A review of flywheel energy storage systems: state of the art
Primary candidates for large-deployment capable, scalable solutions can be narrowed down to three: Li-ion batteries, supercapacitors, and flywheels. The lithium-ion battery has a high
Image: Shenzen Energy Group. A project in China, claimed as the largest flywheel energy storage system in the world, has been connected to the grid. The first flywheel unit of the Dinglun Flywheel Energy Storage Power Station in Changzhi City, Shanxi Province, was connected by project owner Shenzen Energy Group recently.
Our flywheel energy storage device is built to meet the needs of utility grid operators and C&I buildings. Torus Spin, our flywheel battery, stores energy kinetically. In doing so, it avoids many of the limitations of chemical batteries.
The Dinglun Flywheel Energy Storage Power Station, the World's Largest Flywheel Energy Storage Project, represents a significant step forward in sustainable energy. Its role in grid frequency regulation and support for renewable energy will help stabilize power systems as China continues to increase its reliance on wind and solar energy.
The use of new materials and compact designs will increase the specific energy and energy density to make flywheels more competitive to batteries. Other opportunities are new applications in energy harvest, hybrid energy systems, and flywheel's secondary functionality apart from energy storage.
