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.
A flywheel is driven by a reversible electric machine that initially operates as a motor to supply energy to the inertial mass. With the drive system disconnected, the flywheel stores energy in its rotation. Upon request, this latter will be transformed into electrical energy by the generator.
The speed of the flywheel undergoes the state of charge, increasing during the energy storage stored and decreasing when discharges. A motor or generator (M/G) unit plays a crucial role in facilitating the conversion of energy between mechanical and electrical forms, thereby driving the rotation of the flywheel .
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.
Our BESS energy storage systems and photovoltaic foldable container solutions are engineered for reliability, safety, and efficient deployment. All systems include comprehensive monitoring and control systems with remote management capabilities.
