2. Flywheel energy storage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flywheel_energy_storage

   Flywheel energy storage (FES) works by accelerating a rotor (flywheel) to a very high speed and maintaining the energy in the system as rotational energy. When energy is extracted from the system, the flywheel's rotational speed is reduced as a consequence of the principle of conservation of energy; adding energy to the system correspondingly ...

3. Compressed-air energy storage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressed-air_energy_storage

   Compressed-air energy storage (CAES) is a way to store energy for later use using compressed air. At a utility scale, energy generated during periods of low demand can be released during peak load periods.

4. Flywheel storage power system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flywheel_storage_power_system

   A flywheel-storage power system uses a flywheel for energy storage, (see Flywheel energy storage) and can be a comparatively small storage facility with a peak power of up to 20 MW. It typically is used to stabilize to some degree power grids, to help them stay on the grid frequency, and to serve as a short-term compensation storage.

5. Energy storage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_storage

   Storage capacity is the amount of energy extracted from an energy storage device or system; usually measured in joules or kilowatt-hours and their multiples, it may be given in number of hours of electricity production at power plant nameplate capacity; when storage is of primary type (i.e., thermal or pumped-water), output is sourced only with ...

6. Home energy storage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Home_Energy_Storage

   Home energy storage devices store electricity locally, for later consumption. Electrochemical energy storage products, also known as " Battery Energy Storage System " (or " BESS " for short), at their heart are rechargeable batteries, typically based on lithium-ion or lead-acid controlled by computer with intelligent software to handle charging ...

7. Hybrid power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_power

   Hybrid power are combinations between different technologies to produce power. In power engineering, the term 'hybrid' describes a combined power and energy storage system. [1] Examples of power producers used in hybrid power are photovoltaics, wind turbines, Wind-hydrogen system and various types of engine-generators – e.g. diesel gen-sets.
