EDF and STORNETIC have launched a joint project on advanced smart grid storage solutions. The project will assess the performance of flywheel energy storage technology in a modern grid environment. STORNETIC will deliver a DuraStor Energy Storage device to EDF by mid-2017, which will be installed at the EDF Concept Grid site in Moret-sur-Loing near Paris.
The DuraStor enables grid operators to transform electrical energy into rotation energy and store it. It is designed for more than 1,000,000 charging cycles and retains its full capacity over its complete lifetime. The device operates mechanically, without the use of chemicals, and is made of materials that are full recyclable.
