Are flywheel energy storage systems feasible?

Abstract - This study gives a critical review of flywheel energy storage systems and their feasibility in various applications. Flywheel energy storage systems have gained increased popularity as a method of environmentally friendly energy storage.

What are the benefits of a flywheel?

Energy Storage: It captures excess energy produced, especially from renewable sources like solar and wind, preventing wastefulness. Energy Release: When demand spikes, the energy stored in flywheels can be released quickly, stabilizing the grid and balancing loads.

What are the application areas of flywheel technology?

Application areas of flywheel technology will be discussed in this review paper in fields such as electric vehicles, storage systems for solar and wind generation as well as in uninterrupted power supply systems. Keywords - Energy storage systems, Flywheel, Mechanical batteries, Renewable energy. 1. Introduction

What is a flywheel energy management system?

An effective energy management system (EMS) is essential for the optimal functioning of a flywheel energy storage system. This component controls the charging and discharging of energy, ensuring the system operates within its designed parameters. Control Algorithms: These algorithms manage the flow of energy to and from the flywheel.
