| Summary: | Energy storage systems, via their peak shaving applications, provide sustainable options for boosting the current
capacity of distribution networks to ensure their continued safe and dependable operation in the face of rising load demands and a greater share of renewable energy generation. This study looks at the feasibility of using a flywheel energy storage technology in an IEEE bus test distribution network to mitigate peak demand. Energy losses in a simulated flywheel system
are measured using an experimental setup, and an empirical model is built to account for these losses. Additionally, the
peak power of the feeder is measured together with the energy lost from the flywheel using an optimum power flow
calculation. |
