Flywheels for Renewable Integration

Adding Predictability to Wind and Solar Power


Temporal Power fywheels balance out the short term intermittencies caused by wind and solar power, which can cause
both local and grid-wide power quality challenges. By responding quickly to short-duration power fuctuations from
renewable generation Temporal Powers energy storage solution acts like a shock absorber, smoothing power fows to
reduce strain on the electricity system. This results in benefts to power producers, utilities and customers which include:
Increased renewable penetration
Reduced curtailment
Improved power quality
Flywheel Energy Storage Capabilities
Voltage and power quality support: The ability to provide both real and reactive power to balance local power
fuctuations caused by industrial loads or renewable energy sources helps to improve power quality and stabilize voltage
levels at the local distribution level.
Ramp rate control: The majority of ramps greater than 10% occur over a very short period of time (<1min).
The rapid response and high power of fywheels eliminates these high ramping events, resulting in smoother
power output, and a more stable power system.

Frequency control: A fywheel plant can be dispatched as a fexible grid support asset, providing direct
frequency control that responds to balancing commands from the grid operator. The rapid response of fywheels
results in more effective energy delivery than conventional generators in providing short-duration grid balancing.
Grid operators require a solution to
effciently integrate renewable energy
sources such as solar and wind power
Temporal Powers fywheel energy
storage technology helps to effectively
manage output variability, resulting in
a smooth output of power from wind
and solar

year operating life
Fully recyclable and uses non-exotic materials, allowing for low cost and high
availability of components
No harmful chemicals or emissions are used as Temporal Power utilizes fully
recyclable components, offering signifcant environmental benefts compared to
competing technologies
Use of recycled steel positions Temporal Powers fywheel as one of the greenest
solutions for energy storage worldwide
Highest energy fywheels in the world, ideal for utility scale use for multi-megawatt
energy storage projects
Full depth of discharge capability with unlimited cycling, making use of the full
range of energy capacity, without any loss in performance
Scalable design offering tremendous fexibility as fywheels are typically arrayed
in modules of 10 fywheels, but can be combined to provide almost any system size
required
