Technical FAQs 4

How does a flywheel energy storage system work?

Flywheel Energy Storage Systems (FESS) rely on a mechanical working principle: An electric motor is used to spin a rotor of high inertia up to 20,000-50,000 rpm. Electrical energy is thus converted to kinetic energy for storage. For discharging, the motor acts as a generator, braking the rotor to produce electricity.

What is a flywheel energy storage system (fess)?

Flywheel energy storage systems (FESS) use electric energy input which is stored in the form of kinetic energy. Kinetic energy can be described as “energy of motion,” in this case the motion of a spinning mass, called a rotor. The rotor spins in a nearly frictionless enclosure.

Can flywheel energy storage be combined with other energy storage technologies?

Hybrid Energy Storage Systems: Flywheel energy storage could be combined with other energy storage technologies such as batteries or pumped hydro to create hybrid energy storage systems. Hybrid systems could provide the benefits of both technologies, extending the useful length of time they can provide electricity.

How does a flywheel work?

When charging, electrical energy from the grid or a power source is used to accelerate the flywheel to very high speeds. This is done by the motor/generator acting as a motor, converting electrical energy into kinetic energy and storing it in the spinning flywheel.
