Flywheel energy storage systems are suitable and economical when frequent charge and discharge cycles are required. Furthermore, flywheel batteries have high power density and a low environmental footprint. Various techniques are being employed to improve the efficiency of the flywheel, including the use of composite materials.
A grid-scale flywheel energy storage system is able to respond to grid operator control signal in seconds and able to absorb the power fluctuation for as long as 15 minutes. Flywheel storage has proven to be useful in trams.
They can be installed at the transmission or distribution levels or even in remote connected or isolated grids. The modular and distributed architecture of Beacon flywheel energy storage systems allows flexibility in power capacity as well as siting. A single flywheel module easily connects to others, allowing for incremental storage expansion.
However, the high cost of purchase and maintenance of solar batteries has been a major hindrance. Flywheel energy storage systems are suitable and economical when frequent charge and discharge cycles are required. Furthermore, flywheel batteries have high power density and a low environmental footprint.
