High-Power Flywheel Systems – Mobile
Applications
Motorsport
•
•
•
•
•
Mobile solution developed by
WF1 for KERS
Used for Porsche 911 GT3 R
Hybrid
2 x 80 hp motors connected to
front wheels
Capture regen. braking energy
going into turns, increased,
4WD power out of turns
Audi etron quattro placed 1st
and 2nd in 24 hrs of le Mans

High-Power Flywheel Systems - Technology
• Magnetically Loaded
Composite (MLC)
• Lower eddy current losses
in rotor
• Lower heat gain – higher
duty cycle
• Body of rotor – filament
wound carbon and glass
fibre composite

High-Power Flywheel Systems - Technology
• High power density for short
term, cyclical storage 200
kW peak, 1.5 kWh storage
• High duty cycle (>75%)
without loss in performance
• Long life (20 yrs)
• Low standing loss (<1%)
• High round trip efficiency
(>96%)
• Fast response time (full
power <5ms)

High-Power Flywheel Systems – Stationary
Applications
Rail Traction Systems
• Energy savings (10 – 30%)
by recovering regenerative
braking energy
• Voltage support
• Emergency reserve

High-Power Flywheel Systems – Stationary
Applications
Industrial / Mining
Applications
• Peak shaving of cyclical
demands
• Reduce capital
requirements
• Energy savings through
capturing regenerative
braking energy
• More efficient operation of
generating equipment

High-Power Flywheel Systems – Stationary
Applications
Renewable Energy
• Power conditioning
– Voltage and frequency
regulation
• Wind - diesel systems
– relaxes the operating constraints
of diesel gensets – increased
penetration of wind
• Potential for diesel off
operation in small systems
