FAQS 4

How does a flywheel energy storage system work?

Flywheel Energy Storage Systems (FESS) rely on a mechanical working principle: An electric motor is used to spin a rotor of high inertia up to 20,000-50,000 rpm. Electrical energy is thus converted to kinetic energy for storage. For discharging, the motor acts as a generator, braking the rotor to produce electricity.

How much energy can a flywheel store?

The small energy storage composite flywheel of American company Powerthu can operate at 53000 rpm and store 0.53 kWh of energy . The superconducting flywheel energy storage system developed by the Japan Railway Technology Research Institute has a rotational speed of 6000 rpm and a single unit energy storage capacity of 100 kW·h.

Are flywheel energy storage systems feasible?

Flywheel energy storage systems are feasible for short-duration applications, which are crucial for the reliability of an electrical grid with large renewable energy penetration. Flywheel energy storage system use is increasing, which has encouraged research in design improvement, performance optimization, and cost analysis.

How can flywheels be more competitive to batteries?

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.
