| Abstract |
To reduce greenhouse gas emissions, volatile energy production from renewable sources is highly encouraged by international agreements. This leads to balancing challenges of demand and supply which can be addressed with smart grids or even smart city concepts. Demand side management control strategies for flexibility harvesting often include energy storage systems, like flywheel- (FESS) and battery (BESS) storages. To investigate different control strategies for a hybrid energy storage system with a flywheel and battery storage in an islanded microgrid, an existing flywheel is modernized with state-of-the-art components to support real time power hardware in the loop simulations. Testing a load levelling control strategy with this test bench showed that the cyclic lifetime of the battery storage system could be increased with peak shaving due to a reduced amount of charging and discharging operations. An excessive energy buffering control method could increase the islanded operation time by using nearly 10% of the otherwise lost energy. However, these results with the testbench showed limited use for research with the current setup due to low capacity and high self-discharge rate of the existing FESS. But due to the MATLAB-based programming interface, it is perfectly suitable as an educational setup for the demonstration of possible implementations of the European Green Deal. © 2022 IEEE. |
