The anatomy of a flywheel energy storage device. Image used courtesy of Sino Voltaics A major benefit of a flywheel as opposed to a conventional battery is that their expected service life is not dependent on the number of charging cycles or age. The more one charges and discharges the device in a standard battery, the more it degrades.
A project team from Graz University of Technology (TU Graz) recently developed a prototype flywheel storage system that can store electrical energy and provide fast charging capabilities. Flywheels are considered one of the world’s oldest forms of energy storage, yet they are still relevant today.
The energy storage facility provided by flywheels are suitable for continuous charging and discharging options without any dependency on the age of the storage system. The important aspect to be taken note of in this regard is the ability of FES to provide inertia and frequency regulation .
Fig. 7.8 shows the integration of the flywheel energy storage system with the grid. In this method the stored energy is transferred to the grid by a generator, alternative current (AC)/direct current (DC) rectifier circuit, and DC/AC inverter circuit. Figure 7.8.
