A FLYWHEEL ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM BREAKTHROUGH

摘要

Following a great deal of research and engineering, Ricardo says it has achieved a breakthrough in its novel Kinergy hermetically sealed, high-speed flywheel energy storage device. A significant improvement in the magnetic coupling and gearing system has now taken its efficiency to better than that of a conventional geared drive, consolidating Kinergy's position as perhaps the most promising high speed flywheel concept currently available.
