Image: Shenzen Energy Group. A project in China, claimed as the largest flywheel energy storage system in the world, has been connected to the grid. The first flywheel unit of the Dinglun Flywheel Energy Storage Power Station in Changzhi City, Shanxi Province, was connected by project owner Shenzen Energy Group recently.
Flywheel energy storage technology works with a large, vacuum structure-encased spinning cylinder. To charge, electricity is used to drive a motor to spin the flywheel, and to discharge the motor acts as a generator to convert the spinning motion’s energy back into electricity.
From ESS News China has connected to the grid its first large-scale standalone flywheel energy storage project in Shanxi Province’s city of Changzhi. The Dinglun Flywheel Energy Storage Power Station broke ground in July last year.
The station consists of 12 flywheel energy storage arrays composed of 120 flywheel energy storage units, which will be connected to the Shanxi power grid. The project will receive dispatch instructions from the grid and perform high-frequency charge and discharge operations, providing power ancillary services such as grid active power balance.
The Dinglun Flywheel Energy Storage Power Station, the World’s Largest Flywheel Energy Storage Project, represents a significant step forward in sustainable energy. Its role in grid frequency regulation and support for renewable energy will help stabilize power systems as China continues to increase its reliance on wind and solar energy.
The 30 MW plant is the first utility-scale, grid-connected flywheel energy storage project in China and the largest one in the world. From ESS News China has connected to the grid its first large-scale standalone flywheel energy storage project in Shanxi Province’s city of Changzhi.
