storage capacity is measured in megawatt-hours (MWh) or kilowatt-hours (kWh). Duration: The length of time that a batt. system represents the maximum capacity that the system is designed.
Rated power capacity is the total possible instantaneous discharge capability (in kilowatts or megawatts ) of the BESS, or the maximum rate of discharge that the BESS can achieve, starting from a fully charged state. Storage duration is the amount of time storage can discharge at its power capacity before depleting its energy capacity.
As of the end of 2022, the total nameplate power capacity of operational utility-scale battery energy storage systems (BESSs) in the United States was 8,842 MW and the total energy capacity was 11,105 MWh. Most of the BESS power capacity that was operational in 2022 was installed after 2014, and about 4,807 MW was installed in 2022 alone.
Energy storage systems for electricity generation use electricity (or some other energy source, such as solar-thermal energy) to charge an energy storage system or device that is discharged to supply (generate) electricity when needed. Energy storage provides a variety of services to support electric power grids.

Author to whom correspondence should be addressed. As a form of energy storage with high power and efficiency, a flywheel energy storage system performs well in the primary frequency modulation of a power grid.
Moreover, flywheel energy storage system array (FESA) is a potential and promising alternative to other forms of ESS in power system applications for improving power system efficiency, stability and security . However, control systems of PV-FESS, WT-FESS and FESA are crucial to guarantee the FESS performance.
According to Al-Diab (2011) the flywheel energy storage system (FESS) could be exploited beneficially in dealing with many technical issues that appear regularly in distribution grids such as voltage support, grid frequency support, power quality improvement and unbalanced load compensation.
In this study, a three-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor was used as the drive motor of the system, and a simulation study on the control strategy of a flywheel energy storage system was conducted based on the primary frequency modulation of wind power.
The system compensates for the wind power output by using a wind turbine in real-time and conducting simulation experiments to verify the feasibility of the charge and discharge control strategy. At the same time, it can be verified that the flywheel energy storage system has a beneficial effect on wind power frequency modulation. 1. Introduction
