5. Mechanical energy storage coupled to hybrid systems Hybrid systems are used to increase the utilizations of renewable energy as well as to combine the advantages of the different types of MESSs. They also allow to decrease the negative effects of fuel power cycles and to combine between different sources of energy.
The three main categories of mechanical energy storage systems are FESS, PHES and CAES. FESS is based on storing energy for short durations in the form of kinetic energy by using a rotating mass. Indeed, it has the fastest response where it can discharge huge amount of power in few minutes however its capacity is very limited.
