3.2.2 Emerging Applications and R&D Efforts Flywheels are a mature technology and as such have seen few recent R&D efforts relative to newer technologies. Outside the power sector, there is interest in flywheels for applications in the public transportation sector for capturing energy that is wasted during deacceleration (Gee and Dunn 2015). 3.2.3 Example Deployment or Pilot Project Beacon Power developed a 20-MW flywheel energy storage plant in Pennsylvania to explore applications of flywheels in the regional electricity market’s fast response regulation market. This project builds on a previous FESS project in Pennsylvania that successfully demonstrated the deployment of fast response flywheel-based frequency regulation. Beacon Power began operation in September 2013 at 4 MW with full commercial operation commencing in July 2014, and the plant can charge and discharge at full rated power without restriction. The system functions year-round with over 98% availability (NETL 2015). A demonstration project by California’s Emerging Technology Coordinating Council assessed the potential value of FESS to the grid, including load shifting and ancillary services needed for grid stabilization. The financial analysis study found a proposed flywheel (6.25 kW/25 kWh) to be cost- effective on a 4-hour discharge duration demonstrating the efficiency of this flywheel to improve grid stabilization through load shifting and ancillary services (Amber Kinetics, Inc. 2015). 22 This report is available at no cost from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) at www.nrel.gov/publications.PDF Image | USAID GRID-SCALE ENERGY STORAGE TECHNOLOGIES PRIMER
