A FESS is an electromechanical system that stores energy in form of kinetic energy. A mass rotates on two magnetic bearings in order to decrease friction at high speed, coupled with an electric machine. The entire structure is placed in a vacuum to reduce wind shear [118], [97], [47], [119], [234].

Ultra-capacitor, fuel cell, battery, flywheel, and SMES are the energy storage technologies, which have been particularly used in wind energy for power smoothing applications. Therefore, these energy storage technologies can be helpful in smoothing electric power for shipboard microgrids as well. Figure 16.
