Compressed-air energy storage (CAES) is a way to store energy for later use using compressed air. At a utility scale,energy generated during periods of low demand can be released during
Since there is very little friction, the flywheel spins continually with very little added energy input needed. Energy can then be drawn from the system on command by tapping into the spinning rotor as a generator. Beacon Power is building the world’s largest flywheel energy storage system in Stephentown, New York.
The 20-megawatt system marks a milestone in flywheel energy storage technology, as similar systems have only been applied in testing and small-scale applications. The system utilizes 200 carbon fiber flywheels levitated in a vacuum chamber. The flywheels absorb grid energy and can steadily discharge 1-megawatt of electricity for 15 minutes.
The electro-mechanical energy storage project uses flywheel as its storage technology. The project was announced in 2007 and was commissioned in 2011. The Beacon Power Stephentown – Flywheel Energy Storage System was developed by Beacon Power. The project is owned by Rockland Capital Energy Investments (100%).
