES. FESS is based on storing energy for short durations in the form of kinetic energy by using a rotating mass. Indeed, it has the fastest response where it can discharge huge amount of power in few minutes however its capacity is very limited.
