The 100 kilowatt (kW) and 200kW flywheel energy storage devices developed by Sinomach-HE are industry leaders in China. The company said it will continue to promote research into flywheel energy storage equipment to further the technical development of the industry.
Flywheel batteries are probably the most compact energy storage systems that can be designed with the lowest environmental impact and highest durability. Not quite domestic, but the technology keeps maturing. It's better suited for leveling short-lived and massive power needs rather than storing energy for days (note the 7%/hr loss below).
It would probably have to be in a cement enclosure, and in Florida a sump pump to keep it dry. A 1,000kg, 5m, 200RPM flywheel would store 685,567J of energy if it was shaped like a disc. That's 0.19kWh of energy — enough to boil the water for about seven (7) cups of tea or run a typical airconditioner for about 10 minutes.
Sinomach-HE takes its flywheel energy storage device as a long-term product that will boost its high quality development. It has full independent intellectual property rights and 13 patents, and has been included among national major technical equipment and national green data center recommended products.
