Flywheel Energy Storage System Applications An FESS is suitable for various applications ranging from large-scale power grids to small-scale households. Rather than large-scale manufacturing equipment, FESS arrays are generally used to achieve high-power and high-capacity storage, allowing a more flexible power configuration.
A project team from Graz University of Technology (TU Graz) recently developed a prototype flywheel storage system that can store electrical energy and provide fast charging capabilities. Flywheels are considered one of the world’s oldest forms of energy storage, yet they are still relevant today.
The Amber Kinetics flywheel is the first commercialized four-hour discharge, long-duration Flywheel Energy Storage System (FESS) solution powered by advanced technology that stores 32 kWh of energy in a two-ton steel rotor. Individual flywheels can be scaled up to tens or even hundreds of megawatts.
Then there were gyroscopic-induced handling issues. Despite its first-glance attractiveness, flywheel-based energy storage presents multiple major challenges. The stored energy is proportional to the rotor wheel’s moment of inertia and the square of the rotational speed, so you want that rpm to be pretty high: 50 to 100k rpm is not usual.
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. It is the largest energy storage composite flywheel developed in recent years .
While many papers compare different ESS technologies, only a few research , studies design and control flywheel-based hybrid energy storage systems. Recently, Zhang et al. present a hybrid energy storage system based on compressed air energy storage and FESS.
