With the development of decentralized power sources based on renewable energy, power grids need smarter operations to be run properly. This paper investigates different procedures for the optimal power dispatching of a grid-connected prosumer with an energy storage consisting in a high speed flywheel. An off-line optimal scheduling for the day ahead aims at minimizing the cost with regards to t...

This paper forms a Virtual Energy Storage System (VESS) and validates that VESS is a cost-effective way to provide the function of energy storage through the utilization of the present network assets represented by flexible demand. As a solution to convert to low carbon cities, a VESS is firstly modelled to store and release energy in response to regulation signals by coordinating the demand re...

Flywheel energy storage systems (FESS) are considered as the grid integration of renewable sources due to their buit-in advantages such fast response, long cycle life and flexibility in providing auxiliary services grid, frequency regulation, voltage support. This paper introduces structure comparison results matrix converter back-to-back which integrated with axial flux permanent magnet motor ...
