2.3 Available ESS (Energy Storage Systems) Technologies
ОглавлениеThe energy storage system has been used in power systems for a very long time. The energy storage technology also enables high intervention and incorporation of variable renewable energy sources for grid application. It has a critical role in improving the working abilities of the grid. ESS can be categorised as mechanical, electro-chemical, electrical and thermal systems based on its characteristics, as shown in Table 2.1.
Table 2.1 Classification of ESS [5].
| Mechanical | • Pumped Hydro Storage (PHS)• Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES)• Flywheel Energy Storage Systems (FESS |
| Electro-Chemical | • Hydrogen Storage• Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) |
| Electrical | • Super-conducting Magnet Energy Storage (SMES)• Electric Double Layer Capacitors or Super-capacitors (SCES) |
| Thermal | • Molten Salt Storage• Adiabatic CAES |
