FAQS about Fly wheel battery Norfolk Island

What is the difference between a flywheel and a battery?

The physical arrangement of batteries can be designed to match a wide variety of configurations, whereas a flywheel at a minimum must occupy a certain area and volume, because the energy it stores is proportional to its rotational inertia and to the square of its rotational speed.

Are magnetic bearing flywheels better than batteries?

Magnetic bearing flywheels in vacuum enclosures, such as the NASA model depicted above, do not need any bearing maintenance and are therefore superior to batteries both in terms of total lifetime and energy storage capacity, since their effective service lifespan is still unknown.

What is a WATTsUP power flywheel?
