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.
When considering energy storage options, the rivalry between flywheels and batteries often comes to the forefront. Both systems harness stored energy but operate on fundamentally different principles. Flywheel systems are primarily mechanical, storing energy in rotational motion, whereas batteries store energy chemically.
A flywheel and lithium-ion battery's complementary power and energy characteristics offer grid services with an enhanced power response, energy capacity, and cycling capability with a prolonged system lifetime. Real-time power management and considering storage components' state of charge (SoC) and ramp rate are crucial for optimizing performance.
