In a comprehensive project, Fraunhofer researchers are working on the development and testing of a novel marine pumped storage concept. There is great potential for the application of the technology in coastal locations, especially in front of large densely populated regions. Read MoreDownload files
A typical system consists of a flywheel supported by connected to a . The flywheel and sometimes motor–generator may be enclosed in a to reduce friction and energy loss. First-generation flywheel energy-storage systems use a large flywheel rotating on mechanical bearings. Newer systems use composite
