Technical FAQs 4

What is a flywheel UPS system?

Flywheels can store enough power, without a battery, to run equipment until a generator takes the load. The system costs less, is easy to maintain, and is environmentally friendly. Active Power flywheel UPS systems boast easy maintenance.

What is a flywheel uninterruptible power system?

A flywheel uninterruptible power system (UPS) is used to supply continuously clean, regulated electrical power to a critical load. They are used to supply a short-term power source when there is a disruption in the mains supply (or when the mains supply is lost) and until a back-up power source, such as a generator, is up and running.

What is active power flywheel UPS?

Active Power Flywheel UPS are battery-free uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems that use the kinetic energy of a flywheel to provide backup power. Active Power flywheel technology products are designed and manufactured in Austin TX.

Can a flywheel replace a battery in a UPS system?

Flywheels appear poised to replace or supplement batteries as a backup power supply in UPS systems. Six companies currently offer DC flywheel energy storage products. Another half dozen or so are developing products they expect to bring to market within the next few years.
