Technical FAQs 4

What is a flywheel energy storage system?

Flywheel energy storage systems are designed for regenerative braking applications, to supplement DC power in uninterruptible power systems (UPS), or for energy storage applications in power grids. Flywheel braking systems utilize a regenerative brake or other hybrid kinetic energy recovery system (KERS).

What is a flywheel power system?

Flywheel power systems, also known as flywheel energy storage (FES) systems, are power storage devices that store kinetic energy in a rotating flywheel. The flywheel rotors are coupled with an integral motor-generator that is contained in the housing. The motor-generator is used to store and then harness energy from the rotating flywheel.

Could flywheels be the future of energy storage?

Flywheels, one of the earliest forms of energy storage, could play a significant role in the transformation of the electri-cal power system into one that is fully sustainable yet low cost.

Is a flywheel energy storage unit a novel uninterruptible power supply?
