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.
Flywheels can be expected to last upwards of 20 years and cycle more than 20,000 times, which is high in comparison to lead-acid (2,000 cycles), lithium-ion (<10,000 cycles) and sodium-sulfur batteries (2,500-6,000 cycles). Another advantage is the flywheel energy storage system’s ability to provide energy with little start up or transition time.
The cost of a flywheel energy storage system is $6,000. Each kilowatt is priced at $1,333 a kilowatt. This flywheel energy storage design is a viable electricity source in homes. It functions to meet peak power demands within 25 seconds, allowing for significant savings in energy costs.
The first study combined flywheels with lead-acid batteries to store energy from a wind power system. This combination utilized the quick response time of a flywheel and the longer discharge duration of a battery. This prompted common use of flywheels in conjunction with batteries as a quick-burst power option.
