Flywheel energy storage independent power station

4 FAQs about Flywheel energy storage independent power station

What is a flywheel-storage power system?

A flywheel-storage power system uses a flywheel for grid energy storage, (see Flywheel energy storage) and can be a comparatively small storage facility with a peak power of up to 20 MW. It typically is used to stabilize to some degree power grids, to help them stay on the grid frequency, and to serve as a short-term compensation storage.
