Vaal University of Technology, Vanderbijlpark, Sou th Africa. Abstract - This study gives a critical review of flywheel energy storage systems and their feasibility in various applications. Flywheel energy storage systems have gained increased popularity as a method of environmentally friendly energy storage.
The use of new materials and compact designs will increase the specific energy and energy density to make flywheels more competitive to batteries. Other opportunities are new applications in energy harvest, hybrid energy systems, and flywheel's secondary functionality apart from energy storage.

The construction process of energy storage power stations involves multiple key stages, each of which requires careful planning and execution to ensure smooth implementation.
Energy storage is one of the key technologies supporting the operation of future power energy systems. The practical engineering applications of large-scale energy storage power stations are increasing, and evaluating their actual operation effects is of great significance.
Battery storage power stations are usually composed of batteries, power conversion systems (inverters), control systems and monitoring equipment.

With the increasing integration of multi-energy microgrid (MEM) and shared energy storage station (SESS), the coordinated operation between MEM and energy storage systems becomes critical. To solve the problems of high operating costs in independent configuration of microgrid and high influence of renewable energy output uncertainty.
A multi-energy microgrid system with shared energy storage station is constructed. A multi-stage robust optimal scheduling model is proposed. The column and constraint generation algorithm with an alternating iteration strategy is proposed.
This indicates that the shared energy storage model significantly reduces the microgrid's dependence on the grid while enhancing the utilization rate of energy storage. This is because SESS has lower power losses and costs, making microgrids more inclined to use energy storage systems when providing SESS services.
Control of microgrid with a considerable number of distributed energy resources, small energy storage units, and electric vehicles require flexible and scalable control strategies.

Among them, the power and capacity configurations of self-built energy storage show a downward trend; the power and capacity configurations of leased energy storage keep increasing. This indicates that the microgrid cluster system reduces operational risks by increasing SES power and capacity configurations.
