Just Have a Think | Flywheel reinvention revolutionising our power grids! @JustHaveaThink | Uploaded January 2023 | Updated October 2024, 16 hours ago.
Flywheels are an ancient technology going right back to the potters wheels of 3,000BC. But this simple technology is now being developed to provide kinetic inertia that can help stabilise the voltage frequency of utility grids around the world. So could this be another step on the way to full grid decarbonisation in the coming years?
