Can a flywheel store energy?
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.
How does a flywheel work?
A flywheel operates on the principle of storing energy through its rotating mass. Think of it as a mechanical storage tool that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy for storage. This energy is stored in the form of rotational kinetic energy.
What is a flywheel energy storage device?
Meet our flywheel energy storage device built to meet the needs of utility grid operators and C&I buildings. Nova Spin, our flywheel battery, stores energy kinetically. In doing so, it avoids many of the limitations of chemical batteries.
What is a flywheel energy storage system (fess)?
Think of it as a mechanical storage tool that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy for storage. This energy is stored in the form of rotational kinetic energy. Typically, the energy input to a Flywheel Energy Storage System (FESS) comes from an electrical source like the grid or any other electrical source.
Why are flywheel energy storage systems made with high-strength steel?
From a cost perspective, flywheel energy storage systems made with high-strength steels are ideal for maximizing energy per dollar spent. High-strength steel flywheels offer high energy density (energy per volume) because of their high mass density. Additionally, they outperform composite materials in terms of thermal conductivity and availability.
How to connect flywheel energy storage system (fess) to an AC grid?
To connect the Flywheel Energy Storage System (FESS) to an AC grid, another bi-directional converter is necessary. This converter can be single-stage (AC-DC) or double-stage (AC-DC-AC). The power electronic interface has a high power capability, high switching frequency, and high efficiency.
