What is flywheel energy storage?
Flywheel energy storage (FES) is a kind of physics energy storage method exploiting a rotational block with kinetic energy that changes with the rotational speed varying [2, 3]. The speed-increasing flywheel stores energy when it is accelerated by a motor, which obtains electrical power from the grid through power electronic device driving.
Do flywheel energy storage technologies exist in China?
Author to whom correspondence should be addressed. The literature written in Chinese mainly and in English with a small amount is reviewed to obtain the overall status of flywheel energy storage technologies in China. The theoretical exploration of flywheel energy storage (FES) started in the 1980s in China.
When did flywheel energy storage start?
The theoretical exploration of flywheel energy storage (FES) started in the 1980s in China. The experimental FES system and its components, such as the flywheel, motor/generator, bearing, and power electronic devices, were researched around thirty years ago.
In the 1950s, flywheel-powered buses, known as , were used in () and () and there is ongoing research to make flywheel systems that are smaller, lighter, cheaper and have a greater capacity. It is hoped that flywheel systems can replace conventional chemical batteries for mobile applications, such as for electric vehicles. Proposed flywhe
