Flywheel energy storage systems (FESSs) are a type of energy storage technology that can improve the stability and quality of the power grid. Compared with other energy storage systems, FESSs offer numerous advantages, including a long lifespan, exceptional efficiency, high power density, and minimal environmental impact.
A flywheel/kinetic energy storage system (FESS) is a type of energy storage system that uses a spinning rotor to store energy. Thanks to its unique advantages such as long life cycles, high power density, minimal environmental impact, and high power quality such as fast response and voltage stability, FESS is gaining attention recently.
In aerospace, flywheels are being considered as a power source for spacecraft, which are mainly powered by solar energy. The idea is that Flywheel Energy Storage Systems (FESS) will bridge the energy gap when the spacecraft goes into darkness.
Other opportunities for flywheels are new applications in energy harvest, hybrid energy systems, and flywheel’s secondary functionality apart from energy storage. The use of new materials and compact designs will increase the specific energy and energy density to make flywheels more competitive to batteries.
In 2010, Beacon Power began testing of their Smart Energy 25 (Gen 4) flywheel energy storage system at a wind farm in Tehachapi, California. The system was part of a wind power/flywheel demonstration project being carried out for the California Energy Commission.
The flywheel can be introduced into a wind farm setup to store excess energy during peak production times, to later be released back into the grid at times when there is no wind. The development of suitable FESS is being researched to improve the overall system stability and energy quality in current solar and wind energy systems.
