“…However, due to the intermittent and stochastic nature of the wind, the generated power from the wind fluctuates randomly thus can cause frequency fluctuation in power system and therefore Some methods have been proposed so far for mitigating the fluctuations. In many studies, a flywheel energy system is proposed to smooth the wind power fluctuation [3]. It is possible to smooth the fluctuations up to a certain range by the pitch angle controller [4].…”

This paper presents Permanent Magnet Synchronous generator (PMSG) based a variable speed wind turbine systems including energy capacitor system (ECS). The ECS is the combination of electric double layer capacitor (EDLC) known as supercapacitor and power electronic devices for wind power application with its detailed modeling and control strategy which can supply smooth electrical power to the power grid and makes the system better stable and reliable. As generated power from wind fluctuates randomly, the objective of this control system is to select a line power reference level and to follow the reference level by absorbing or providing active power to or from ECS to smooth output power fluctuation penetrated to the grid and to keep the wind farm terminal voltage at a desired level by supplying necessary reactive power. The performance of the proposed system is investigated by simulation analysis using PSCAD/EMTDC software.

“…In [6,7], a flywheel energy storage system is proposed for smoothing wind farm output, but the flywheel energy system has complicated control strategy. Utilization of Flexible AC Transmission System (FACT) devices such as Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM), Static Var Compensator (SVC), and Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) have become the better choice due to their advantages of flexible power flow control and good damping solution for power system dynamic oscillations [8,10].…”

-In this paper an application of centralized pitch angle controller for fixed speed wind turbines based wind farm to mitigate load frequency fluctuation is presented. Reference signal for the pitch angle of each wind turbine is calculated by using proposed centralized control system based on wind speed information. The wind farm in the model system is connected to a multi machine power system which is composed of 4 synchronous generators and a load. Simulation analyses have been carried out to investigate the performance of the controller using real wind speed data. It is concluded that the load frequency of the system can be controlled smoothly.

“…In this kind of application, the use of an ESS also reduces the number of stop/start cycles of the diesel engine, increasing its life cycle and saving fuel [2]. Flywheel energy storage represents a popular storage medium for a wide range of powers owing to its reliability, long life, and low cost [3].…”

In this paper, a power smoothing system, based on a switched reluctance machine (SRM) driving a flywheel, is presented. The SRM is controlled to operate as a motor or generator storing/or retrieving energy from a rotating flywheel. The control is based on a two-dimensional (2-D) look-up table. Experimental results obtained from a small prototype of 2 kW are presented, showing the high level of performance obtained with the proposed power-smoothing scheme.
