These are 16,000 rpm flywheels and the implied energy density is only 9.6 W h/kg. The flywheels have integral driving motors and inverters housed in a cylindrical cage approximately 1.06 m in diameter and 2.08 m high. In this application, 20 units are employed with aggregated ratings of 2 MW and 500 kW h.
This high-speed FESS stores 2.8 kWh energy, and can keep a 100-W light on for 24 hours. Some FESS design considerations such as cooling system, vacuum pump, and housing will be simplified since the ISS is situated in a vacuum space. In addition to storing energy, the flywheel in the ISS can be used in navigation.
