Final Technical Report (30 Dec 2015).docx
Amber Kinetics saw a path for developing a four-‐hour duration steel flywheel capable of meeting the two important criteria set forth: low $/kWh cost and low self-‐discharge rate. In this program, Amber
The system consists of a 40-foot container with 28 flywheel storage units, electronics enclosure, 750 V DC-circuitry, cooling, and a vacuum system. Costs for grid inverter, energy management system,
A typical system consists of a flywheel supported by rolling-element bearing connected to a motor–generator. The flywheel and sometimes motor–generator may be enclosed in a vacuum chamber to reduce friction and energy loss.
First-generation flywheel energy-storage systems use a large steel flywheel rotating on mechanical bearings. Newer systems use carbon-fiber composite rotors that have a hi
