It is located at Poolbeg Energy Hub, where ESB – around 95% owned by the Irish state with the remaining stake held by its employees – is planning to deploy a combination of
In Stephentown, New York, Beacon Power operates in a flywheel storage power plant with 200 flywheels of 25 kWh capacity and 100 kW of power. Ganged together this gives 5 MWh capacity and 20 MW of power. The units operate at a peak speed at 15,000 rpm. The rotor flywheel consists of wound CFRP fibers which are filled with resin. The installation is intended primarily for frequency c
The temporary reserve power plant will be installed at ESB''s existing North Wall Power Plant in Dublin, expected to provide backup power for the

These storage facilities consist of individual flywheels in a modular design. Energy up to 150 kWh can be absorbed or released per flywheel. Through combinations of several such flywheel accumulators, which are individually housed in buried underground vacuum tanks, a total power of up to several tens of MWh can be achieved.
In Ontario, Canada, Temporal Power Ltd. has operated a flywheel storage power plant since 2014. It consists of 10 flywheels made of steel. Each flywheel weighs four tons and is 2.5 meters high. The maximum rotational speed is 11,500 rpm. The maximum power is 2 MW. The system is used for frequency regulation.
Baden, Switzerland – December 19, 2022 - GE Gas Power (NYSE: GE) and MYTILINEOS, today announced they have secured an order from the Electricity Supply Board of Ireland (ESB) for the construction of a new gas-fired power plant in Dublin, within ESB's existing North Wall Power Plant.
China has the largest grid-scale flywheel energy storage plant in the world with 30 MW capacity. The system was connected to the grid in 2024 and it was the first such system in China. In the United States, Beacon Power operates two 20 MW grid-scale flywheel energy storage plants in Stephentown, New York and Hazle Township, Pennsylvania.
