Energy storage in flywheels A flywheel stores energy in a rotating mass. Depending on the inertia and speed of the rotating mass, a given amount of kinetic energy is stored as rotational energy. The flywheel is placed inside a vacuum containment to eliminate friction-loss from the air and suspended by bearings for a stabile operation.
To solve this problem, London-based startup Levistor has developed an innovative Flywheel Energy Storage System (FESS), which acts as a kinetic battery. This technology stores energy from the grid during periods of low demand and releases it rapidly when an EV needs a quick charge. It can deliver 100 miles of range in just five minutes.
2. Renewable Energy Integration These systems are particularly effective for integrating renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar. Flywheels can store excess energy generated during peak production times and release it when generation is low, ensuring a consistent energy supply.
Small-scale flywheel energy storage systems have relatively low specific energy figures once volume and weight of containment is comprised. But the high specific power possible, constrained only by the electrical machine and the power converter interface, makes this technology more suited for buffer storage applications.
Later in the 1970s flywheel energy storage was proposed as a primary objective for electric vehicles and stationary power backup. At the same time fibre composite rotors where built, and in the 1980s magnetic bearings started to appear .
