These include deployment of hybrid energy storage technologies, multi-functional applications of mechanical energy storage systems through appropriate control methodologies and proper sizing strategies for cost effectiveness and increased penetrations of renewable energy sources in the power grid. Block diagram of mechanical energy storage systems.
In this service, mechanical energy storage technologies, such as PHS, CAES, and GES are used to store energy during the time of excess production of power and to inject back energy into the grid during limited generation of power. In this service, power is delivered by the storage technology for several hours.
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.
Another theoretical mechanical stored energy concept is called the gravity power storage system. Unlike the hydraulic rock storage system described in Abschn. 9.3.2.1, the dimensions of the gravity power system are small. The storage principle is also slightly different, since it uses the same principle as the power tower system (Abschn. 9.3.2.3 ).
A location with stable rock where a firm cylinder can be exposed is generally required to build a mechanical energy storage system. For safe construction and operation, rock with even layers and limited fissures is preferable but not required. Steep cliffs of compact sandstone and limestone located at the coast would work well.
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.
