20 April 2024 | Ahmed Aghmadi and Osama A. Mohammed
The paper "Energy Storage Systems: Technologies and High-Power Applications" by Ahmed Aghmadi and Osama A. Mohammed provides a comprehensive overview of recent advancements in high-power energy storage technologies and their applications. The authors highlight the critical role of energy storage systems in modern energy infrastructure, particularly in addressing efficiency, power quality, and reliability challenges in DC/AC power systems. They discuss the importance of these systems in ensuring grid stability and seamless integration with renewable energy sources, as well as their applications in aircraft, shipboard systems, and electric vehicles. The paper covers various high-power storage technologies, including supercapacitors, superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES), and flywheels, which are characterized by high power density and rapid response times. These technologies are ideal for applications requiring rapid charging and discharging, such as in power systems dealing with critical and pulse loads, transportation systems, and power grids. Hybrid energy storage systems (HESSs) are also discussed, emphasizing their enhanced flexibility and resilience. HESSs integrate multiple storage technologies, such as batteries, supercapacitors, and flywheels, to optimize energy density, power density, efficiency, and cycle life. The paper provides a detailed analysis of the advantages and limitations of these technologies in different applications, including microgrids, transportation systems, and large-scale power grids. The authors further explore the practical implications of high-power storage technologies in various scenarios, such as frequency regulation, voltage control, grid resilience, and oscillation damping. They highlight the importance of these technologies in maintaining grid stability and reliability, especially in the context of renewable energy integration. Finally, the paper discusses the military applications of high-power energy storage systems, emphasizing their role in providing reliable, portable, and adaptable power solutions in remote or hostile environments. The rapid response capabilities of these systems are particularly beneficial for military operations, ensuring sustained connectivity and mission success. Overall, the paper offers a detailed and comprehensive review of the latest advancements and applications of high-power energy storage technologies, providing valuable insights for researchers, engineers, and policymakers in the field of energy storage.The paper "Energy Storage Systems: Technologies and High-Power Applications" by Ahmed Aghmadi and Osama A.
