What is a beacon power flywheel?

The Beacon Power Flywheel , which includes a composite rotor and an electric machine, is designed for frequency regulation. Fig. 1 has been produced to illustrate the flywheel energy storage system, including its sub-components and the related technologies.

Are flywheel systems a good choice for solar power generation?

Flywheel systems are ideal for this form of energy time-shifting. Here’s why: Solar power generation peaks in the middle of the day, but energy demand peaks in the late afternoon and early evening. Flywheels can quickly absorb excess solar energy during the day and rapidly discharge it as demand increases.
