TL;DR: In this paper, a review of several energy storage technologies for wind power applications is presented, where the main objectives of the article are the introduction of the operating principles, as well as the presentation of the main characteristics of ESS technologies suitable for stationary applications, and the definition and discussion of potential ESS applications in wind power according to an extensive literature review.

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the requirements set by Grid Codes, but also on control methods of wind turbines for their participation in primary frequency control and synthetic inertia is presented. But the authors do not consider the effect of non-synchronized renewable-based power plants (e.g., wind and solar).

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the possible multi-microgrid architectures to form a grid of microgrids and compared the different architectures in terms of cost, scalability, protection, reliability, stability, communications and business models.

TL;DR: In this paper, an energy management strategy for a flywheel-based energy storage device is proposed to smooth the net power flow injected to the grid by a variable speed wind turbine.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors deal with the design and the experimental validation in scale-lab test benches of an energy management algorithm based on feedback control techniques for a flywheel energy storage device.
