It is used in grid power cuts with this feature. Thanks to the power electronics and composite material technology, the flywheel energy storage system performances are increasing.

What is a flywheel energy storage system?

A typical flywheel energy storage system, which includes a flywheel/rotor, an electric machine, bearings, and power electronics. Fig. 3. The Beacon Power Flywheel, which includes a composite rotor and an electric machine, is designed for frequency regulation.

How long does a flywheel energy storage system last?

Flywheel energy storage systems have a long working life if periodically maintained (>25 years). The cycle numbers of flywheel energy storage systems are very high (>100,000). In addition, this storage technology is not affected by weather and climatic conditions . One of the most important issues of flywheel energy storage systems is safety.

Why do flywheel energy storage systems have a high speed?

There are losses due to air friction and bearing in flywheel energy storage systems. These cause energy losses with self-discharge in the flywheel energy storage system. The high speeds have been achieved in the rotating body with the developments in the field of composite materials.
