The most pronounced aspect is the price associated with the storage units themselves. These units, commonly lithium-ion batteries, can set back consumers by a considerable margin ranging from ZAR 50,000 to ZAR 200,000 on average for a typical installation. [pdf]
[FAQS about South African energy storage machine prices]
Compared with other ways to store electricity, FES systems have long lifetimes (lasting decades with little or no maintenance; full-cycle lifetimes quoted for flywheels range from in excess of 10 , up to 10 , cycles of use), high (100–130 W·h/kg, or 360–500 kJ/kg), and large maximum power output. The (ratio of energy out per energy in) of flywheels, also known as round-trip efficiency, can be as high as 90%. Typical capacities range from 3 to 1. The flywheel is connected to an electrical machine that acts as a motor during charging and a generator during discharging. FES systems have been gaining attention in recent years due to their high power density, rapid charging and discharging capabilities, and long lifespan. [pdf]
