Abstract: New design of flywheel energy storage system incorporating a compartmentalized, water tank-like structure.

The most common method of energy storage is with electrochemical batteries which have the disadvantages of environmental and health hazards, short lifespans, limited number of charge cycles and high maintenance costs. A need for more environmentally-friendly, cost-effective, and relatively safe … Continue reading
