The amortized capital costs are $130.26 and $92.01/kW-year for composite and steel rotor FESSs, respectively. The corresponding LCOSs are $189.94 and $146.41/MWh, respectively. Table 4. Cost summary for 20 MW/5MWh flywheel energy storage systems.
Flywheel Energy Storage (FES) uses a rotor accelerated at a very high speed and maintains the energy in the system as rotational energy. When energy is removed from the system, the flywheel's rotation is reduced due to energy conservation. Adding energy to the system increases its speed.
With the second plant, the company expects to export its flywheels to other countries that need energy storage systems. Up to 70-80% of the existing plant’s output is for the local market, adding that a flywheel weighs about 2.5 tons. Flywheel Energy Storage System (FESS) is a leading technology for storing energy.
Flywheels, one of the earliest forms of energy storage, could play a significant role in the transformation of the electrical power system into one that is fully sustainable yet low cost.
The differences in the TIC of the two systems are due to differences in rotor and bearing costs. The composite rotor flywheel energy storage system costs more than the steel rotor flywheel energy storage system because composite materials are still in the research and development stage and material and manufacturing costs are high.
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.
