Japanese company Develops New Flywheel System For Energy Storage
A prototype flywheel has been developed by Osaka-based company, Kubotek, intended to integrate new energy sources into local power grids. The prototype is one of the largest flywheels in the world to make use of a carbon fiber design with a superconducting magnetic bearing that decreases the friction in the wheel. The prototype has been ...

In the 1950s, flywheel-powered buses, known as gyrobuses, were used in Yverdon (Switzerland) and Ghent (Belgium) and there is ongoing research to make flywheel systems that are smaller, lighter, cheaper and have a greater capacity. It is hoped that flywheel systems can replace conventional chemical batteries for mobile applications, such as for electric vehicles. Proposed flywhe…
